Title: I'm in a rumor-mongering mood!
Post by: Kieran on April 14, 2001, 09:05:00 PM: Perhaps the latest announced aircraft have excited you, perhaps not, but it appears that there may be something going on here that has, to this point anyway, gone unnoticed- it looks like the planeset is beginning to move backward a bit.

Think about it. Ki-61. P-47 Razorback. P-51B. C202. Me109-F. Spitfire Vb. F6F. Ju88A4. Fw190A5. Though by no means a comprehensive list of early/mid-war aircraft, it would seem there is the possibility of a backwards progression in rides. If I am right, we should soon see a variant of the Zeke (A6m3), a Hurricane, maybe a P-40....

hmmmmmm. Anyone want to add to the list?

LOL...I remember that one! :)

Back to topic:
I'm still hoping for a few more IJN aircraft. I always had a blast flying the Val. Yeah, it gets shot down a lot....but it sure is FUN to fly. It's also a great training tool for newbies too. It slows down the fight and helps them learn some basic ACM skills.

Post by: Downtown on April 14, 2001, 10:55:00 PM: My sig of When is more than asking HTC when a P-40 will be introduced.

I am still anxiously following the possibilty of the aircraft in my sig being raised from a lake in China, brought to the US to be restored, and then going on a World Tour.

I used to have the WAV file made from the ATC Tape of the Commercial Airline pilot that called it into the Tower.

You mean you lost it?

Any possibility you can resurrect it?
If so, could you post?

Thanks
