Rip, the secret plane didn't make it into the release. I also know what it is, and oh boy, it will make for some interesting BBS "discussion". Think Jerry Springer. :D

Well since we had names and/or screenshots of all planes released in 1.09 relatively long time before the release... My guess is that the so called 'secret' or 'bonus/surprise' plane actually did not make it in time to be released in 1.09  :p

Where did the "secret plane" appellation come from?  We're pretty much always working on planes but we just never announce them until they're completed.  Otherwise we'd just be dishing out disappointment anytime something could not be completed in time and had to be pushed back.

I'll just give a reference out for free... Bill "Razor" Ross razor@evcom.net  I was in a CFS1 squad with him and he made a real nice free ware version of the P-61b for CFS2.

I believe he has a manual for it...

You mentioned in one thread a few months ago that there might be some supprise planes. The new art Spits and the mid war 110 are supprise enough for me...
Great work HTC!

Considering that we'll most likely never see one? Nothing. :D

Ok .. I'll admit it.  I'm a fraud:)

I have no idea what the plane is, nor if there will be one.  I was trolling.....OR WAS I?????

i am still hoping for the he 111 with the belly mounted 88mm,,OR MAYBE A 120MM,,, think it had,,lol,,,or the b25,,,i guess it had a huge belly gun attachment too,,would be cool for tring on bases,,i seen picks of them with these guns,,,but if we cant get the guns,,atleast the he111 bomber,,it carred a little bigger bomb load than a ju88,,,and was a very popular plane in ww2,,,stuka would be cool too,,,but for some reason they havent stuck it on here,,,im still wondering about that one,,was it because they were early in the war?

I'm thinking maybe the spit14, but I could be wrong.

Well someone posted a screenshot of a spitfiremkIVX, in another thread . But other than that I'm clueless to what the surprise plane could be .

Do these words sound familiar? They should, you posted them in 1.09 news prior to release ;)

We're still trying to get more planes finished for this release and hopefully we'll have at least one more than the five that we've already announced.
