well come on, why do people seem to think it's comming in the next version?
i haven't seen anything mentioned about it.
don't get me wrong, i'm a runstang dweeb, and i would love to get it (ya perked of course)
but then again i don't use perk points right now so i have enough for a few hops ;)

Cuz a CM leaked a screenshot, emails went crazy, and there is no reason to care anyway. It will be just under the "Ultimate Perk" in cost.
-
We asked for it, and we got it,...
Saving those perkies for so long WILL pay off! :D
:cool:
-
Where's the screenshot??
Westy
(trying to hide smirk)

Did it even fight in WW2? It was evaluated against the Japenese at the very end of the war but IMO saw very little if any combat.
Intresing Yak-9 versus P-51H.
-
YA! someone cough up the screen shot!
gimme gimme gimme :)
hehe a 480 MPH, lighter pony.... (http://www.mpz.co.uk/cwm/cwm/cwm3d/3dbiggrin3.gif)

"One of the first aircraft that Welch tested was the P-51 Mustang. The aircraft above is a brand new, factory fresh P-51H. This was the fastest of the Mustang line, being capable of 487 mph at 25,000 feet."

If true:
1) No real issue it'l get flown like a popsicle plane, and better cost at lest as much or more than the Me262.
2) Pathetic and starts a terrible trend in AH.
So.
I ask for F86 and Mig15. And F22 as well.

You guys have been had by a doctored screenshot. ;)
-
Maybe Animal and SOB were goofing on everyone.
Im not sure really.
They usually are great sources and upstanding community guys when it comes to getting folks whine-wound-up.
:D

P-51d is already invincible
a p-51H would be a stupid addition. its not even a ww2 plane.
Spitfire XIV would be a much better use for scenarios HA TOD etc.
p-51H is a late war gadget aircraft with little use other than being a super uber MA dweeb wagon
-
There was no email, but I bet Thunder could provide you with anything you want. :)
-
I heard we were gittin the tiger tank.
But; since fester and the LW are so annoyed with the concept; maybe we will get an H model pony to hunt jets with.
-
This isn't HiTech's but if it were it might look something like this maybe hehe!

hangtime Ive flown p51s almost exclusively this tour
-
Fester, what is your opinion of the P51 v the Tempest?
ra
-
heheheh.. Fester's gettin cranky. I suspect his lucks about to run out...
-
lol this is one for goof archives for sure. :D
-
I would half to compleatly agree with GRUNHERZ, on the P51H issue,bad move if it happens.
-
P-51d is superior to the tempest above 5,000 feet.
p-51 has superior vertical performance especially in the dive.
flown both a whole bunch and both are very good but p-51d is better than tempest

I love killin' runstangs, but chasin' em down in a Me 262 is gonna be sooooooooooooooooo much more fun! :D
OH MY!™

The rumor that could not be killed! It has taken on a life of it's own and is now stalking helpless victims ready to squeel! :eek:
SOB
:D
PS to Fester...LOL!
-
It's taken on a life of its own, ain't it?
-
I agree with that, Fester.
We should need other good WWII Planes than P-51H.
-
:(
I wish HTC would stick to WW2.
-
it's aliiiiiiiiiiiive sobby kill it kill it!!!!
:D
-
I'd go for Spit XIV unperked and P47M perked.

Or, to translate:

Why not BAN people who re-open 8 year old threads?

holy bump batman :huh

where's the delete button?

P51H model is relevant.
Why post if you are concerned about bumping? In my mind you are just as bad.

A. Didn't see service in WW II
B. ver. 1.08 is loooong released
C. Obviously the rumor was false
So, exactly why did you need to post in this old thread?

It did see service in WWII. It was very limited, but I know for a fact that it did. I was fortunate to come across some top secret doucuments a few months ago that stated this. If you want me to PM you these documents I will.
-
YAWN
-
LOL "1.08" a neon sign saying "SKUZZY PLEASE LOCK THIS" would be more subtle. :lol

Your facts are wrong. It reached units for service testing, but never entered combat- never fired a shot in anger, was never shot at, never got within 500 miles of the enemy. Thus its not a combat aircraft.

As far as the P51H thread, I was looking at footage of it on Youtube and wikipedia. I searched for it on the forums and found a thread about it. I didn't look at the date, I just posted out of excitement. Sorry, that I'm so passionate about this game and community. Sorry that I try to make this game competitve again. Sorry that the date is something that I didn't look at and it's so small. You have really managed to tear down my ILAC sign and I'm going to have a hard time building it back up.

Spin baby spin. :aok

That is possible, but how did you miss the message below before you bumped it?

Doesn't seem like a very 'excited' reply. Seems more like a "I'm doing something dumb here" reply.

I posted on my iTouch. If you had ever used an itouch or iphone, then you would know that this board isn't very mobile internet friendly.

See Rule #15. iTouch's cannot be used as an excuse to bump a 7 year old thread.

I think the Germans refered to them as runstangs or "laufenStang" in WW II.

Runstang, DoraDweeb, Dweebfire... I can't remember any catchy name for the old P-38L other than "UFO." :lol

That is the niki...get it right man.

I remember Dorka-9 from back in AW when the 190D was WAY over-modeled
-
That is the niki...get it right man.
I'm thining of the P-38L from WB 1.x. Rolled better than the 190, turned with the SpitV, climbed with the SpitIX, and was fast enough to run away. :lol
