Do we need more buffs for MA gameplay? IMHO no. The B-17 and the B-26 fill the heavy/medium bomber role excellent. A Lanc could maybe sport a bigger bombload but lacks defensive fire power (no belly turret, .303 MG's for defense), a Ju 88 could carry torpedoes to attack shipping in later versions, although torpedo attacks were until now usually replaced by Jabo attacks in a MA environment, but has rather anemic defensive armament.
Regarding Scenarios and a possible RPS any additional plane is certainly welcome, and everyone awaits new planes eagerly, but the MA can only be filled with more underdogs or some late war uberplanes - exceptions like P-47 taken.

Az - I believe I heard the Lancaster will be one of the variants that used .50s for defence(but it is still extremely lacking defence wise).

I know, the fighter pilots are a squiggly bunch that can't designate compass headings, don't know how to hold course or to navigate and all, but that's going too far rip: fighter-bomber != bomber

DROOOOOOOL!
If HTC will introduce Vampires I will send them more pizzas than they can possibly imagine. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
My local airfield has a Vampire and Venom that you can take flights in. Costs far too much though (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)
