Title: PZL P.11 to Aces High
Post by: Viper17 on December 15, 2002, 02:04:25 PM
Ok this is my first request for anything. I had sat down today and was looking t my books when I found this plucky Polish fighter. From the storys I read it has to be sead that this was a amazing little gull winged monoplane. And fot this new Mission Theater it would make for a great secenario. Shure it was outclassed but it was a symbol (IMO) of this displaced nation during WW2.

That thing is funny to fly in Il-2 the guns are mounted halfway back on the fuselage and fire through the engine. The wing guns fire up at an angle or something as well. But its a blast to fly, Except for getting outrun like your standing still  by an Li-2(red goon)

Anytime Bike :)

In fact I'm still missing my babka (may she rest in peace) and I'll try to make a polish christmas diner next year for my kids (they are too yound to undertstand yet) so they won't forget from where we come.

Actually my daughter is already very fond of  : Obwarzanki  and paczki z konfiturami (like her father ;))

Btw I bet you don't know this polish monument :

(http://www.ateliersperrault.com/images/Maison_Roi_de_Pologne_-_Angers.jpg)

It's the king of Poland house in Angers.

It's the town were I used to live and were I'm going for christmas.
