Remember that German Ace, Heinz Knoeke mentioned that they burned so easily, much easier than B17, with a bright flame!!!  :D

B24 Rules!

b24 adds no new capability or fills any gap in the current planeset. There are other aircraft imho that should be added before another 4 eng fluffer is added no matter what the country but especially not a allied 4 eng fluff.

b25 maybe

What is their in the main that requires a 4 eng buff now. They are nothing but "novelties" a b26 / ju88 or any jabo can do what the 4 eng buffs can and do it better.

Maybe if 1.09 delivers a new buff model it may make sense.

We need a b24 like a p47 needs more dts........

I will use the b24 in the MA.

I will not use:

Howabout He-177 ?

Post by: Citabria on January 10, 2002, 08:14:00 AM
HTC don't be lured by this new capability crap.

and trust me the b24 will be used MUCH MORE than the:

c202
ju88
tbm
ta152
fw190f8
ki67
il2
ki61


because it is a big truck with teeth. not a fancy gadget toy that sits in the hangar and gets rubbed with a diaper.

Well, that tears it then. If Citabria won't use them, might as well pull them off the menu.  ;)

There are only two types of planes.

Fw 190's, and targets.

B-29A and H8K2 are the only 4 engined buffs that make any real sense to me.

The Tupolev Tu-2S would see more action than the B-24 I bet.

b24 makes more sense than that jap boat and monster perk buff

I totaly agree fester..

Nothing gets my mouth watering like seeing a lancaster.. damn so tasty. In some cases i almost feal like appoligizing to a lancaster that i shoot down above 20k, but afterall its his fault for flying the flying corpse that high and wasting his time.

Maybe the lancaster will be worth a damn if/when they get the 3 AI pilots, and maybe a few different bomb load outs.

i would be content with a b24 or even better a b29.

Nope...don't want to see B-24 in AH right now...maybe after about...say...twenty planes...

KI-67 and TU-2S are easily the best choises for new buffs to AH right now and I'm glad Pyro thinks so too.

I want one of those Viking boats.  You know...single sail job with a bunch of slaves to slap around while they row you along when there's no wind.  You could even have big spears to chuck at the SQUID!! I'm certain they'd see more action than PT boats.

Well, when the time comes I'd rather see a Liberator than a Privateer. US plane set currently has 3 bombers and it needs forth? I think it's great that HTC is adding bombers (good bombers) to the nations in AH that don't have one yet.

As to my personal preference I'd like to see either Ju-188A-1 or He-177A-5. If and when AH planetset starts going back in time there will be some real nice bombers to add like Bristol Blenheim and Do-17Z.  :)

I was thinking more along the lines of the PB4Y-1, not the PB4Y-2.   :)

What we need is a fast low level bomber capable of closing a small airfield.  B25!!! with the solid nose.  8 50 cals in nose, rockets, and parafrags.

Before any aircraft are added, I'd like to see the effects of weather. This would add to the realism.

Cold weather: icing the carbs, freezing up the flaps, the skin of the plane becoming more fragile as outside temp drops...ect...ect.

Warm weather: increasing your take-off distance (with thought given to wind direction and speed), changing the best-rate-of-climb speed for an aircraft, pilot behavior after a pilot wound...ect...ect.

Rain, sleet, snow, hail

And what about weapon performance and visibility?

One radio channel could be used for weather briefings.

Just a thought.
