Any time you start going backwards because of too many guns I say it cant be a bad thing. :rock



Oh I can see the forum threads now if that gets modeled into the game.


OP- "Hey noob, why were you firing your guns when I was diving in on your 6 o'clock?"

'Noob'- "Airbrake."


Great photo btw.

Picked up Beaufighter Aces of World War 2 by Andy Thomas.  Turns out there were 80 pilots who were "aces' in Beaus.  Many of them Night fighter drivers, but a lot of MTO daylight guys too.  One RAAF 31 Squadron Ace in the PTO and a few in the CBI.

I just ordered 'Beaufighter over the Balkans' by Steven Stevenson. I've only read a few chapters (because I have a few other books i'm working on) but I can tell it's going to be a great read. This book is different in the fact that it's Stevensons account of what he did in the war with the Beau. He's not just pounding facts and statistics at you. Definately a fun read.
