Another question, would the Beaufort also be at all useful in this game?

Also, would love to see this nose art on it.

Nice scenario aircraft & early war. It would not bring a lot to the game though.

IMHO for what it's worth.

I always think scenario is a perfectly acceptable reason to put something in, +1 to the Beaufort as well.

No to the Beau's.  Why?  Because I wanted to say no since everyone is saying yes. :D

In seriousness, a major +1 for the Beau's.  The only problem I'm going to have with it is that there will be no merchant ships, oil tankers, troop transports, freighters, submarines and various other juicy targets to hit with it. :cry

It would be used in scenarios, and in MA I see it being used the same way as the 110 or Mossie. 4 hizookas pack a punch.

how much use would it even see in AH?

Be a bit ironic if it got this big of a fanbase, only to become a hanger queen within a few months.

This is only a game to you.

To others, this is history at their fingertips.

Use that pathetic little brain of yours, or even scroll through the wealth of knowledge this
50 page thread has.
