although I never fly jap planes I think it's high time we got a proper bomber for them and stop using the ju88 as a substitue.

also, another cargo plane would be nice, even though not really needed.

funkedup,

As I understand it, perks are for aircraft that would be imbalancing to the MA.

Sure, the Spit IX and N1K2 are/were really common, but most things can outrun them or deal with them in some other fashion. That would not be true in the case of the Spit XIV.

I think that the Spit XIV will end up a 30-40 point perk.  It can't run like the current exspensve perks so I don't see t hitting the 60-70 point range.

All I was refering to Steven, was that Pyro has stated that they like to be able to modify existing planes where possible. I would love to see many planes that couldn't compete in the MA, but with limited resources you have to make tough choices. Or are you just referring to, rather than spend some resources clipping the wings of the Spit MkV, you would rather see them using their resources to release an I-16 for example?

What I said about experience was in no way meant as a dig, I was just basing it on 'my experience' of HTC's 'method' for adding planes. I would love to see every plane in your list added, however, there are usually only a few new aircraft added with each build and some new models of others, was my only point. I was in no way stating that I 'KNOW' which airplanes should be added for the good of AH.

Soviet K4 would be nice and yes again 190F8 whole bomb load.  We have shown Documents and we have shown proff it was widely used so please Pyro  add it for next version.

I'd go for a 1941-43 Finnish-Russian front planeset. If I'd have to choose only 4 planes, I'd pick the ones in bold.

FAF
1. Brewster Model 239
2. Curtiss Hawk 75A
3. Fokker D.XXI
4. Fiat G.50
5. Morane Saulnier 406
6. Bristol Blenheim

VVS
7. I-153 Chaika
8. I-16 Rata
9. MiG-3
10. Yak-7
11. LaGG-3
12. Pe-2

If we'd expand the time line to 1944, the Ju-87 Stuka, Yak-9D and P-39 should be added into the list as well. I've heard that HTC has been planning of adding the TU-2, which is an enhanced version of the Pe-2.

Camo
CO, Lentolaivue 34
Brewster's in AH!

Sundog,

You may have totally misunderstood me.  Now that the membership of Aces High has grown, maybe the design team should too...add a new designer or two.  That's all I meant.  The coffers are probably full so put some of the cash back into the game.  All that other stuff you typed is way far away from what I was getting at and really has me confused.  Oh wait, w/out re-reading my original message I think I know what you are talking about and that was directed at someone totally different who went ape-poop on my friend about saying "many people want..."
