     You can simulate a TBD pretty easily now, take up a TBM and leave it at half throttle  :lol

TBM is pretty helpless as it is there really is no need to introduce the TBD.  Seriously those A6m2s have no problem eating up TBMs. However, an update of the TBM would be nice.  :devil

I will never forget the nomenclature for the Helldiver.

Years ago, when I was working at a carpet store to help get through college and old man came in. He wanted carpet, I guessed that his age put him in the Greatest Generation. We started talking. Turns out he flew Helldivers for the US Navy. Credited with dropping a 1k bomb on a Japanese CV late in the war. Anyway, he told me that they called the SB2C Helldiver the Son of a squeak, 2nd Class....I'll never forget it.

He's gone now.
