I am talking about the ones used In WW2, there were allot of them and Many had a top speed of more than the zero's! and everyone flys the zero, A CR42 with a top speed of 312 MPH compared to the Zero's top speed of 303 MPH And the CR42 as well as all the other biwingers could out turn a Zero!

People keep saying they won't be used in Main Arena, People make an assumption because they are biplanes they were OutDated and Useless, but in reality they played a very important roll and were much more manuverable than any of the Mono planes In fact the I-16 (mono plane) flew before the I-153(biplane) most countries prefered the Biplane version because it could out manuver the mono plane version and was near the same speed.

They will definitly be worth flying in the Main Arena... Its the same arguement as with the P-40 "No body will fly it in the main arena its worthless" yet I'm sure we will be seeing allot of it :D

I was wonderin the same thing but I don't think so (I think SUPERFLY has modeled a few but not sure on that) Imagine though you get 4 ailerons and 4 wings could'nt get shot down by a lil ping takin out your wing tip :D  Besides If they can model B17 I think they can handle a biwinger LOL :)

Bring em all on, but slip em in one here & 2 there along with the rest of the planes we need.

I saw that somewhere, stats looked allot worse than most biplanes and must not have to good of a turn rate but thats just guessing since the wings are on top, though I think it carries 6 mg's compared to the gladaitors 4 right? I still wanna biplane :D But we will prolly even see this thing before HTC ever thinks of adding a biplane:(


BTW How do you attach Images like that, I clicked on the IMG button and it asks for a "Script promt, Enter text to be formatted"
I am trying to attach a pic in C:/MyDocuments/Mypictures how do I tell it to do that?

lol J2f would be cool cuz it's a sea plane but only problem is.... It has no armament! well some carried like 650 lbs of bombs or depth charges, but there are no subs and almost anybipane can carry 650 lbs... but it does look neat :)  it would be a good addition if we ever got subs or "spy" type rolls.
