Ha yup i can see it now...


You see this wouldnt of happened if this was a Finnish Buffalo, and the enemies were Russian Biplanes. I do enjoy listening to him preach about the Buffalo, its entertaining. He's a good character. Needs to get back on here now his pride and joy has been mentioned :P

Where did you guys see the list of planes? Or have you just gone from what the video clip showed?

Im hoping theirs a free flight option that can be used online.... with take offs and landings etc.

And the brakes on the joystick work.......


I cant wait for this game, i do like the dauntless dive bomber, it just looks quite beasty.

Please have some new RAF kites in their though.... A lanc.... or a mosquito....

PLEASE!!!

Sweet info Bobby, now I just hope to see the P-38.:(

bobbysocks 06-13-2011 04:24 PM

i just went off of the list i saw on the one video where that jabroonie was drowning himself in the hellcat. the rest pulled off of screen shots, trailers and other vids. there has to be more allied ac and way more raf especially with malta conflict in the mix. i guess it will be like the 12 days of christmas where we find them out slowing day by day. i am happy with the p39 even tho it might fly like a brick and am hoping for a p40.

FOZ_1983 06-13-2011 04:40 PM

Some of the planes from BoP will be able to go into BoS, just with a few tweaks here and their, thus making up the numbers.

If we have Malta in their then we would surely be seeing.... THE HURRICANE BABY!! WHHHOOOOOOOO!! also the Spit and the Blenheim...

Im sure Anton pops in here now and again and if not he knows people like the P38 and the P40. Im convinced that at least one of the 2 will be in their.

The possibilities for aircraft to be used are endless. Im hopeful of seeing a Hurricane in Tropical camo with a tropical air filter on it and some beasty 20MM cannons.

Your prob right though Bobby, it'll be like BoP and every so often an extra aircraft will be added to the site with details about it.

Im extremely excited about this game!! Its confirmed arrival has made it jump straight to number 1 on my most wanted list.

I am going to go out on a limb and "assume" that BoS and World of Planes will have the same inventory of ac. so that being said i saw 4 more planes.
