I love the Skyraider. My dad had a nice 1:32 model of that plane when I was a child. I always found it had an aura of might and sturdiness.

Could be, the F-82 definitely was, until replaced by the F-94 Starfire, which had 4 kills in Korea.

The USMC used the F7f as a night fighter. There is an episode of Dogfights that details some of their fights.

(Secretly hoping for a Sea Fury too)

Really looking forward to the Skyraider, too. A great plane for groundpounding.

Did anybody of you consider the chances of the Corea-Sim and BoB being based on the same engine? Could mean you can merge installations on the one hand and on the other that there are 2 groups working on addons for SoW, which would mean a lot of new addons quickly. ;)

Your probably right...I haven't seen the movie for a few years.

Alan Ladd was a pretty good actor, I really like the film-noir movies he made with Veronica Lake.

"Jet Pilot" with John Wayne and Janet Leigh has some good footage in it... I think it was filmed around the time of the Korean war but it wasn't released for almost 8 years after filming had ended...nun-the-less their is some good scenes in it (Starfires and B36's).

Pretty certain that its already been confirmed that the Korea sim will be using the same engine as Battle of Britain. Thus the high level of detail in the Korea models. I HOPE...as you have said...that they can be merged and we can play the game on the same server just like now and switch between Battle of Britain and Korea just like that :)

I'd love to see an alien invasion addon. Flying saucers and 50s aircraft would be kinda cool. But everyone's already nagging for stuff, so I'll just be happy when Korea comes out.
