I'll be there with a Ju87, at least I can see ground targets.
Only a question: there were more Hurries than Spits, do you think to limit Spit number too? Only for an historical reason, I mean...

A whole generation of pilots learned to treasure the Spitfire for its delightful response to aerobatic manoeuvres and its handiness as a dogfighter. Iit is odd that they had continued to esteem these qualities over those of other fighters in spite of the fact that they were of only secondary importance tactically.
Thus it is doubly ironic that the Spitfire’s reputation would habitually be established by reference to archaic, non-tactical criteria.
