I cant wait to see all te types mentioned above.Why oh Why do we keep hearing p51 p47 Its getting very very annoying now.
I cant wait to see the lovely looking P51 and the power packing P47.I love the look and the history of these fine a/c,when i was 15 yrs old(im now 40) i made a "Royal Kit"of a p51 remote control,i do honestly love the look of the A/C.
I just mentioned history,Please gents lets let it take its course.
Not everything HAS to have an American involvement.
Take that how you wish,i dont mean to be rude in anyway.
Im well aware of the situation Britain was in in 1940/41 and im also well aware of the money and the hardware that followed after 42 but for gods sake its a bloody game.
I for 1 would love nothing more than a whole series made of the offensive into France just after the BoB,with all the new tactics and the new a/c,Spits,190s,etc.
That was a time in history when it was pivotal to go on the attack.
I cant wait for this game to develope into what we all want it to be,and it will be(at the moment 70%of the online(or offline)flyers cant even get the bloody thing working!!!!
Hope i dont get shot to peices for this(but im expecting,just like so many others in this forum i will)
I cant wait for the historically accureat Whirlwind, and the Lancaster and the Typhhon etc etc i want i want i want

Not even going to mention the way these people fly either.
As no matter what flight sim, the vast majority don´t give a hoot about missions or objectives, but just want to gangbang. Fine for those that like that. But there are also plenty that have a differant view on that, even though they seldom voice their views here. The only common ground is the flight sim, thats it. But certainly not wishing to spend time with such people with which there is just one single common point.

As to the original topic yes I would be all for more early war scenarios, but I fear as usual the kids who just care about their late war hot rods will get their wishes heard again, and the others will most likely have to find something else.
My time is too precious to spend it with inflated egos, and gangbanging hot rod freaks.
From the sound of things you have never actually been in comms, theres no screaming kids and commander in chief wannabes. Do I have to be a kid to like fast, beautiful and deadly aircraft? Oh wait, since you like slow and disadvanted aircraft you must be a real "man"! Give me a break... And inflated egos are quickly deflated by a few good rounds in the right place. Your time is so precious you would rather spend it playing with yourself? I mean thats what offline flying is right? Have fun with that, isnt that what all the "kids" are doing too?

Online is definitely fun. The coms part is what really makes it. If you have a laid back atmosphere you can easily find yourself getting in trouble at work because of lack of sleep There are going to be those that care about stats or whine when they get shot down.

But when you go at with the fun it's supposed to be, it doesn't get much better than flying in a team. IL2 is infamous for it's crap planes. There's nothing like getting 8-10 of your squad together with everyone jumping in a TB3, expecting full well to get destroyed

But I would not be playing any flight sims if I wasn't talking to my mates. It add soo much more to flying. And then when you hop it up into a SEOW or ADW type situation, or a fully immersed depiction of war with a bunch of your squad, it's almost exhausting and exhilarating at the same time. But soo worth it.

I can not stand SP and that's no offense to anyone that likes it. But when I know I'm flying or participating against a robot, I just can't seem to feel really there. And that's the point to me. Humans make the sims as dynamic as it can be. And after all the MP stability issues / game issues are sorted, expect to see many ongoing online campaigns from us.

To each their own, but if you haven't given coms or MP a chance, hop in our coms and prepare to have fun

And bring plenty of this: (Thanks to Kristorf!)

there are a lot of possible "crap planes" and there will be lot of possibilites for mudmoving i will just miss the possible shipattacks that would be possible with a 41 or (for the Spitfire pilots ) 42 MTO scenario. Not to speak about carrier operations with the FAA
and as a Martlet (as a Grumman product ) might be questionable, i can see Fulmars, SeaHurricanes and Swordfishes for that !!
perhaps in 5 years from now on....
Oh no need to look at Grumman products, there are other aircraft that where in fair use that are almost always forgoten, like this one:

Usage:
Defense of Malta

The No. 431 General Reconnaissance Flight received the first Marylands in October 1940.2,3
Taranto

The Marylands provided the reconnaissance of Taranto Harbor before the Swordfish attacked the Italian Navy.

Is also mentioned in trainings films like this one:

Keep on guessing you are not even close.
Your furball gangbang plane don´t interest me the slightest bit at all so keep on wanking about your beautiful and deadly what ever......

I Love that battle of france plane set. Also will love Battle of Moskow.
I like early war planes better. But i also like to fly late war 190 A9s for example.
You are worried about red planes being worse but a powerfull plane is not everything. I used to have a lot of fun in a furball server downing La7s with a Mc200, it is very easy if you force them to low speed turn fights. And they go very confident for having the better plane.
Flying weaker planes doesnt make you "more man" but force you to win with tactics and teamplay
