I was thinking the other day and I remembered pictures of the Gyroscope thing - are there still plans to include this aircraft in the game? I read a Commando comic once which featured one of these gyroscopes shooting down a 109 over the S.E. coast with a single .303 gun!!

You mean "Autogiro". Neither the C.30 nor the C.40 had armament. After BoB there was engagement where a C.30 was jumped by a 190 and the C.30 successfully evaded it. The C.30 had such a limited payload that even a light forward-firing machine gun would have been out of the question. The autogiro's nose-up flight attitude would have made engaging targets nearly impossible anyway. That said, I really do hope the C.30 has made it in.
