I'm still not sure whether he is talking about divebombers and ground attack aircraft like the Stuka and Il2, or medium and heavy bombers like the He111 and B17.

Yeah, we American's will be joining the fight late, as we did in WWII. The Europeans will be cheering the skies as we fly by in our P-51s.

He states "It's worthtaking some time to become familiar with the gunnery position in th bomber." And talks about flying in straight line. Hopefully it is a big bomber.

That could be applicable to either single or multi engined bombers, although talking about the gunnery position would suggest just one, which would probably make it a single engined aircraft.

Default i need MP gameplay footage.

Personally I need two things, a better joystick in the UK than the aviator, I dont have one but it sounds bad! Secondly I would like to see MP gameplay footage, the MP trailer shows nothing really!

The aviator certainly isn't great, but it's not bad for the money and a much better way to play this game than the controller. It's worth it.
Would rather have that TFlight the PS3 has, but this is still good enough.

I'll prob have to get the aviator but I'm pretty good on the controller to be honest. Is it best to attach the aviator to something to keep it stable? Also does it have a throttle lever on it?

I wouldn't recommend lapplay but then i rest mine on a desk - the left hand on the throttle lever keeps it steady- (or right-its ambidextrous!)- and so long as you really don't yank it around it too viciously it works just fine... anyone care to share lap experiences
