If not dogs, the possibility of adding a girlfriend picture in the cockpit would be nice. There are some IL2 1946-mods that allows that I think, so in theory it should be possible.

Mmm, an MG would be nice - but the Mercedes W125 would be better I just love that 1937 race car that had more horsepower than F1 cars had until the 80:ies... Top speed of 320 km/h and no downforce at all. The classic press qoute by Rodney Walkerley from the 1937 Donnington GP says it all:

"Away beyond the woods we heard the approaching scream of a well-tuned E.R.A. and down the winding slope towards us came Raymond Mays. He changed down, braked, skirted round the Hairpin and was gone. "There's the winner," remarked one of my friends. "Knows this course backwards." Half a minute later came the deeper note of a 2.9-litre Maserati, and "B. Bira" (Prince Birabongse of Siam, Mays’ nearest rival and a new star in the racing firmament) shot past us, cornering with that precision which marked him as the master he was. "Or him," said another. We waited again. Then they came. Far away in the distance we heard an angry, deep-throated roaring – as someone once remarked, like hungry lions impatient for the arena. A few moments later, Manfred von Brauchitsch, red helmeted, brought a great, silver projectile snaking down the hill, and close behind, his teammate Rudolf Caracciola, then at the height of his great career. The two cars took the hairpin, von Brauchitsch almost sideways, and rocketed away out of sight with long plumes of rubber smoke trailing from their huge rear tyres, in a deafening crash of sound. The startled Pressmen gazed at each other, awe-struck. "Strewth," gasped one of them, "so that's what they're like!" That was what they were like."

But a dog would be OK too

Its just an idea, an adding to the much ideas we have, dont destroy it, if you cannot aport any new , dont blame in the work of the others, and dont use the excuse of its absurd becose, in the time you expended writing that comment you can really help the community and the game searching for new ideas, its not a bad response, only my opinion, if we all help, we all get benefits.

and yes, it woul be a good idea, every content to add in the game that has happened in the ww2 its a good idea. and more, if we count that are a few sims that the player can customize all of his things.

I get what you are saying but in my oppinion 'help' is usually assistance in the solution to a problem, I am struggling to see where a dog based problem exists in the game.....is this a flight sim or some strange kind of RPG style game to act out weird fantasies......I'm pretty sure people will eventually be asking for magic elves etc.....

Can't model dogs until they sort the trees out. Think about it.

@bongodriver

nice elf!!

One problem I can see is that in that era dogs were given names like Sambo and Nigger (Douglas Bader's dog was called Nigger apparently). Having a pilot wander across an airfield shouting 'Here Sambo' might not go down too well in some quarters!

That was Guy Gibson's dog.....a black Lab...
