Ju88C6 status?
 
If i recall, there was mention of a C-6 as Ai when 413 came out, it had some type of shooting problem?? Just curious as to if it and the earlier C2 and A1 will be flyable? As well as for 412 there was a video with night fighters and radar, is work still progressing in these areas??

I was wondering my self

The Ju-88 C-6 would be great to have even if it would be the version without radar.

Yes, even the version without radar would be sweet!
And I think with the C6, we would not really need any more german planes in the game. We have a good selection of single engine fighters, a quite good selection of bombers (with the He-177 we will get a quite advanced one too), so only the Ju-88C6 is missing. Yes, Me-410 and Do-217 would be good to have as flyables, but I dont think anybody will do these. The C6 on the other hand, relatively easy to do, even its cockpit, because most can be taken from A4.

Actually we do need an earlier version of the Bf-109E for the upcomming Channel map BoB version. And atleast one flyable German seaplane like the Arado Ar 196 or the Heinkel He 115. Both would be very useful for both the Norway map, the Murmansk map and the upcomming Channel map.
Earlier versions of the He 111, the Ju 88 fitting for the BoB version of the Channel map, aswell as Do 17 and Ju 87 B-1 or B-2.

109E-3 isnt too important I think. Not so different than E-4, with very similar performance.
As for bombers, He-111H-2 is perfect for BoB. Even H-6 can be used to simulate H4. We have fitting Ju-88 variants too. A-1 and A-5 early are again perfect. They are not flyable, but the later A-5 was also used in BoB, which you can fly. Ju-87B-2 is flyable since ages. Maybe a Ju-87R-2 would be useful later, which is almost the same as the B-2.
The Do-17, I can agree. I forgot about this, it is direly missing from the game.
As for seaplanes, I wouldnt mind, especially the Ar-196. But I dont think there would be any use for them, because you cant damage ship components, like AA guns.
EDIT: I think there is one more plane that would be fun to fly, and would have uses: FW-200

The Bf-109E-3 is greatly needed as it would be used for pre BoB operations aswell. Yes, it is similar to the already present E-4 when it comes to speed an maneuvrabillity, but not in armament. The E-3 was armed with the 20 mm MGFF while the E-4 was armed with the MGFF/M. Might seem like a slight diffrence but latter packe a far more serious punch. But anyway, I do see the need for a Bf-109 version that could be used from the beginning of the war untill the arrival of the E-4.

So would the Ju 87 B-1. Forgot about the B-2 though. Off course we already have that.

I think there is a great use for the Ar-196. Just as the A6M2-N it saw many uses. They patrolled coast lines, performed reconnaisance and anti-submarine missions and saw plenty of action against enemy aircraft awell. It also saw use by the Finnish as a transport and supply plane for the Finnish long range patrols. So in that way it's just as useful as the upcomming transports and can be used for many a secret mission behind the Soviet lines. Over all the game needs more flyable seaplanes than just the A6M2-N. And aircraft like Ar-196 and He-115 are needed for that reason.

+1 for Bf 109E-3 and Do 17
Even Bf 109e-1 would be great!

If we really want to be silly, there's the Ju 290, a hundred or so produced, but a monster of a plane, 20mm cannon all over it.

Some instrument panel photos

First layout:

A few ww2 photos, not so good quality:

But this one is really good, although this is a Ju-88R cockpit (C, but BMW engines, otherwise the same)
