Very good. Zero pilots are spoiled for choice lol. Just checked the Japanise Konami video again and it seems this is the full list of Japanise planes, unlike the US list.

Well, I am not that "back" as I used to.
I have much less time, since I need to be on our forums as well, not counting the development
Google told me there is still lot's of activities here, so I decided to answer a couple of questions. Can't promise I will appear here often.

The worlds best game dev had returned.
And of course there are alot of things happening you gave us a great game last time and with what your telling us it looks like, in terms of quality of the game this new game will be a market leader.

I have the site listed as a favourite so noticed the updated list earlier.

A great looking list, so classics!! Would of preffered a Typhoon to a Tempest but i really dont mind the Tempest at all

And the Lanc...

I'm so glad its the one it is. I didnt want a grand slam special or a gibson lanc. I just wanted a bog standard normal lanc and thats what they've given us. Excellent!!! Notice its in 49 squadron markings to (EA) which is probably a good shout, they were part of 5 group and did their fair share of work, from arms factories to peenemunde...they were their.

And the cream of the crop.... HURRICANES!!! 2 of em!!! But both look the same in the pics though. Still i have faith in the guys at Gaijen to deliver

One Hurricane to shoot down planes and one Hurricane to drop a couple of bombs or fly further. Will do me.

Now the negative...

6 BLOODY SPITFIRES!!!

That aside..

I cannot wait for some free flying on this now!!!

Lancaster Spitfire and Hurricane in formation - Beautiful!!

Cannot wait to fly the Mossie either!! What a beauty. No doubt Pope will be making use of it

This game has jumped to the top of my must have list.

i never bothered to get the b17...are you able to switch gunner placements...like go from front gunner to ball turret (top and bottom ) to side gunner to rear??

On another note -

Lancaster Bomber EA-D of 49 Squadron Bomber Command was one of two 49 squadron Lancasters lost over Berlin during a raid on the night of 26/27 November 1943. Only the Bomb aimer "J G Burrows" survived. He was taken prisoner.

It would be good to see the serial number of this in game Lancaster.

Below is a pic of "D for Dog" after another previous trip to Berlin. Taken from a 49 squadron site -



Here's the site about this particular airplane -

This is the ONLY game on my must have list. There are several games coming out that I'm going to rent and try out, but Birds of Steel is the only one that I plan on buying straight away.

Still patiently waiting for Birds of Steel....
