imagine going on a bombing mission, you have pilot, co pilot, and several gunners all from their correct perspective going up against wave after wave of German fighters while trying to accomplish your different bombing runs!!! Holy shit.

I think I just got a chubby.

What would the co-pilot do? controll the throttles?

He could take control of the plane if the pilot gets killed.

Ok.. so how often would that happen? so you would probably be stuck there navigating untill someone gets a lucky shot... Maby if he was the co-pilot AND the bomb aimer.

That could work. But in WW2 many people died in B-17s and most of the people that died were pilots since the Me-109s would come head on.

I accept that but unless there is a load of Ps3/xbox playing veterans out there i dont think this will happen nearly as much as it would have done! I think that you would be better off having a fighter escort than a full crew B-17. Anyway thats my two pence.

That is a good idea. You could have a few prople in the B-17 and some other people in fighter for escort.

Its not how they did it in 'them days' that counts its appealing to a wide audience. Now, would you like to be playing a game wher you have been selected as the co-pilot and might end up with nothing to do for a significant part of the game? iIt might be ok to a 'Sim nut' but the bigger market is the average gamer who want action. Thats how you sell your games - appealing to the biggest market.
