Video got me fired up - What to fly?

[MikkOwl]

I wonder if the online servers will enforce any kind of realistic make up of the planes available. Historically only something like 25% of the British planes were Spitfires, the rest being the far slower and less agile Hurricane, and I'd really hate to face only the elite best plane that was only available in small numbers when reality was that most planes were Hurricanes. It would not be Battle of Britain if it was populated by the latest Spitfire model only.

The ideal would be little 'battles' that go on for a few hours each, with new missions generated and some stuff like that, with realistically limited amounts of planes and planetypes, as well as pilots. All on a small scale as the online servers aren't quite WW2 scale.

Then, while the equipment remains historical, players are still free to devise their own tactics, with the after-the-fact experience and knowledge available to them. I.e. Bf 110's won't fly bomber escort next to the bombers, the Hurricanes won't fly VIC formations, the Luftwaffe won't abandon their air superiority strategy in favour of strategic bombing on London. I'd like to see how this alternate version works out.
