which planes have combat and landing flaps?

some pretty good advice tho and is pretty dead on from the times i have flown sim. hardest part is target aquision. if you can see them or keep your eye on them you have fighting chance. if not you are going be flying silk rather than a plane.

All have them in sim on PS3 mate: raised, combat and should the landing gear be down landing flaps. Save for fixed undercarriage (eg stuka) which dont have combat flaps.
