I really don't think it is worth the time/effort to re-hash it all again....certainly not for me.

But, you other folks want to speculate endlessly, go for it. I would suggest, though, that someone start a thread called "GRUMMAN". As it is, this "Malta or Mediterrranean" thread has been definitively "Hijacked".

I was not intending to start another thread about this issue...if fact, the one observation I made, was that it would be nice to hear from someone who had actual legal knowledge. I believe that this has been a standing request from the forum at large...I was just bumping the sentiment.

BUT IF you read the rest of my post, you will see that I put forth the idea of building an add-on around Pacific theater campaigns (or Japanese campaigns in general) the focus on the 18th Fighter group, the 21st Fighter wing and the 318th fighter group (for example), which all flew P-38, P-39, P-40 and P-51's. The British and Australians also saw a great deal of action around Singapore, Malaysia, & New Guinea. These country's largely flew Spitfires and Hurricanes (not to mention the Dakota and Mosquito squadrons). Lets also remember the Flying Tigers!! That would make a tidy little add-on (do I hear the idea of releasing an add-on to coincide with the forthcoming movie?). Of coarse I'm joking...but I think my idea is clear.

For the people who can not live without the navy air powers represented, we could always enjoy a Pappy Boyington (Black Sheep) add-on. I for one love the "bent wing bird"!!!
