i was just about to say that.

and by the middle of the "battle" (August) the mkII made its way into the front line squadrons.

the battle between the 109E and Spit mkI/II was pretty even. tho i'd have to go with the spit.

The Me109e for me, but to be honest what about the trusty old Me 110 with its cannons it packs a punch and should not be under estimated.
But I must be honest if I was forced to choose a plane I am most looking forward to flying it will be the Tigermoth.

Well who needs those beasts 109s and Spits when we have such fine Cr@pGalore airplanes as the Gloster Gladiator and Fiat CR42

IF I have to choose an uberplane I guess it would be the Hurricane

Ill choose both, 109 and the spit. Like always. Unlike most of the guys.

Yes, but this was later on. Would be intresting when this done, Oleg could include this improvement some time in the BOB campaign.

Otherwise flutter would remain during whole BOB campaign.

Ill ask Oleg.

Ive already done it...
"10. sorry if this has already been answered, but what is the time line for BoB:SoW going to span? ...
Are well looking at May '40 through September? or will it go on into winter '40/'41?"

Oleg's answer: June 40- October 40

"Is it known if the Spitfire and the Hurricane mkIs will be modeled with the 3-bladed De Havilland Constant Speed Propeller? both planes were fitted with them starting in June 1940... Or will the sim start at an earlier date and therefore have both the older 3-bladed 2-pitch DH Hamilton propeller and the later constant speed DH?"

Oleg's answer: Probably both variants. In code it is already.

"also are you planning on including the Spitfire mkII? squadrons started conversion to them in September '40."

Oleg's answer: No.

^that last answer is unfortunate. i dont really see why it wont be included, its not like there needs to be a completely reworked model, just a slightly changed FM. oh well.

I have to say that I have always enjoyed the BF109's "nasty-mean" looks...and I also love the history and beauty of the Spitfire...but like a lot of people here I'm really curious about trying my skills with the Hurricane. When you read "RL" story's about the air battles of "BoB" you read fantastic accounts of "every-day-joes" battling away with the "bread & butter" Hurricane...

In the end I will fly them ALL...

Since both are nearly as deadly as the next and almost equal in performance out of shear beauty I'm going for the spit.
