The devs really need to give us some kind of concise answer as to what unlocks the planes. BTW, and I saw this several times, playing through on arcade the first time just to unlock planes, especially after talking shit on this board for a month about how everybody is going straight to sim and are super awesome BoP players, well, that's hypocritical and cheap. Anyway, they need to give us a solid answer pretty soon before everybody just gets frustrated and leaves.

I am proud of myself on this front. I immediately went straight into sim mode and didn't look back. The first mission where you fly the IL-2 I dropped down to realistic because I couldn't find those stupid tanks in the streets for the life of me. Then I immediately went back and beat it on sim and beat all the rest on sim without dropping down. I did play a bit of arcade capture the airfield with some squadron buddies just for kicks. Other than that though, Arcade has not touched my box.

You can check my xbl username for my sweet achievements: pedrothegoat because I know everyone is dying to know. /sarcasm

Now if people would actually not be scared if sim mode online, then I would be a happy Goat.
