Hi John,

Knees as well - due to go in for an exploratory op last Friday with a view to a knee replacement but guess what - NHS of course so cancelled. Now due March. At least my ankles are OK (so far). It's no fun getting old is it? And yes, the Malta Spits were good but we need somebody to put them in the scenario/campaign I guess (don't have that on my computer at the moment but as I recall no blue/gray Spits included - could be wrong of course). I see Ray is looking at DAW and no doubt IM will get involved. Well we are both here for the reasearch if nothing else.

Look after yourself and the kids. I know we at times (however unintentially demanding) individuals on the Forum can be a pain, but family comes first as you and I appreciate.

Pete

Hi Mike,

Good work as usual!

A Hurri IIb (12 MG´s) could be interesting as well, for this a Hurri Ia 3dz would do the job, maybe we have a desert Hurri 1a.


Greetings,

Knegel

I think Mike has the relevant Squadrons/Codes/Serials for IId and possibly IIb if he has the time and we have the right models/FM. 12 Mg could make a fair old mess of soft skinned vehicles and men, and the IId was quite effective against armour, but they did take heavy losses apparently - slow and low.

If no one else does it I'll fix the hardpoints on the Hurricane while setting up the new DAW plane set.

Very good.

Just fix it, reslot the skins if needed and send them over, i will create the fitting FM folders and then offer the DAW Planes folder update.

Of course we also should have the fitting DAW Hangerscreens.
