Moggy EAW Old Timer Hotshot Registered: 08/27/00 Posts: 5750 Loc: A slit trench at RAF Gravesend	Originally Posted By: Rotton50 Yeah but as I wrote yesterday, what's the point? 1 - Can't play it in campaign mode. Who want's to make 30 or 40 parachute drops? I mean, real pilots probably made a couple of drops under fire during the whole war. 2 - EAW can't score the missions. 3 - More than likely you won't even get home alive from the first mission. Can't dogfight in a C-47. Well, you CAN but you're gonna loose. Sorry to sound so negative but I think we need to "keep it real" as the kids say. I actually found it quite fun to fly a Ju52 to a Dutch airfield, drop the paratroopers, and then get back in one peice. But that may say quite a lot about me _________________________ RAF Chattenden The Gen Home of the EAW Code Group

And yes there is a Skua dive bomber but only LR, but I guess it's easy to convert, but will need a bit of work as it's really a PAW Kate 3dz. I just love the BIG ammo. http://www.quarry.nildram.co.uk/tankbusters.htm _________________________ Ah that's much better!

Of course I would also like a Baltimore and/or Maryland but I expect that will have to wait for the Hampden?

We are not stuck with one set for all the years, we can have different folders for each year. _________________________ Ah that's much better!

Knegel Hotshot Registered: 08/14/01 Posts: 8403	We dont need to take anything out! We can have up to 10 Plane sets. _________________________ 1st engined flight by Richard Pearse, Waitohi, New Zealand, March 31, 1902. Karl Jatho, 1st flight, 18.August 1903, Hannover-Vahrenheide, real controlled flights. The Wrights, 1st flight, 17. December 1903. They wasnt the 1st, but still claim this!
