In the next version, we will also fix several bugs found in version 1.024, such as ...

...strong network stutters (periodic screen freezes for a split second) caused by the destruction of trains and barges not moving on their route.

...the loss of sound in multiplayer, but, unfortunately we do not know yet the exact method of replication required for solving this issue.

We also continue our work on the new technologies required to create the new Channel map and seaplanes (Brandenburg W12 and Felixstowe F.2A). We are also working on other new unannounced items.

Considering there were about twice as many Allied plane types built, that would be about right. The problem is there still are not enough two seaters (especially 1916-1917 era) of any nationality.

Very good point Nimits and one that is frustrating me. I'd love to see a few more early types.

I'm more thinking on 3/1/2 [=Bri/Fra/Germ] so we need a 2-seater from France, hope it will be a early war, now the EIII will be hunted by 4 types of 2seaters. attack

I actually think that once the DH-4 is released, we're pretty good in the two seater department. I'd put two more in, for the early war scenarios. We really don't have any observation types for the DH-2/Fokker Eindecker period.
French types of the time incuded Voisons and Farmans. Don't know if anyone would want to be up in one of those. Two good choices, only in my opinion of course, would be the BE-2 and the Aviatik.

Yes, we could do with two/three early war two-seaters.
It might also be good to add the Rumpler for the later war (so the two-seaters are more evenly matched between Entente and Central).

It's not just Entente and Central thought is it? Realy it's Britain, France and Central as the 3 major factions. France only has the Breguet so they are the hard done to faction. France needs the Salmson A2, the standard French spotter and recon plane for 1918.

The name of the game in Russia is "War in the Heavens - 1917," so the DH4 fits that bill very nicely. yep
