i like the story where they found a bullet in the parachute of an Cr.42 (<-unarmoured) Pilot - lucky one

Nice read Frankyboy, thanks. Puts

So is anyone else looking forward to flying the BR-20M?

Looks like the Cr-42 & G-50 are in there, any other Italian birds?

Got to be a world first for a WW2 flight sim.
I wonder what other tasty surprises are install for us simmers..

I am hoping the Wellington and some of the rescue seaplanes will also be flyable.

What I want to see is correct static aircraft at the associated airfield. So if I land at a Bomber Command base to bum some gas I want to see Hamptons/Wellingtons parked there, maybe one or two hangar queens visible in the shop too. Um, after landing there to bum some gas I'd like the ability to refuel as well, instead of quitting the mission like we have to with the current sim

Glad to get some very high quality Italian aircraft to fly but, to be honest, I'd be happier to fly them in the Med than over the channel, where their contribute to the German effort and the results were rather... ahem... yeah... disputable. Where is anybody expected to get to, flying an Italian career in BoB? :rolleyes:

A!
