OUTSTANDING!

I look forward to new content as much as the next person, however perhaps there is more wisdom in releasing aircraft chronologically instead. As with the initial fighter releases, players will again have to fight the war in reverse.

Jason - just my $.02

With the exception of the SPAD VII, the scout stable is perfectly adequate for a start to finish career in any service. There are plenty more that could be done, but with the exception of a mid/late 1917 French scout there are no glarinfg omissions. The Snipe was a very late war type that saw limited service. While welcome, it really isn't all that important form a campaign PoV.

If I can offer my $.02 for two seaters:
British: BE2c, RE8, Brisfit.
German: Albatros C.III, DFW, Hannover CL II
French: Farman F.40, Dorand AR, Breguet 14

Those would offer at least one representitive type from 1916 through the end of the war.

As you probably know there were more 2 seaters types than there were scouts, so there is plenty of room for expansion.
Some to choose from ...

Albatros C.I, C.III, C.V, C.VII, C.X, C.XII
Rumpler C.I, C.III
LVG C.I, C.II, C.V
Roland CL.II
AIG types

Farman F.40,
Voisin L.III,
Caudron G.4, 6
Dorand AR 1 and 2,
Salmson 2a2
SPAD XI, XVI

BE2c, 2e
FE2b, d
RE8
DH4, 9
F2b,
AWFK 8

You sure you want to do that in public? I mean, so people even know it's you doing it?!

Have to argue with you, the DH4 was used from 1916 and extensively right through till the end, and so would make the better choice for all round flexibility in campaigns.

The Biff was used as a long range fighter/bomber so is not in the same category as Be2c-e, DH4, DH9, RE8, etc, but agree would therefore be a more exciting flyable...

Forgive me if this has already been answered, but are there any plans for more AI-only craft? I know they aren't money-makers, but should take less time since no cockpit it necessary. I only miss the 2-seaters as targets...

What I see in Pat Wilson's list, trimmed down to reasonable size, is an emphasis on the more humble aircraft. Going for the DH4 or Brisfit before a two-seater like the Be2 or RE8 is going to cause hundreds of threads about two-seaters that cannot be caught in the CP career mode.

Per the DH4,I have always found the top speed specs to not really match anecdotal evidence. I have never heard accounts of German flyers being unable to catch them nor of British pilots simply pushing the throttle and escaping. When those measurements were taken I am curious as to whether the plane was a factory fresh aircraft with no observer, machine guns, and a half tank of fuel.

Wonder what theaerodrome would say ...
