- Some screens updated to better image quality.

- Some minor bugs corrected.
MS 406 from LLv 28 attacking DB-3's near Helsinki.
Fokker DXXI from LLv 24 shot down by a I-16 fighter.
LLv26 Gladiator shooting down a SB-2.
The railwaystation at Viipuri getting bombed.
I-153 attacking a Finnish camp.
A Big thanks goes to the guys in the EAW Code group that made the 1.28e FAW update possible, especially to:
Knegel and MrJelly.
And the update had never been possible without the handy editors by MrJelly!
I made the FAW update myself - except for the FM/DM update which Knegel did - but some other peoples work was included, please check the readme file for details.
Thanks to all that have contributed!
FAW is now available for download on the FAW page on my site.
