[cheddar cheese]

yup hes hardly gonna say, 'god save our bush' though is he

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

it cirtainly would make a very amusing national anthem....................

 

[cheddar cheese]

sure would

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

here's a paradox, they said the B-17 was good, when it clearly wasn't.............

 

[cheddar cheese]

it was good!

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

not as good as the lancaster..................

 

[cheddar cheese]

was better 8)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

nothing was better then the lancaster..............

 

[cheddar cheese]

except the b-17, b-29, p.108 (would have been better), wellington....... etc etc 8)

 

[Lightning Guy]

I don't think the Wellington can be considered superior to the Lanc in any respect. I love the Wimpy but it's going to lose out in speed, range, payload, defensive armament, and the fact that the Lanc completely replaced it.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

i don't see how the P.108 was better aswell...............

 

[cheddar cheese]

the bit about the wimpy was a joke and i didnt say the P.108 was better, i said it WOULD have been better, read carefully!

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

go on then, how WOULD it be better?

 

[cheddar cheese]

well, once the problem of rotting was out the way (very common with italian structures) it would have been a highly versatile plane had it been developed 8)

 

[Lightning Guy]

Translation: If the Germans had the P.108 it might have turned into a halfway decent aircraft, with the Italians it was junk.

 

[plan_D]

Exactly...

 

[cheddar cheese]

would have been a great aircraft

 

[cheddar cheese]

would have been a great aircraft

 

[plan_D]

Yes, it would have been if the Germans got it.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

but there's allot of what ifs, we'll never know what would have happend............
