unless your talking about the IL-2, of course

There is a car that was built in the 50s that still exists, it's a car and you stick the wings and propellor and it's a plane.

I do like cars, yes. That DB9 was just..well...it was...just amazing. I have been a fan of Aston Martins though, for a long time. The DB7 I thought was amazing, but that DB9..nothing can match it...

i saw i picture somewhere of a russian tank with wings so it could glide around..................

A thank with wings ?!? I want to see that ! I wouldn't want to be inside when it lands, though. Think about it : tanks don't have good suspention... It should shake a little bit when that thing hit the ground.

 

[plan_D]

Tanks actually do have good suspension, they have to have good suspension. The Christie tank suspension was one of the best of the war (it's what the T-34 had).

Is that the tank Lanc?

Doing things like that you have to have good suspension.

That is a great pic Plan D!!

 

[cheddar cheese]

yeah cheers

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

yeah, that's the pic i was thinking of, see, and to think C.C. doubted me......

 

[cheddar cheese]

i never doubted you? and anyway, shouldnt you be working lanc...

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

no, our teacher's been away for ages now, so we get to do nothing all lesson.........

and would the BoB have been as bad if we had the mossie?

 

[cheddar cheese]

if we had the mossie in the BoB, it would have been over much, much quicker

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

because we would go in and bomb al their airfields.........

Would the Mossie have received that much attention? I was under the impression that during the BoB it was fighter production that was receiving priority.

 

[cheddar cheese]

but remember the mossie was also used as a fighter, with good effect 8)

 

[Lightning Guy]

Better than a Spitfire? Because that is what it would have to beat out.

 

[cheddar cheese]

not sure, but it was certainly at least as good as a spit and hurricane

 

[Lightning Guy]

The Mossie might have replaced the Hurricane. Of course it would need to show it's self as quick to produce because the RAF needed fighters NOW. But I don't think it would have replaced the Spit in production.

 

[cheddar cheese]

no it wouldnt have replaced the spit, but it could have been built alongside it,

 

[plan_D]

Yes, the Mosquito was quick, cheap and easy to produce. The MOD would have accepted it for those advantages, and its brilliant capabilities. It's armament would have been a lot more ideal for taking down the Luftwaffe bombers.
