Ur nasty mouth will be filtered, and it was all in fun, so lighten up, have fun, and dont come off as an @sshole with an attitude, and we'll enjoy all ur witty comebacks...

Was I coming off as an ****ole? hmmm usually when I try to make comebacks I do in fact come off as an *******, anywho yeah that was not my intentions
 
no worries adler i can assure you you're all crazy fools for not loving the lancaster..........

and since when did kamakaze aircraft have crew members :lol:
 
OOO lordy what to pick! I have been away for a very long time and am now trying to get myself all back togehter.

As for the aircft, why not a seaplane, patrolling off the Maine coast protecting convoys or trainig pilots.

I have so much to pick from on this list, maybe a staff pilot ;)
 
As per my previous post on this topic, the reason I would chose a dive bomber is because I could have someone watch my back and see what I might miss while I go blow stuff up, and shoot anything enemy related in my way. Maybe this fits the fighterbomber mentality more, but I have always liked the dive bombers.
 
i was watching a documentary on the BoB yesterday and whilst watching some of the footage i thought damn it'd be good to be an Anti-Aircraft gunner.....
 
after playing IL-2, anyone would want to be, they are too accurate there the IL-2s become useless
 
Hi all.

Me, personally, well...

Commanding a Jagdgeschwader of Bf-109 "Emils" against Britsh Spitfires during the Battle of Britain, Jun.-Oct. 1940.

There you go.

I too picked Bf-109s but I would have taken a G-6 or K-4 under Erich Hartmanns group.
