Sounds good, but Burma map is quite large so make sure you empty your bladders and fill your glasses before setting off :lol:

Need an undamaged engine to get back over those mountains as well.

Dear All,
Just to prove that I do visit the FI forum occaisionally I will reply to this topic. Great....should be good....but it DOES let Genosse off the hook.........I suppose he'll be forgetting his orders for more Coops now. I do like this theatre and the aircraft types.....I can be John Wayne or Errol Flynn again.
Best regards,
Pike.

My dear Pike!

Indeed I am very impressed about your online appearance. Honestly you´ve joined this BB on Friday August 22, 2003 and you´ve already contributed to this BB 18 (!!!) postings. I say this quite seriously but I´m really proud to know you and therefore I can live with one of your very English ... erm ... southern Gentlemen manners: the less the better. :lol: ;)

It´s good to see you here again, Scott! ^:)

Is everyone happy with the plane set? I might replace the Ki-43 Kai with the Ki-61 as it has more fire power. Any suggestions will be considered.

Vin Spit VIII is a potent killer of late war Japanese planes so a bit too good for the mid war Orientals IMO.

If you want one what about a Mrk Vb or 2 cannon Vc ? They will still wipe the floor with the Ki43 II which are truly shan, having a tendency to flip without warning, dont think the FM was ever sorted.The earlier ones are much superior if a bit slower.

Think your right there (was trying to be historical).

Thanks for the input G, perhaps sticking to the Curtiss aircraft would be a better bet.

On further testing I've opted for the Tomahawk IIb which will mostly be up against the Ki43-II-Kai.
