My IL-2 shirts all have Spitfires on them. They must have released them knowing what was going to happen ahead of time. I'd love to fly against a He-162, or a Hurricane, or an La-7/La-5, or Bf-109 series, or...hell, anything. Anything, other than ten player rooms with nine Spitfires.

My apologies.

Personally I thank all the gods of aviation for rookies in Spits... ;)

(Very nice observation dkwookie! I would never have noticed).

Sure, they have bombs dk. It's that thing between the wings, just behind the engine. Every plane has those! Point it at the target, ram it, and boom! Explodes!

I hear it's not very accurate but doesn't require a great deal of training to use
