Or He115, CR142, Condor, Do17, Do215, Bf108.

That's disappointing news.

It's good to know that so much work is going into the FMs for the existing a/c though.

Thanks for the update B6.

I have to agree with this. Well the Defiant, Beaufighter and Do17 in particular.

Yeah, it makes me wonder why the Anson and Walrus were included from the outset.

The Anson was a trainer for bomber pilots as well as a general hack, the Walrus similar for seaplanes (as well as being an air sea rescue plane later on in the war), which brings us to the Wellington and the Sunderland (yes I know we have the Blenheim).

Seems to me that many of the original intentions for the game have gone by the wayside over the years since the planeset was devised, particularly as there will be no more 'ground objects', presumably including ships and subs, for the Wellies and particularly Sunderlands to attack.

Or maybe my imagination is running away a bit.
