Well, they could include it in Multiplayer- and here is how... A new game type where the players attempt to simply make it from one side of the the map to the other in high or low altitude bombers- Each aircraft that makes it will gain one point for their side- other players can either fly their own bomber or fly a fighter or interceptor and try and shoot them down- or escort their own side's bombers. The B29 would be great for that type of game- just survive the trip.

as long as they re-create iwo jima on the new engine i will be a happy camper

What we need is a HUGE Solomon Island, and Gilbert Island Campaign. Both of those would be SWEEEEET!!

yea i know where you are coming from mate

id like to see some carrier landings

and you could have some single player missions that use those flying boats cant remember the name of them but they were called the black cats they did spec ops night missions, that would be pretty cool say you had to fly to an island drop of some commandos then fly back to base avoiding getting spotted etc also they did search and rescue missions looking for downed pilots maybe you could have a multiplayer mission where one team has to find and locate the pilot land and rescue them before the other team finds them and captures them once one pilot was rescued/captured another could spawn at a different point on the map and the end of the game the team with the most points wins ??

You're thinking of the PBY Catalina. The Japanese had their own versions too- the H6K and the H8K... all of them could carry bombs too.

I want to fly a Ki-100!! That would be a sweet plane to fly with. And then fly a Australian "Boomerang"? Might be an interesting plane to try out.

How about some fights against some early Japanese planes, I-16s and -153s v A5Ms anyone?
