Its great the old "official" Il-2 eventually added so many planes but they not all were "free" - most came with expansions. On top of that a good number of those planes I would never even sit in the cockpit let alone fly them.

Being able to buy only those things you want is a good thing...

One of the potential problems is for online players, especially where scenario play is involved. If many aircraft are added at extra cost some guys may not want or be able to afford them. Of course it will depend on how much they cost.

The problem then is they may be prevented from play on some servers where a/c they don't have are essential to the mission. I bought many aircraft for RoF and still found myself falling behind.

They say the model will be different from but similar to RoF. I hope this means that they will package-release contemporary aircraft so that a particular era, like 1940, 1941 etc (or BoB, N Africa etc) along with their maps can take us forward in a sensible way.
