Ah, I knew the cockpit looked too good for it to be original. From which plane is it?

The Battle is a lovely plane, I think my favourite feature of it though is being able to fly it quite well from the rear gunners position by looking behind and being able to see straight through into the cockpit. The main reason I was able to shoot down Task Force in his P11 and also Red Max in his SBD was because I had a pretty good idea of where the front of the plane was going.
She's bloody durable too. Although not quite as indestructible as that TB3.

Me too. Was pulling into a turn and expected him into to come into view any second, then I saw him coming out of the loop at the completely wrong place; damn nearly stalled my aircraft at that point.

Ended up wasting all my ammunition into it with little result at the end.

Amazing considering the wingspan is about twice as wide as the carrier's flight deck...

I'm surprised you didn't ram him at that point Raptor, I thought you were going to.

I think I'll probably knock around with Fin and Arc over on the Clowns server tonight. A little less stressful on the old knuckle cut. I get to see the nurse tomorrow and find out how well this is healing.
