Why BoB? I don't know, maybe they saw shooting down a few people in an aircraft, or dropping bombs on military targets better publicity than wiping out residential areas.

Hang on, got it! Air combat over water will use much less resources than a whole city or ten and seeing as it's not very well optimised (just yet) for even that they'll just have dismissed a large scale bombing campaign.
Still if they (or someone else) did a modern remake of b-17 the mighty eight with the virtual crew management , bomber commander mode , squadron commander mode it would be an instant hit. They could include flyable fighters and escorts a la b-17 the mighty eight as well to please the dogfighting aspect . A2A simulations said they might do a remake sometime . but this was 3 years ago . I asked agaion a week ago in the forums and they still said they might do it sometime , but not anytime soon.
I dont understand why but it seems all the company,s avoid the heavies for some reason , which is strange becaus if done well it could really be succesfull title.
