During a test patrol in early 1944, just after refuelling, both U-boats (the XB and my U-boat) were attacked suddenly by Avengers. It was quite fascinating to see both U-boats firing their flak guns at the aircraft.

However, this suggests an improvement: could you (fsaconi) provide some crew-members for the bridge of the AI-XB boat?
The talented SquareSteelBar provided such crew-members for the NYGM XIV U-tankers. SSB is still active in this forum, perhaps you could ask him, if you cannot do the job yourself?

Stiebler.
Hello Stiebler,

Thanks, is nice to know there are Subsims using the model and like it.

About to use it in super-mods, I quickly tested in the GWX3 and no problems.

Now about the crew-members on the bridge, the latest model released has them. On the first time that I released, the crew were there but was not well done. Now is fixed, the only thing is that they are not the same used on Type XIV.


Regards,
fsaconi
