Just came across this bit about planes in Thunder Below

This is for the people who think that planes are overdone in SH4.

On the Barb's 9th war patrol (August 4th through October 3, 1944), a crewman remarked in his diary around September 19th that "...of 71 plane contacts, only 6 bombed us."

seventy-one plane contacts...Of course they were patrolling the Luzon Straight which is in range of land based airbases, but think about that next time you get frustrated with the numbers of airplanes you come across in SH4.
