    A year or two ago I saw a P-47 fly by near where I live; I was driving home from lunch and only got a passing glance as it went by... At the time, I wasn't quite sure of what I saw, as it seemed a little far-fetched for it to have been a real live Jug... But eventually I learned that there is a privately owned Curtiss-built P-47G called "Snafu" in the next town over from me, and the owner has a bunch of other warbirds in his collection, including a Mosquito FB Mk. VI...

    Beautiful "photography"! Some really artistic camera choices by Cap, such as the Mosquito midair collision with the Bf 109 against the sunlit English Channel with a Spitfire in the foreground, or the P-51 pulling away in a flyby after hitting a Bf 109 on a ship run. But the AI seemed really strange in this one. Almost no Ju 88 tail gunner fire (except for Cap), and the Bf 109s just motored straight in with almost no responses. A real "turkey shoot". Was that deliberate?

    I've loved the "Wooden Wonder" since I was a child, I had like 5 home made kits my dad got me...My parents worked for Grumman R&D after USAF R&D in Vietnam, I allways brag becuase thats where they made the F-14...and had test pilots as babysitters ,and some crazy stories, and a few crashes, the F14 scale model Grumman gave me in 1977 if I had it, it was like 24 inches would probably be worth alot of money seeing they made it...I also had a A-6 Intruder ,seeing they made that too, and one day in early spring of 1983 a F-117 made a few fly bys and landed...

      I was driving on a back road in Auckland NZ and heard two Merlin's on song.
      Guessed what is was before I could see it .
      Stopped the car and watched one of AVPECS Newly rebuilt mossies KA114 doing a test fight out of ardmore .
      The sound, the sight will stay with me forever.
      Arguable the best aircraft of WW 2.
      They say about planes If it looks fast is probably is. A mossie simply looks and sounds right.

    Have you considered doing a Final Countdown simulation with a late 70's early 1980s USN Carry vs IJN Pearl Harbour fleet plus aircraft? In the Film they never got to fight as the Temporal anomaly returned them to the present. USN Carriers had 24 F-14a or F4-J (The film only had F-14s IIRC), 10 x A6-E and 20 x A7-E Attackers

    Take some time and practice deflection shooting. The Americans were trained NOT to attack from the rear against bombers. If you attack from above and the side, lead your target, zoom past and up, then flip around and come again from the other side, lessens or eliminates the German's ability to shoot back.

    Cap, you really need to stop saying that the P-47 wasn't designed for bomber intercepts. The original design intent behind the P-47 was exactly that: high-altitude bomber intercepts. It got pressed into service as a short to medium-range escort fighter, and eventually as a fighter-bomber (a role at which it excelled), but it was *designed* for bomber intercepts.

    Jug might not climb very well but it can pretty much out dive anything out there. You keep saying it wasn't designed for this or that. when in actuality it was. Look up the stats on jugs vs p-51s and you will be surprised. as to which one was better in combat. There were some squadrons who didn't want to give up their jugs for mustangs. fun fact, there were 2 mustang aces, and 2 jug aces. so saying a jug can't dogfight is a bit of a misunderstanding. when infact if you know how it works. it can take on a the mighty K4. because its pretty manuverable for its enormous size. someone just needs to teach you how to fly it right.. and you would appreciate it alot better then you do.. and realise it really is a beast of an aircraft no matter what its doing. A2A or A2G. It does both rather good.

    If I could write code, I could probably overwhelm DCS with all the aircraft I would like to see in there!!! An F4U, F6F, P-80, and P-84 just to name a few of the early US models, for the RAF I'd have to go with the Hurricane, Beaufort, Beaufighter, Lancaster, and Meteor. For the Luftwaffe, the Ta-152, Arado Blitz, and The Fw-200, Japan, the A5M, Val, Kate, Tojo, and Betty. The P-47 has to be one of my favorites. Although, I wished they had a "razorback" model as an option. Ummmm, does that mean Cap landed a P(G)-47 "Milkjug" glider? Just asking for my other personalities.

    I have an idea for another wartime scenario. Involves China, involves the Solomon Islands, the US and the Australians. For those of you who do not know of the Solomon Islands, it's also known as Guadalcanal and the US lost a lot of troops there in World War II. I would contend that since the Chinese are just about ready to set up their military in the Solomon Islands, we will one day be fighting there to get them out. Again. In a scenario, I would assume that Taiwan has fallen to the Red Chinese.

    The scenario set up I thought was really promising but I had to turn this off after 15mins because it got boring (to be frank). The AI were no reacting with more than a few basic defensive manoeuvres to being attacked and seemed to lack situational awareness. Where were the escorts and why were the Germans coming over in penny packets? That was not the doctrine - the bombers should have been close together for mutual protection with fighters flying cover.
    This was hardly a challenge for you guys.
