Thanks, Elvenking!
Whoa, easy there, Rigamortiz! :wink:
I know what Elvenking means. There weren't many Polish made planes in WWII and Poland was the first to be invaded by the Nazis in 1939 so they didn't have a conspicuous identity as regards their efforts during the REST of the war. However, the story of the Polish Air Force is an epic!
Before the BoB they fought in the air even though they knew they couldn't win. Don't forget that in 1939 the Luftwaffe was unscathed. The Polish formed a strategy of engage, then pull back. They took their toll on the Luftwaffe in the process.
When they had no where left to pull back to, they joined with Britain and fought in the air again, this time in Hurris in the BoB, and after the BoB continued to fight.
We can make shots of PZL's but if we want to show Poland in the air we have to show planes from other countries with Polish markings on them. :wink:
