ahhh okay, that clears it up then, sorry for jumping to conclusions on you a sec there darko, was more referring to others anyway and was a bit tired so went off on a rant there a bit *is humbled* but yes there are lots of things like the Vc without the Vokes that i think would be great additions to the game with much less work than some of these other projects of building whole new planes (like the whirlwind and lancaster projects, though i am tickled as any to see these projects come through). i know they're not nearly as flashy or exciting as brand new planes, but can help round out the playing field nicely and could help sort of keep the masses contented while the harder work is done on the other projects. mainly in the forms of projects that just require keeping a current model and giving it a new slot with altered FM/DM/WM changes (like the P-47 and P-51 new slot ac's i saw were being worked on a while ago and have sort of fallen off the map). good new additions would be ones like making perhaps new slot versions of some of the numerous 109 visual mods that were out, like making a dedicated new slot G-4 which was used a lot by the smaller axis air forces such as romania and the slovak and kroat units serving in the Luftwaffe. Also some of the Hawk 75 variants i recently saw proposed here would be good. another interesting thing i read recently in one of the excellent Osprey Aviation Elite series was that finland's B-239s were sometimes fitted with engines from I-153s later in the war. need to do a bit more reading in the book to confirm this, happened to catch it as i was flipping through it at a book store so i'll have to go back and find it again, but would be interesting to see more what effect that would have on performance and how common a modification it was.
