I know this has probably been requested before but could we have a B-24D. All I really want is a B-24J with the glass nose of the D. I don't care about FM or anything, all I would like is the glass nose. I would do it if I could model. I will have no problem waiting for it.

+1000000000 This would be awesome for a 1943 Ploiesti mission!

Would also be a good time to get the contrails hooked correctly to the engine position too.

I believe the B-24D is being worked on. Should be coming up shortly.

[Fryslanboy]

or someone could rebuild the nose turret of the J

+1 bump to this one...

:drinking:

[Fryslanboy]

sorry for the bump, but i am right, though,(the nose gunner of a b25 in a b24 looks bad)

[Chieff]

i have 1 question now..maybe sounds crazy...but can 3d models/cockpit/position be imported(or before edited in some 3d programs) from other games-simulators :???:

Why not a B-24 Anzon Carrier, B-24L, and B-24M too?

[Chieff]

Why not a B-24 Anzon Carrier, B-24L, and B-24M too?

i think....1. things 1.
...D was of most use...after J what we already have..

i rarely heard about those versions...and i really dont see any difference...

is this L version?? or its not...or...its J???
