I pick the HE177.............WAIT forget that!

Instead I'll pick;
Carrier Fighter = F3F Wildcat
Dive Bomber = Dauntless
Medium Bomber = Boston (not sure about this one)
Heavy Bomber = B17 (duh)
Fighter = P40...no, ME109
Anti-shipping/Recon. = Catalina
Transport = C47 (I think they were around as a civilian craft)

Its F4F Wildcat not F3F.
The Dauntless prototype first flew in 1939 but did not enter production and service until 1940.
The Boston did not enter service until January 10, 1941.

No it really isnt funny, i mean its ok to make corrections, serious ones on another post, i myself have done this, and changed my list mulitiple times, and yeah i have messed up a few times with aircraft that werent into production yet, but come on, that HE-177 thing was just too much, not to mention that it wasnt really that great of an aircraft anyhow.

I didn't know that humor was verbotten.

Humor is allowed and encouraged, however since I was discussing it with you in the Best Bomber thread, it was no longer funny.

Maybe I dont wanna give a demonstration of humour...Maybe im wearing my sensible trousers...Thats not likely though, I never wear trousers. Express yourself! go on, do it. Imagine me expressing my self not wearing any trousers. You dont want to imagine it but you are arent you? Ha, I laugh in your face for thinking of me wearing no trousers against your will. You sick perverts!

the lancaster kicks ass · 12-10-2005, 05:43 PM
