Classic ww2aircraft.net quotes:
fly boy said: "isn't that the first jet bomber? becasue i have flown one in a flight sim before and i know how it handles"
"wait what ok who made the b-2 crash come on people that messed up its a b-2"
"ah yes the mistel those things are so annoying is games and in real life"
