Country:  | What is Your favourite plane from ww2?
The peoples aicraft are as such:
Lanc- Lancaster
C.C - P.108
GrG - Me-262A-1a
LG - P-38 Lightning
Me - Spitfire
Brad - Manchester
That P.108 is nothing special, it was an experiment. Do you know they tested Spitfires with flamethrowers as a ground attack plane but soon realised it was stupid.

| Rear defense would be one thing. I would think with a forward firing flame thrower you would soon be flying into your own flame.

Country: |  if the cockpit of the pilot behind got couvered in oil, he wouldn't be able to see, so it would be pretty effective................
