I liked the experimental rocket airplanes they created.

but the ones i probably like the most are the flying fortress.

Hehe my favorite all time flight sim was Secret weapons of the luftwaffe! unfortunatley its gone now :(. Well let me clarify this thread. It's not about which plane is better it's about your favorite and why you like it. One of my favorites was the polish pzl p11c hardly fast but it gave more than it took. Heres a great link about the Polish air force in world war 2.

I forgot to mention that the flying fortress was the Most survivable airplane of WWII. They could still fly with Holes all the way througout the body.It was a tank with wings. :)

I like the Russian WWII planes. La-7, particularly. They were simple, tough and functional machines, nothing fancy.

And oh... I think the most survivable plane of WWII (also, the most mass-produced one) was the IL-2, also Russian. It was literally a tank. 20mm shells bounced off it, and it could literally crash but the pilot would walk away.

Often, I can't believe how much the Eastern Front is disregarded in WWII, considering that about 80% of the actual war (in all terms) happened there.
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

Mr Oni
I was going to say the exact same plane. :)

It brings back a lot of childhood memories when I used to watch my dad (an airplane nutcase) make and fly model airplanes. He loved the P-40 too. He had a lot of pictures of them lying around our basement. I once made a complex paper model of the P-40 but I lost it when I moved houses.

You gotta love the teeth. :wink:
