    I love the current B-25 that's up on the site, so seeing more WWII aircraft would be awesome, such as the P-51D, Bf-109s, Fw-190s, Spitfires, A6Ms, and a B-17G. I may have seen someone working on a Bf-109K here lately.

    That's not exactly true. BeamNG has basic aerodynamics, but they are far from realistic and do not allow the creation of proper airfoils.

    Fork tailed devil. Seeing one of these do a knife edge at 450mph+ is breathtaking.:cool:

    If you ever get the chance (if you havent already) try and watch a Lancaster take-off some time. Its fucking impressive.

    Watching a lanky take off is on my bucket list, the sound of four Merlins at full song I must feel before I die.

    Oh trust me, you do literally feel it through the ground.

    Although with only 2 in airworthy state, both in britain, chances to view it are sadly limited.

    There are 5 IWM's. Duxford is the one I watched the Lancaster at although I don't think its actually based there.

    Yup. Wellington, right? I heard about one of the advantages of that: it allowed a crew to put holes in the canvas skin to climb out onto the wing and put out an engine fire. Somehow they didn't fly off, and made it back to base.
