You use to play Janes? Did you play online? What was your online name? Hmm/?

what about one of those japan planes from like pearl harbor

Recycled Spooge · 06-14-2001, 10:39 AM

I believe this could be the Fw190 about to land.

yea, I guess it depends on which model they used...whatever it was...they did an awesome job

Oh, well then we're talking about different planes. But this plane looks to thin to be a P-47. The P-47 was huge, but it kinda looks like a C-47...I don't know but for some reason it looks to big for a fighter. It could be a P-51, but I don't think it's a 47.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> C-47 has more than one engine, but the plane on the video has only one engine.

I looked at a few pictures of 51's and 47's..and I think you're right. It'd make much more sense to be a 47 since 51's were still making escort runs. The only thing that got to me was that the plane just looked to long or too thin. There was just something that got to me...I guess I'm just used to Janes version of the 47. I wonder why the gear is down, maybe it's doing an emergency landing, I mean the plane appears to be alone..so maybe it was damaged, although it doesn't look it. But the plane I was talking about was another one which had black smoking coming out of it and was spiraling down.

Well after studying pic after pic of P51's and P47's, I think from what I can see in that above pic it's a P47. P51s had squared off wing tips and had that large intake underneath the fuselage. They also had a pointed nose cone. And in that pic that plane has a stubby nose (P47). Also your right about the video of "snipertown". That is indeed an Allied plane. Whether it be a P47 or P51, you can definately see the D Day stripes on it if you look close enough. But why would he have his landing gear down ???

That plane thats going down in "Snipertown" looks more like a Stuka to me, far to small to be a C47. Maybe we'll even see some Spitfires, B17's ?? That would be cool. Are there any mission where we actually have to parachute in ??? That is something I wanna see.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I just saw the video again, and that plane looked more like a P-47 with its gear down.

I think it's to thin to be a P-47...

If you look at it frame by frame, you will notice that the plane is white and it has black stripes on the wings, so it's an allied plane for sure. So it could be a P-51 or a P-47. Could be this plane...

Yeah from some of the pics I've seen, the P47 looks alot bulkier than it does in the game and also not as long, but they've done a damn fine job seeing this is only an FPS engine.
