XF5U Flying Pancake
« on: January 12, 2013, 07:02:49 PM »

why didn't i think of this before. It's my favorite plane during WW2. I am requesting the XF5U flying pancake. Even tho it didn't really see combat during the war. It is still the coolest prop plane ever made, and would be a great addition to IL2

Those flying saucer pancakes look pretty cool.  8) I like these Radical designs.

Always loved this... well, hard to call it a bird. Still, with a take-off speed just over 50 mph, it'd be a real asset on a carrier!

Lots of surface area to shower with cannon fire!   It would be fun to shoot this model up.
