April 18, 201214 yr I think it is a P 40c... IMO, this one has the vents. More images here ... http://www.lockonfiles.com/index.php/topic/37228-a2a-p-40c-checkertail-clan-v100a/
April 18, 201214 yr YAY! I love the Warhawk. Instabuy, basic or not. And taking a moment to repeat: This was in the pipeline before the game launched and has nothing to do with feedback or data received since then.
April 18, 201214 yr It does seem to be the P-40C as shown below Yet another "useless" aircraft to me, apparently MS thinks that flying 150 Knots across Hawaii is fun for 2 hours to get from one place to the next carrying 4 passengers, at this rate even if I "cheat" and skip to waypoint (what fracking fun is that?) it will take me 87 years flying 22 hours a day to get 2 million passengers transported.
April 18, 201214 yr Yeah I hope it has a cockpit too, but it may not. I think it's a P-40B, that's what was used at Pearl Harbor. Below is a model, doesn't have the ducts, but the oil cooler air exhaust is just like what MS Flight is showing. Ok that right there tells me its not a P-40 Um that's a P-40F WAY too late for Pearl. Totally different cowling too. Think early P-40B or C. www.stratoart.com Fine Art by Dale Jackson "Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings..."

April 18, 201214 yr Even if I don't purchase this new DLC, I, (we) have had fun trying to find out which aircraft it is, I have learnt a lot more about WWII airplanes in the process, and had some fun at the same time. I will definitely purchase it "IF" it has a CP Gary
April 18, 201214 yr Now that we know it is a P-40C (or possibly B, would be nice to know if it has a cockpit (I kind of doubt it). www.stratoart.com Fine Art by Dale Jackson "Oh!

April 18, 201214 yr Dammit... I like the P40, but I've got enough versions of it in other sims already, and with VC. I was trying to make a room for Flight as a GA simulator, which it seemed most suited for, but now they're making it some sort of warbirds virtual museum, except that any good warbirds virtual museum should really let you check out the cockpit... Meh, PtiSinge out...
April 18, 201214 yr Maybe it is a heads up to Paul Allen ( co-founder of MS.) He has a P-40C Tomahawk, Mitsubishi A6M and a P-51 in his collection. ( the dev team would have no problem acessing these planes I would think !) http://www.flyingheritage.com/TemplateMain.aspx?contentId=43 Fred. Frederic Steiner.
April 18, 201214 yr Lovely pics everyone! Looks like I'm gonna get REAL PROFICIENT with the Maule and RV if there's no pit! Simmo W, Melbourne, Ozhttp://www.youtube.com/user/id5556
April 18, 201214 yr I know what it is, it's a P-40 - which makes perfect sense being in Pearl Harbor I think you is right. I hope (but don't believe) that it will have a full cockpit.
April 18, 201214 yr I think you is right. I hope (but don't believe) that it will have a full cockpit. I would like to have a cockpit in it too. I have a feeling it will not (because the Mustang and Zero did not.) www.stratoart.com Fine Art by Dale Jackson "Oh!
