Nice work. It is my opinion(for what it's worth) that the Focke Wulf 190Bd(long nose) was the finest fighter in the war,...bar none.

hmm..I'd have to say the P-51 could hold it's own, but that's just starting something..;) that's a lot of metal going very fast in a small space..the explosions might be appropriate..;) great work.

Sackrat: I have to disagree. When Herman Goreing asked his fighter pilots what they wanted to ensure victory over the British, they said 'Spitfires'.................The Spit' was developed from a superior design than the FW190 and had a proven track record as a racing plane well before the war started. It had greater manouverablility and speed, and out-gunned the 190. However, we're all entitled to our opinions. ;-)

I agree that the Spit was the best fighter, BUT although it outgunned the 190 it also ran out of ammo faster. The best plane was IMHO the DeHavilland Mosquito :-)

Thanks guys. No "best plane" arguments from me as I love them all.
