Fellows;
Do you have anything in mind for the Milton b-26 Marauder? I love your A-20G and was hoping you were going to do the same with the B-26?

Dvslats, Milton, and Co.,
You all did an awesome job with this one, and many thanks for your efforts to bring this to CFS2. The Douglas A-20 is one of my perennial favorites of WWII, and seems often overlooked when aircraft are discussed. A reliable, nimble, and sleek bird with plenty of horsepower.

Dave,
Don't know if this would interest you or not, but large numbers of the A-20B/C and (later on) A-20G models ended up in Soviet hands, and they thought pretty highly of her: By mid-1943 Soviet pilots were very familiar with the A-20B and A-20C. The general opinion was that the aircraft was overpowered and therefore fast and agile. It could make steep turns of up to 65° angle, while the tricycle landing gear made for easier take-offs and landings. The type could be flown even by crews with minimal training. The engines were reliable but sensitive to low temperatures, so the Soviet engineers developed special covers for keeping propeller hubs from freezing up.
And you're welcome.

Here are some Soviet A20G schemes that are available for fs9, and there are a couple more still underway in my paint shop. I'll be more than happy to save them as 16bit555 textures and provide links for download here on this thread if there is any interest.
