Lusekofte Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 I love the Dauntless but are keen on Kate and Val too. I hope most for Catalina, Betty, B 26 , you know planes we likely not will get 3 Quote

I hope most for Catalina, Betty, B 26 , you know planes we likely not will get Could see PBY and B-26 for this initial midway/coral sea project, but would Betty have a place in either of those battles. Certainly not Midway, but I don't know about Coral Sea 3 Quote
