Welcome aboard followers, new and old. In this short dev blog, we are giving you a glimpse of the cockpit, answering more of your questions and we have a few new comic pages for you.

I’ve put those questions to the developers, and I’ve got another round of answers for you. [b]Are the ground textures and terrain getting updated?[/b] The ground textures are all procedurally generated so we're hoping to improve then. The terrain may get slight improvements through increased triangle counts. [b]Will we still be able to customize the skins and nose-art for our bombers like before?[/b] Yes, there will be a selection of nose art to choose from [b]Will the formations increase in size?[/b] Yes, the goal is to increase the formation sizes but how much will depend on performance. [h2]The Regensburg Raid Part 2[/h2] Ok, on the comic front we have done a little bit of renumbering as we have added a “Introductory page” this page focuses on Beirne Lay Jr, whose work you will likely be familiar with as a writer and maritime documentarian. You may have even seen his name appear in the credits of movies in television shows you’ve watched over the years – I’m showing my age here.
