Couple of questions about the campaigns

1. The list of aces in your squad on the main screen. I guess that is just for historical aces? Would be cool to see your name there when you become an ace.

2. Ace Allocated air craft. Why is it that my ace pilot does not have access to these.

3. Witch relates to the second. In my British campaign I am in 1RFC and am still flying the Bristol scout well into July 1916 seems to me that I should have access to a better crate by now. Granted I am a master at the 45 deg machine gun now, but I would like to move on. I know I can advance the campaign date but how far do I need to go. I thought the Bristol was mostly out of service for fighters by June 1916.

Thanks.

In P3 there is many real pilots included and not all had 5 confirmed kills that could be called "ace". So now all included real pilots that fly in your squadron that time is just listed there.

2. There is limit of slots that we could use in p3. Now in the p3 sometimes the aces have different a/c´s than player or other pilots. It makes variation
of squadrons like was real in ww1. Many times there was aces flying better new versions of a/c´s but sometimes experienced pilots choose to fly still old machine that they found better for them. That was personal choise.
Unfortunetally the ace status not giving you any different profit that way, but ofcourse when you get promotions and get higher rank you will get more responsibility example to be leader in the missions.
 
Hi Fenris,
3. We have actually taken a bit of license with No 1 Sqn. It was in reality a Corps (Army cooperation) Squadron, largely equipped with various Morane and Nieuport two-seaters, but also having the odd scout, until January 1917. During January '17 it re-equipped with the Nieuport 17.
Cheers,
