Fellow flying mates, now as EAW has literally spread all over the globe, I am curious which theatres, campaigns you guys fly most often.

Let's do this in 2 categories:

1.) Theatre/Campaign offline

2.) Online

Multiple choices, if applicable (?? - new word for me), possible - heck, even wanted!

Please include also if you fly preferably Axis or Allied. I plan to do a list, and release it here...

Mine:

Theatres/Campaigns offline
1.)Burma (Pacific mainland) - US
2.)North Africa - UK
3.)Guadalcanal - US

Online
1.) North Africa - UK, but would like to try others as well...

Almost always Allied, usually Pacific (I have just finished a German 1943 campaign- FW190A4, Ta152 and Ta183 ( ), but I didn't like it for some reason or another). I like North Africa too, but I never tried the East Front, probably never will.

Online, I once flew a bit with Carrier Div. Shokaku in the Pacific, but nowadays I don't do online anymore- there only are 24 hours in my days

1) France'40, BoB, North Africa, 1946.
Either side, but my favorite planes are the Emils and the Ta183.

2) Any plane, but the "historic" plane of my squadron is the Spitfire IX

I've been trading time between New Guinea and a P-38/P-51 career over Germany. Looking to design some more PTO campaigns though. I just got my cable modem so I should try some online flying...haven't done it before

Always Luftwaffe in a Bf-109.

I prefer North Africa because I can fly a Bf-109F4 overthere and because of the very good visibility over desert terrains. I also like the BOB, flying a Bf-109E, very much.

The Bf-109G2 is very difficult to fly in the Caucasus against those over-agile Russian fighters (here I prefer an upgrade from Bf-109F2 to Bf-109F4 rather than to Bf-109G2). The Bf-109G6 in 1943 ETO has not enough firepower to take on B-17´s but is good enough for other bombers & fighters.

At the moment I´m serving with I./JG27 in North Africa. My Staffel´s Bf-109E7´s are exterminating those Hurricanes, Martlets and Tomahawks. And this is onmly the beginning! Wait until we get our new Bf-109F4´s!

Although I have a fondness for the PTO skins and terrain, I seem to be addicted to the Battle of Britain. The only thing I do on-line is come here.

Offline: mostly Europe, U.S., Britain, and Germany equally.

Online: Usually Africa because of better visibility, in any plane with lots of cannons.

Offline: WOW! EAW has an offline feature?? You gotta be joshing me! How does that work!?!

I just use it for testing stuff actually anymore, I haven't flown a career or anything since last October.

Online:

1) USMC, in the PTO with VMF-124. "Recycling aluminum for the war effort, one Zero at a time." (okay usually more than one at a time, but why look greedy?)

2) Luftwaffe, with JG52 wherever Cfran decides people need blown up, Med/ETO.

Hello, Yes, The Pacific Guadalcanal-Burma I'm putting around in this new A6m2-11 ON line not yet, but maybe soon it will get better?

Now Europe is fun The Ta-183 stuff had to swim a few times.

Anyway, European Air War has many new faces now, and with all the new addons all of the Flying areas are great!" Its like a new flight sim".
