No, only 51% of the Western Front, at best The French Air Force is reduced to some iconic planes (even the Spad fighters are not correctly represented) and it is impossible to play a "full" french operation due to lack of french Two-seaters.

The Ouragan model is ok, but I miss a nice cockpit, same for the Vautours and Super Mystere. -
I am very sceptical about this campaign. The description on the sas forum is completly different from what I have read on early war missions He writes that he intentionnally set lot of collisions : at least in the french service, this is wrong, usually planes took off and flew separatly, and the risks were very limited (they only occured during landing phase, usually following a mecanical problem or battle damages). The formations we see on the pictures are not very realistic neither, creating a completly irrealistic wall of fire for begining of 1916. Even when a number of planes were sent together on mission such as bombings, they were flying within visual sight at best, but not as a close formation and were fairly vulnerable to ennemy interception. The capacity to maintain this kind of formation only appeared at the end of 1916, begining of 1917 earliest. This is fundamental because indeed, the famous bloody april was due to the fact that the German were able to have fairly large formations of scouts (say 5-6 planes) routinely flying together coordinated, whereas the entente could only have 2-3 planes max flying together. So, the missions are not at all representative of what happened at the begining of the war. And also, CUP in general is very badly optimized and I basically stopped playing it.

According to the most trustable aviation site, a F35 was shot down by a Fokker Dr I : http://www.duffelblog.com/2015/08/f-35-loses-dogfight-to-red-baron/#ixzz3kOss2CSp

In 1986, an alien was short on Uranium, he landed close to a Uranium station and refilled, but he was drunk and damaged the station. He does not remember the name of the station, something like Chernobyl ....

Don't worry, I am creating a new religion. It retains an interesting concept of Islam : the 70 virgins, except that you will need to be a member of combat ace (instead of being a martyr) And also the possibility for combat ace member to send brainless idiot explose themselve to eliminate whatver annoys you

The old TMF model are basically sound and accurate though they may sometimes need "smoothing", because we can afford more polies now than 10 years ago -
If you cannot see god, it means that you are a sinner and that you do not believe enough in god and you will go to hell !!!

Given the facts that all those predictions proved wrong in the past, I find it a little scary that there is no such prediction for September Good, a disaster prediction for september, I feel better !
