Which Bomber was best (hee hee hee)

[Professor Brensec]

Yes, there is a jetstream in germany too, helped you while going to the target.

And the B-29 did fail in the beginning because they bombed from high-altitude.
When they started firebombing tokyo they got more success, but that came because of unapporved tactics: flying a lot lower

As for the 'firestorms' in Japan, the predominance of wooden housing and buildings was the real reason for the fact that the whole place went up so badly on every raid.

Boy, talk about "the rain on Ivan's parade!"
What does a bomber have to be, to stand out, beyond just an aerial ordanance dump truck?  I'm going with the Stuka, just for looks! I would have made a lousy engineer..."yeah, it looks cool, let's build it!" Although before the days of CAD, I think that was a bigger design element. The German's were living testament to the fact. I also chose the Stuka, because sometimes it's just more fun to drive head-on into traffic!
