Kinda expect the content match the cover artstyle but I guess I am wrong.

 

[mrmm]

wait wait wait, can people really have a luxury to fly plane just like that back then?

 

[smolbaka]

Pretty solid

If they go into the depth of world war 2 planes then I'm in

 

[lovelyluna]

This is amazing.

 

[Vthif63]

Fck Russia . Bye

 

[MorrisSohmer]

This is bold I'll give em that, looking forward to it

 

[Barnacles]

Wow the cover art is so pretty!

... aaaand someone gets torn in half with their insides on full display.

 

[Rizkid1412]

@mrmm well, you can do what you want with your own plane right? A lot of people own crop duster even now

 

[sacrificial]

Undetected,
unexpected,
wings of glory,
tell a story.

 

[FoxThrowaway]

I quite like the setup. We need more WW2 stories, especially those about women

 

[pockettrash]

The beginning is a bit too idealistic for my tastes but I guess I'll wait to see how it'll turn out.

 

[duylinh]

Ah of course. Soviet WW2: Ukrainian, Baltic, Cossacks, Finnish, we want independence, oppressive etc...
Germany: Comrade ship, for the fatherland! Glorious soldiers fighting a losing war.
No mention of Prussian militaristic elitism vs the rest of Germany like Bavaria, allied armies, collaborators.
Germany actually won the war, unless the western allies are included.

@ThreeTimesFaster
page 8 mistranslation: '1 month ago' should be '1 year ago'

I had to check the numbers later because I was confused by the timeline.

@mrmm

Crop dusters were a thing since powered flight became popular. Without the kind of safety boards that we have today, and with simple biplanes being relatively cheap, anyone could be a pilot as long as they had the money and the room to do it.

 

[mrmm]

@Rizkid1412 @LGear ah, I've never seen people use or own it in my place so I thought it wasn't common

 

[AxiomDoggo]

@pockettrash this is idealistic?

 

[pockettrash]

@LotusLily I said the beginning is lol
1940s from my knowledge weren't the time when you had access to planes, your own decorated room, ability to bring food on a platter and then throw it on the ground without much thought etc. I know I'm being nitpicky here but it just bugs me. I'm not Russian but speaking from my folks' experiences, if they didn't have it like this I really doubt that an average Russian did. But maybe that's on me for thinking these characters are average joes.

 

[poweranger11]

Wow.
Call of Duty and Battlefield could've made missions about these women.

 

[Kuroww]

Homie should've just ran that bitch over.
