You may want to send a copy of these to Mr Frag. Looks like corruption in the DB.

Have the same problem.... seems like the pointers in the linked lists are getting fubar'd. The other night I had a problem:
5 TF's moving together, 2 were Transport TF's, one listed as unload, the other do not unload. At turn execution the computer kept reversing the two. Finally solved it by splitting them into different hexes.
I think it's the same base cause as the leader problem. Bunch of leaders in a linked list... pointer goes haywire... bingo, lost leader.

you probably installed some unofficial mod, screwed scenario database by yourself or just photoshoped those pictures [:D]
there is only one version of B V-IX in the game [;)]

I have 2 versions of that plane, 1 with bombs, 1 with torps. I never used a mod in this game.

Known issue...
The old aircraft type details are not getting flushed and updated after group upgrades and retain original info...

People still program with pointers???
Ooops, I forgot, this is really a DOS game on steriods....

Pry, I was wondering about this. Since I do not recall (someone correct me here if I'm wrong) a specific Beaufort V-IX model, could this be the game combining all Beaufort Vs, VIs, VIIs, VIIIs, and IXs (or at least those of those models in use in the game) in one replacement type but have the specific squadron data hold the date for the specific type of Beaufort that squadron was using? Just a thought...

That first one has the arament that should be shown in a Beaufighter-4 20mms and six 303s. A problem there.
