What Mr.Kutter speaks of can be found here:

The free plane is the Gladiator mk.2s.
I've checked, and we don't have this vehicle yet, (just the Tucks gladiator and the standard mk.2).
You need to complete 5 of 7 tasks, and it doesn't look too bad.
Must be done before 24th.
Mr.Boycey will need our help.

Do you have to do all the plane and tank challenges to get it?
you only need to do 5 of the 7, quite a lot of those can be gotten from the war in the air event or whatever its called ( stuka's v AAA )

I've been thinking about making some youtube videos - what kind of videos would you want to watch? Compilation of kills / deaths / stunts etc or videos of specific planes (ab or rb)?
Well, my vote would be for Maximum OcUK derp!
i.e. as much team-ramming/killing and general stupidity as possible.
We almost had a good clip from last night of me, Hellcat and Essexjay all colliding in our brand new Gladiators while chasing one Fury!
Bonus pic: M4A1 76(w) Blunderbuss edition. Specially developed for AA usage

Mr's Boycey and Kwango are now proud (probably) owners of Gladiator IISs.
All above board and legal... mostly...

Played a lot of combined battles last night, which was great. Amazed by the T-32 though, that thing is crazy powerful, ridiculously thick armour and good mobility and turret traverse. My Panther D was taken out in close quarters by this thing 3 times during the evening.
One of those times I had a great game with someone from =308= who was in a Jagpanzer whilst playing Poland. We were starting on the east and we both went north at speed after spawn to set up along the treeline next to the windmill and overlooking the hamlet next to the lumber camp. We sat and waited a minute or so and along came an M4 Jumbo. Shot it right in the side and it exploded, the smoking wreck carrying on down the road at full tilt. Didn't know what hit him! Seems like the enemy didn't realise where we were, we continued to wait in the same spot and along came an IS-2. The =308= chap put a shot right into his ammo rack and he also exploded. Immediately after this I spotted an ISU-152 hiding in the houses and cooked this guy with an ammo rack shot as well
BOOM.
At that point we decided we'd had enough fun and moved into the hamlet overlooking the main town. We cooked another fool and then I moved ahead to capture the spawn objective. I stopped half way to exchange fire with some bad guys and then I turned to move back towards the village whilst my =308= buddy drove toward me over the crest of a hill. He maybe spotted something because he was clearly cheesing it and all of a sudden he exploded about 20 metres in front of me when we were about to cross. It was a bloody huge explosion and his flaming wreck just drifted past me nearly hitting my tank and trundled off down the hill. He was ammo racked with a rear quarter shot.
I figured I better go see what got him and drove over the hill and into the first bunch of houses. Spotted a T-32 behind the house to my left hand side (very close indeed) and I peeked out to make a shot at his front side. No luck. We then had a little duel but finally one of his buddies took out my crew whilst I was trying to maneuver into a firing position on this guy.
Great fun! We continued to spawn in additional vehicles and because of the number of kills I got about 1200 spawn points, taking out my 190A-5 and Tiger I during the battle, which we won in the end.
Really enjoying combined battles and ground forces at the moment.

Today I will mostly be downloading the new patch and not being able to play.
Desperately want all of the things on offer. But most of all are the MAUS and the FW200 condor.
