The B26 Marauder is one of my favorite aircraft to fly in the Main Arenas of AH, and I'm sure that I'm not the only pilot in AH that feels that way. My goal when making this track was to excercise the aircraft in some of the more exciting ways that I am familiar with, especially in relation to non-standard bombing approaches. I hope that all racers come away from this race with a bit more appreciation of the B26 than when they started, as well as the shakes and sweaty palms that come with each AHXAR race. Enjoy!!! - RDRTrash
