The Let 410 was Static anyway, Just a typo! And No other updates today! There are other things confirmed, but not for release until we get the nod from the respective air forces!

I was referring to Dans point of other things confirmed but not yet allowed to say exactly what it was. No need to get so defensive on Waddos part
