No way!
This would make the Brist far too much powerful!!!
Things on youplay are as they are for some reasons:
1) There is no rule yet implemented for Lewis guns ammo, so the double gun wouldn't have the only disadvantage it had in the original boardgame (having to reload, and running out of ammos...)
2) I'm not an expert, so I just recall someone else comment stating that the Brist was historically flown mostly with only one gun (mostly for saving load), even if the model had been designed for two...
3) When the observer rule was first implemented on youplay, the first fully functional Brist was designed with two guns, but after a short time it was evident it made playing againts it veeeery umbalanced...



In order not to make existing scenarios unbalanced one of course has to keep the single gun Bristol. I am asking to ALSO have the two gun version. Of course one would need to create new scenarios that are better suited for the more powerful Bristol.

Historically the F2B had two rear guns (as opposed to the single-gun F2A) and it was frequently used and quiet successful (see e.g. http://www.theaerodrome.com/aircraft/gbritain/bristol_f2b.html
or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_F.2_Fighter
