I would like to participate if there's a spot left flying a Blenheim or a crew position.
thanks chuck :thumbsup:

I would probably be more helpful in a fighter but I'm not against flying a bomber.:thumbsup:

Whatever you feel comfortable with guy.
Ok I asked on Invaders thread I wonder if we can get a certain mission loaded at 2100 or just go with what's running at the time? Either way is fine with me. Picking out targets, planning flights..headings on the fly might be messy. I've got sort of a plan to run by you Chuck..not here though (the Blues can see it :) )

A rough plan is coming together. Chuck updated the list.

I don't have any preference. I'm open to any map. Thats just me.

Anything BUT Kanalkampf is what I'd suggest.

If you guys know people who might want to sign up, feel free to share the good news. The more the merrier!

Count me in! Fighter escort is my preference, but I'd happily destroy Blue's things with bombs if needed.

Biggs
Mar-18-2015, 05:49

Chuck, if it's not too late please count me in. Probably better in a Blennie....but either way's fine.

Thanks! And Thanks for organizing.

Any but the damned winter map. The stutter is that bad.

Who do I talk to? I'll likely fly escort because I don't have any time in bombers yet.

Chuck_Owl
Mar-18-2015, 10:49
Logan and myself for the bombers. For fighter escorts, I might have a few ideas... but we'll know when we get there. IMHO, Rob and Gamecock are some of the finest escort leads I've had the chance to fly with. I know I can rely on them when I'm in a bomber.

If your willing to put up with a newb, I will give escorting a go.

We will have a map restart with the map being at the digression of the server admin. This way we all have to adjust and make decisions post haste.

Viel Glück RED friends!:salute:

It was a good night, I think we won the day, Blues put up a good fight. We had excellent escorts to get us to targets. Some guy leading the second sortie got lost on the way in :doh: but overall it was fun. We lost a few bombers along the way. Big thanks to the 71st, 20thBG (my guys) 69th, Turn, Biggs, Invader Zim and many more that made this happen. And To ATAG for hosting this. A fun night. Thanks guys.

most blennies ive ever flown with ... that first sortie was amazing.

yeah, but that is the difference between being able to see the entire outline of the coast-line from 20K feet, and coming in at 500 feet. I dare anyone to do better with those differences. Navigating at low level, is still a matter of recognizing where you are, which may take a few minutes to identify rivers, towns, and other landmarks ,,,,, ergo ,,,,,,,
