I haven't had time to fly for a few weeks but jumped on ATAG this morning for a quick sortie before work. There was a mission on the server with only early planes (eg Spits I and I (100 Oct) etc).

I spent the whole flight getting radio reports trying to find a flight of 110s (I think) who were proceeding to various targets. I never managed to find them (although I got close according to radar at times) and eventfully had to land due to lack of fuel after they had destroyed two of our targets. Apologies to Stuffy Dowding, I'll try harder next time :doh:

Anyway, great to see something different on the server and despite my failure it was great to try the earlier planes again... And to protect different areas of England. Really enjoyed it.

Cheers guys :thumbsup:

+1 on that. New map is great fun! Nice to see targets extending further in to England, had a blast today just finding stuff! Great work as always! Here is a pat on the back....

Haha that's hilarious. Marz spotted a en enemy fighter when we we're crossing over the cliffs just north of Hawk. We kept an eye on it but it never found us... Wonder if that was you. I wish you would have spotted us(at least me) I wanted to try my back gunner myself to tell you the truth. Maybe next time you'll see us. Good luck in the skies!

:salute:

Thanks for the kind words gents!

I know of a few guys trudging along in mission building ATM. For example, Salmo has some examples of our missions, for the limits/performance stuff to go by. I'm excited to see what he will come up with.

Trust me in saying its not hardly as much fun flying a mission you made as you know what happens and when. I'm looking forward to having some time to fly and getting to be surprised on a new map for once. I'm gonna guess my navigation will be pure crap :D

Definitely looking forward to it, and I know some new stuff on the server has been along time in need. I do read all the comments. So here's hoping for a new start for some missions.

Personally I would love to see new areas of the map like the majority of the rest of you guys. Something like a battle of France would be fun as well. Obviously we don't have all the land we need for that, but I think a believable scenario could be made in the existing portion of France we do have.

Anyhow nice to see the comments. :-)

That is a good map. Takes a while to navigate to target when ur flying blue if u wanna skirt around and avoid being spotted in a 110. Well worth the ride tho as it has great sense of realism to it for both sides. A big thx to all those working on maps. From the little I've done I know how tedious it can be but we all appreciate the effort u guys put in.

Nice new mission. To explore new targets and to fly some older planes.

Maybe you could think about adding SpitIa 100oct for balance because performance wise 109E1 is the same as 109E4.

It is cool not having access to the "usual suspects" all the time when you pick an aerodrome to spawn from. Forcers you to use a different plane and maybe an airfield that's not as familiar. I always taxi to the runway when possible not only too to warm up but to avoid unseen obstacles. Hitting a ditch at Coquille "learned" me that. :)

I also like the fact that it forces you to try another plane and get out of that comfort zone, really makes for some interesting flying, But it also makes you want to group up and fly as a team too. Love it!

I would love to escort you guys, too bad I was leaving when you came online yesterday.
