    We are back at it!

    The Sunday Bomber Operations at 2pm eastern is back up and running on TWC_Campaign Server. All are welcome. We will try again this Sunday since the Wellington is operational. We will meet at one of the back large bases and fly a mission goal is four Wellington pilots calling in 9 cover Wellingtons and four wellington pilots calling in 9 fighters for cover... Hope to see you every Sunday at 2pm eastern USA!

    Targets could be Factory areas, Airfields, Fuel Storage, and RADAR!!!! They are large Carpet bombing targets from 12 to 14 thousand feet...

    Re: We are back at it!

    Since I have been building the DCS Server for TWC on the Channel map I have been away waiting on the fix for the welly... That server is no on a 12 hour loop and I will be flying on it Saturday. The Sunday Hop was a good one since Anonymous and myself felt rather rusty and made a lot of rookie errors. But we made 2 successful runs on a few targets and look forward to another raid nxt Sunday...

    I would like to thank all the blue that showed up JG52, OBT Kendy and other. Red next time I hope to get a full load in the air trying to form up a large raid...

    Re: We are back at it!

    Sorry, about the coverage folks, getting back into OBS and trying to get a lot of people onto Discord and making things all work. Thank you shout out to all those that showed up...

    Our first hop got cut short do to Revell making a key effort into engaging the lead bomber... Second hop came off a bit better and we got to the target successful, but hit wide third run was the charm but lost a lot of the blue... This was probably the reason we made it through.

    Hope to see more people join us for our Sunday Bomber runs.

    We had 25 Bombers in the air with 18 cover fighters...

    How To Videos for the TWC Server

    <kadd (Coordinates of Target # Sample 234567 123456) Should be to six digit numbers!

    TAKE OFF!

    Get into a left circuit type in chat:
    <cover(# from Kinik List of Bomber or escort you want) SPACE (# Number of planes) SPACE (VIC3, AS) Enter this twice as you fly over the base headed in the direction you want to travel...

    <ks (This sets your beam) gives you course direction the top of the screen can be off till ya get closer just adjust as you go left is Minus sign and right is plus sign...

    Once you are a few miles out goto TAB menu and mission 4 and get to the kick List menu goto 6 hit it once bomber will lock on to that target and begin run...

    Hope these videos help! First one might have got cut off second one is right as I approach target...

    I did not known that the number of - or + indicated the number of degrees of correction. Now I understand why I have difficulties to maintain the correct heading. Thanks for this.

    If I remember correctly, VIC3 is the default for cover formation.
