Hey Butch, i wish you good luck with your project. In AH all players use the build in vox system, while some loose the vox support from time to time it works pretty well and has the bonus that you can talk with everyone, while teamspeak makes you an isolated group.
I am in a pure fighter squadron and i fly fighters for air to air fights most of my time. I really miss heavy bomber formations, its great to fly with or against 3,4 or more boxes of bombers. Loved the freebirds missions.
When youre squad decides to be on the knight side and you want fighter escort ask anyone of my squadron, we did and still do provide fighter escorts at times.
On Squad missions we fly Spitfire MkV or 9, if they can do the job. When it is a real long escort we might be convinced to use another RAF plane.
Some of the best flights in AH2 i had was as fighter escort or fighter sweep, i like that kind of engagement.
ciao jan
