It's a sub for the Spit LF. IX.  We could have used the XVI, but I think the full span VIII with the correct period armament is a better sub - performance should be almost identical except for the increased range.

Panzzer or Mr. Fork.

Is it possible to add an airfield to the rear field list ??  

Shifty, our 78th FG CO has told me that A26 is where Duxford is located.  It would be great if we could up from our Historic Home Field, with Our P47's and P51's as they become available.

Thx in advance for any help you give us.:)

yup true, thanks for the clarification.  the extra range really doesn't matter in the AvA.

Next RPS, please don't forget to the "Bomber" Guys and Carrier Guys - they like to fly their plans as well.

Man cannot live by Spit and 109 alone.  :aok

Please put the damn fuel burn and flak back to where it belongs also. The "Furball" arena is nice but wears thin after awhile.

Heh, Jester, stop in and see the escorted bomber missions that Filth has been running.

Six Juggs (4 from the 78th FG) an 1 Spit against "The Hun Horde."

Wonder where the Gunfighters were?  ;)

Fork, Kongkyuk and I were all logged on, I think.  At least during the 10-11 p.m. Eastern Time mission, Allies had slightly greater numbers.

Actually I believe its A27.  Debden is A5.

You sure about that Fencer?

It seems by this map of East Anglia that Debden is further South and Duxford might be A5.

You know I was over there in 1999.  Went to Debden and to the base which is a UBX Royal Army base now.  The airfield is still there.  Got a great picture of me at the end of the runway.  Also went to Duxford but ya know that place just doesn't do it for me. :)

Thing I am kicking myself to this day is that I didn't goto the Rose and Crown in Saffon Waldon.
