Seein as how I was in both of those, I'd love nothing better than to fly this one.

However, unless plans change drastically I'll be AT Pearl Harbor on December 7th. Believe it or not, its a tough choice for me, but I cant pass this up. Good luck Jordi!

I heard the previous Pearl runs had 2 frames of attacks, and then the teams switched and the other side got to do the same.

Is that still going to happen?

In essence fly with me and hit the pearl on Dec,7 as IJN and then ya get to fly with me as the allies on christmas, what better present could you ask for.

I assume doobs is correct Krusty

Well, unless you tell the allies what *they* will be able to do, they won't be interested in signing up. For example, I am wary of signing up because I don't know if I'll be sitting at a field for 3 hours just reporting locations of IJN bombers, or what. Historically there were few planes that got into the air to defend. I think you need to sell it more for the allied side.

While you are correct that historically, few planes made it up to defend the island (6 to be precise), there were several signs of the attacking force that were ignored, and not nearly as many scouts as could have been in use. Pearl as a scenario is very much a "what if" proposition, using scouts that could have and should have been up, and assuming a state of readiness existed to respond if Japanese forces were sighted. Even assuming an early sighting though, there are several options open to CO's on both sides that could make it interesting. I really do hate to miss this one.

The 332nd Flying Mongrels are going to sign up under doobs command.
Looking forward to going over the rules and how this will work. Will be the first Scenario the Mongrels have signed up for in 6+ years.

Cross your I’s and dot your T’s.
