Welcome to snapshot "Rodeo 204" on this weeks thursday (09/11/2006).

The Cross Channel Sparring has heated up and the US 8th Air Force has just added two more new P-47 Thunderbolt Groups, the 56th and 78th Fighter Groups. On April 15 1943 the P-47 Groups staged Rodeo 204, a fighter sweep of the St. Omer area. They stumbled across 15 Fw-190’s of II./JG1 and claimed 4 for the loss of two P47’s.

How will it end this time? It will be entirely up to You and your fighter skills to decide the outcome of this great matchup!

We will begin at 3pm Eastern (21 CET) in the Special Events Arena, please be there 10 to 15 minutes early.

You can read more details of the event and setup from the ahevents.org site.
