Nilsen,

I can provide 4 - 8 Luftwaffe only pilots.  We mix 109 and 190's in our Gruppe.  We've just started participating in Special Events, Snapshots and Squad Ops, and we find this way more fun than the average MA activity, so give a shout if ya want.  We're on 5 115. Knights.

Salute.

Heh, milkruns are not normally a problem, especially if we are not stuck with those crappy pizza maps.

I think we're going to elect Blkmgc as mission photographer.  That's a great screenshot.

Ahem, and I will point out that those are beautiful B-17s in high group to the upper left!

Now if we could just get Dichodog to quit hauling so many beer kegs around, we'd be all set!

and to remember to raise gear and flaps when not on autotakeoff

Is there such a thing?

If you have some group shots of the 17's. Shoot em on over. I'll mix them in.

Was great fun last night!  Thank you for having us.  880 has always loved performing the escort role and take it about as serious as ya can in the game.  Look forward to future missions.  And although we didn't mind the slow action to start( gives me plenty of quality time to torture my squaddies) if the Luftwaffe squads can't get their act together we would always be willing to provide some opposition if necessary.  But would much rather stick as the escort.

Once again thanks, and we will be there next Sunday

Last night was the quitest mission so far. Of course those 2 ME262s that chased us back to the base were just a little bit late getting to us.

I'm sure there will be ALOT more action in the missions to come.

Yeah we've probably averaged in the first four strat runs, a loss rate of about 30-40%.  Last night was not "average".  Nice to bring all the ships home for a change.

It'd also be nice if the fighter opposition was limited to piston driven types.  I hate flying that far in a nice mission to run into 4-6 163's and 262's.  If its 109's, 110's, and 190's, or any of the other non-German piston planes.

The BDA say's it all. That was a sweet drop and an outstanding mission.
