I don't know about that. 100% and DT, throttle back and lower RPM's I could get it pretty far. :D



I think I'll go to the other side next time and make a intercept mission full of 190s and 109s. :t

Honestly, I don't fly the Spit enough to know it's gas details. I do know that it flies like a rock with 100%.

hmm I fly 100% in the 16 all the time and usually land 6-10 kills a sortie. Who told you that? :)

Yeah that was fun Talen

I never looked through my bomb sight, it was kinda weird. I Just stayed about 130 yards or so off Talens right wing and dropped when he dropped.

I hit quite a few targets. It was a Loooong mission, but was something new and was a good lesson in keeping a tight formation.

good times.:aok

Talen,
You should have told us. The 11th would have kept you occupied between targets in defense of the Reich if you know what I mean. At least 4 of us were on in LWO last night IIRC.
