<S> Bish for big raid 8/12 9:30 EST
« on: August 12, 2008, 09:35:07 PM »
A big  :salute to all of the Bish that ran a big bombing raid into Nit territory tonight.  JG11 had the great fortune to be in your area and it really made our night.

I saw about 4-5 formations of B-17s escorted by wave upon wave of P-51s, with a couple P-47s and Spits mixed in for good measure.  Total number for the raid must have been about 25 pilots?

A big :furious to shamus for shooting down his FSO squad mates. :lol

Yep, was a great mission led by ThndrEgg.  I believe we had 12 sets of B-17s and 20ish 51s at the start, losing and gaining some along the way.  Running into your group of 109s, 190s and 152s really made it worth flying.  Very historical looking also. :aok

 :salute

Hey guys, thanks. It was good fun all the way around. Fun fights, and sheds to smash all at the same time. Great fun! <S>
