Only flown in 2

BOB 08 +3 - found the 109's with to much advantage difficult to face (mostly due to the fact I suck) - Also, first time I've ever FL'd  (which was interesting once I got me head round what the hell I was meant to be doing).


Rangoon '42 (2008) +5 - Thoroughly enjoyed this one - flying with my squaddies and countrymen - much fun

Thanks to all those who make these possible, both in time and effort - it is very much appreciated.

I'll make it easy on ya'll...+5 on all.

It seems, I'm never able to judge a scenario, I end up having too much fun to judge them from a neutral point of view. Face it , when it comes to scenarios, I'm easy...(no reference to Easyscor, who's a  tart in his own way):).If I'm a scenario slutt, then the west coast boys, (you know who you are), are my pimps.

There's just no way The Bumba could possibly dislike something that so many people put so much work into. AND , maybe , if the participants would've put 1/10th the effort into any, and or all, of the scenarios, there wouldn't be anything but +5's all around, as there should be.

I admit, it seems to be more fun when , as an individual, you do your job well, whatever that job may be. Some people might not find it that fun to scout around for hours, while hearing about pitched battles all about, but when you find a box formation , and track it, leading your fighters to that threat, well...that's a job well done.When you have to run tanks over bridges that are key to a victory securing a forward airbase, that's a job well done. And in my case, and many others case, when you die in the first air engagement, but at least you used up some enemy lead, that's a job well done ..(sorta,lol). ...

...most importantly, if you enjoyed yourself, and you enjoyed the company of all them people from all corners of the planet, then that's a job well done.

So my answer is , yes.....what was the question again?

Battle of Britain 2008 (November, 2008) -  +4 flew Axis in 110's as escort.  Most personally intense flying, with good tactical options (not exceptional) available for the scenario overall.  Main positive was the leadership that came together for the Axis on all levels.
   

Hey, we were exceptional in my eyes  :D





BOB 2008      +5 (110c4)   - Best leadership/Organized punishment I've seen.
Rangoon       +4 (Ju88)     - Too much action in a split second of seeing the 50 + hurricaines  :lol
DGS             +3 (109g14) - not enough action...

Der Grosse Schlag (October, 2007)  +5  P51D of the 361st. I don't need o say anything. Anyone who was flying DGS should alreadyk now it was the best Scenario by far in AH. Amazing time, wish we could do it again real soon.  :aok

Battle of Britain 2008 (November, 2008)+4, was in a 110-G2 again, one of my favorite planes to fly.
Rangoon, '42 (2008) (August, 2008)+3, was ok, but was in a hurri.
Der Grosse Schlag (October, 2007)+5, FL again, probably the best scenario out of the bunch.
Operation Husky (June, 2007) +5, first scenario was a FL of 110-G2's, had a lot of fun.

I've been in a few scenarios and all are fun.

BOB, Operation Husky and DGS of course.  To many to list.

They've all been fun, but for me the most fun was DGS.  I actually felt what an Allied Escort Pilot would confront.
Being over enemy territory a long way from home.  No place to set down for any reason.  Ended up being the
lone P47 escorting 5 B17s home.  The LW Pilots could set down or Bail and re-up to engage the remaining Bombers and Escorts.
The escorts still had to do the job with fewer aircraft after the first wave of LW fighters came in and took some escort down.

The History is what gets my attention.  DGS was dripping with History and action.
