Look at it this way Dragon.  You are now wiser than ever! And legally protected against age discrimination.....

My memory isn't so good, but I don't think the 383rd ever got into P38Ls. From what I remember they transitioned to P51s before the L became available.

I'd have to double check my books when I get home to be sure, maybe someone else knows more than I do.

Del,

Its a themed conflict.
I only try to add a little historical setting
by using WWII squadron designations.

But this is all very loose and is only intended
to create a context and promote the theme,
not recreate history.

Everyone loves the Bombardment MoM's this one will the very very cool. I may join the mission, if you need any wing leads count me in. (Thats if anyone likes me on the Rooks >.> I camp to much)


EDIT: Or I can up a Mini MoM Mission to stop you guys. That would be sweet also. Hmm.

question for 96Delta
if greric was to up an opposing mission what do you think would be a fitting aircraft/s to do it in to keep the theme? Pacific, Europe, mediteranian etc.

I would like to see Fw190 and Bf109 variants as this is
themed to be in the ETO.  Me262's are also okay
but we generally slaughter them so if they want to
sacrifice their perkies, thats fine with us.

What bugs me though is seeing Tempests and Ponies
attacking B-17's.  Serious killjoy effect then...

As far as joint Missions-of-the-Month go,
GREric and I have actually begun work on a joint MoM
that would pit the Bishop MoM against the Rook MoM.
Depending on participation levels next week, maybe
the August MoM could be the joint one. 

With respect to cobbling together a mission specifically
to confront ours, that would be sweet and very
in line with the theme.  I hope the Bishops will cooperate
with your efforts Eric.

This one should be as fun as the others. Looking for P-51 escort pilots that would like a crack at the hoard

   WTG 96Delta! I will make time for this one. 

[GREric]

I will put up somthing real nice for this one. Gonna try to get +60 to stop you guys.  Matter of fact im gonna start emailing all Bishop MoM Squads. 

[96Delta]

Alright....I hope we go after the bish...there a bunch of softies 

My intention is to target the Bishops, especially in light
of GREric's intention to organize some historically-themed
opposition.  This is all contigent on the map and our
strategic positions of course.

Sounds like a plan....the .50 cals will be waiting 

[Tarstar]

Exercising turbos.... This should be a good one

[Little Dragon]

If the Rooks up say...B-24's,B17's,P-47's, and P-51's.....Bishops could up 190's,109's,and yes, the Jets! (262+163)
