We had a good time last week.  More planes would be even better.  Hoping to have some of my 364th FG guys there to escort in the Mustangs.

I Very much regret having made that promise. There were so unbelievable many fighters high over the buffs that I never had a remote chance of getting even near them.

Lesson learned.

Yes, it does. It's been literally years I have seen so many fighters flying top cover. And I do this hi alt interception thing for a while now

The 78th had a blast we flew our historic P-47D-25s and had a couple guys in buffs. Nice event everyone.

A couple of 78th P-47s on climbout this evening.

Was fun.  Interesting how it played out too.  TheMaj of the 4th FG and my 364th FG Mustangs were trailing the bombers out and saw the single 190 swinging in.  Stampf really worked it and the fight ended up on the deck.  Both Maj and I shot off a lot of ammo.  I thought I finished off the 190 when I saw his wing break off about halfway.  Both theMaj and I broke off only to see the 190 right itself.  Stampf got it on the ground 10 feet from the runway too!

As I said on 200, I think TheMaj and I will get 1/2 kill each as that 190 won't fly again.  But much to our disappointment, we know we'll see that pilot again, and he's good!

I watched TV and napped on the sofa building up my energy for October.

Excellent Lusche.  This is going to go on every Thursday night.  It isn't a 262 you need, it's wingmates in a co-ordinated attack.  I'm glad this challenged you, and I know you are good and well practiced at altitude killing buffs.  

Make the event better please, lead the way with a luftwaffe attack flight sir <S>.
