While attacking V28 last night, after hitting some buildings, I took a radiator hit to my IL-2, I tried to get as far from the base to avoid capture but didn't make it far in the air.
I turned the engine off once the needle hits the 150C mark, and glided to the ground, still in the Radar ring of 28, I saw that the engine cooled, so I decided to try to taxi out of the ring to attempt to get a ditch.
Turned the engine on and off and maintained a speed between 50-100mph with only a few short pauses for the engine to cool down and eventually made it out of the ring. After going so far I decided to attempt to make it home. After a lot of time, and even re-supplying at 18 to get more fuel, I had traveled about 2 sectors, right outside of my departure base's ring 129 when I somehow flipped over ending my journey short. Possibly due to a slight change in terrain from downhill to uphill. I wish I would have made it back, but I got the ditch.
I am trying to get film up of it, as I know some are bound to be skeptical, but it is proving somewhat difficult, it is over an hour of film. Any suggestions on how to upload ?
