Crimean Catastrophe - Frame 1 Summary
« on: June 08, 2013, 08:53:51 PM »
Greetings everyone!

The Allied Ace was Klipper of the G3-MF he was representing Alexandr Klubov flying the P-39Q - Klubov joined the VVS in 1939. In November of 1942 while flying an I-153, he crash landed and was horribly burned. He returned to combat with 16 GIAP in May of 1943 flying the P-39. He was very successful with the P-39 and shot down several aircraft in the Crimea. Klubov was killed in landing accident while transition to the La-7 in November of 1944. At the time of his death he was credited with 31 individual and 19 shared victories and awarded the Hero of the Soviet Union twice, the second posthumously.

Klipper shot down two Bf 109G-6s, one flown by Drano of the 412th FNVG and one flown by Rockers of the 416 Lynx Squadron RCAF. Klipper landed successfully.

The Axis ace was Hamhawk of JG54 Grunherz he was representing Alexandru Şerbănescu flying the Bf 109G-6 - Şerbănescu was a veteran of the Stalingrad Front. Between June and August of 1943 he shot down 28 Soviet Aircraft and was awarded the highest Romanian military decoration, Order of Michael the Brave. Şerbănescu fought against the Soviets in the Southern sector until American Allied aircraft started appearing in the skies over Romania. He was killed August 18th 1944 by American Mustangs and Lightnings. He was credited with 47 confirmed kills and 8 probables.   

Hamhawk shot down 2 Boston IIIs flown by 68mjr420 of the 68th Lightning Lancers and Gooss of the 327th Steel Talons. He also had a friendly fire kill on Matelot of the VMF101-Nightmares.

We stole the kraken from Chuck Norris' aquarium!  Nice Job on the design Nef and quick turn around on the scores.  As your setup, I have to tell you guys that Nef watched everything last night!  <S> CIC's  who made each side clash so violently.

That's ok if you don't count that friendly kill, I mean I only pinged the guy once as he passed in front when I was zoomed in banging away at a Boston's wing. I am confused how that scored a kill for me off 1 ping.

Matelot has been an FF target in the past.. http://www.photosbyavery.com/ebayFrags/fragafriend.htm, so Hamhawk may not be all to blame..

Depends on if your funds satisfy ' ' Support APDrone in a life he longs to become accustomed to' Better-not-trust Fund.' to the level that accomodates the beer-cart wench and spare 911.

We strive to keep the Beast Unleashed, Nef.  Of course it doesn't always work out.  Last night was just one of those sorties where everything just fell our way.  Our partners in defense took the Northern approaches and the 11th took the Southern.  Somebody flashed a sighting report on country channel...and we couldn't have been in a better position for intercept.  I am a firm believer luck plays into every battle to some degree...and she smiled on us last night.  'Lightly escorted medium bombers...below us, coming straight at us'... A transmission every Luftwaffe flight leader lives to air out to the boys.

The men assisted eachother 24 times, in scoring 24 victories over the raiders.  That always makes me proud, but last night...the far and away most enjoyable part, was that all my ships,...all my men made it home safely.   The dripping sweet intercept and professional execution of the hot work is great of course...but getting drunk in the club after such a mission...with everyone that you goggled up with 2 hours earlier...That's a kommanders waking dream come true.

No Casualties!

Much fun had by all.
