The ack isn't that good, but I think the problem is that the pilots aren't either.

Hey, I can finally say I was in a Bishop P-38 raid, about a week or so ago.  For some reason nobody face-planted, though.  I even landed 2 kills and about 6 assists.  It was a hoot.  I forget who posted the mission, maybe Kriskros, but what struck me the most was the constant communication that went on: speeds, energy, assignments, etc.  Start to finish, it was a lot of fun.
