Thanks for flying in it, Shuffler.  <S>!

It was quite fun -- even though Bruv was abusive towards my peace-loving He 111's, which were only over England in order to drop cans of jam.  I hear that the English are mad for jam.

was great fun ,  I love these informal BofB events.   It's like seeing or hearing a spitfire zoom overhead un-expectedly on a non airshow jolly.   

I was a bit off last night made a couple of tactical errors that resulted in Brooke getting more bombs off than he should have and having to fly a Hurricane for more sorties than one should have to endure.

3 kills short of the entire Luft total and 2 deaths   shocking performance.   It's like bronze at the olympics.     :(
