If you are not participating in the scenario, you are missing the fun.





THis has been a fun event so far and there are two frames to go.



The fighting has been intense, especially on the Luftwaffe side as we climb to engage the bombers



Having to help get ponies off your 6



Then chasing the Americans out of Germany



Then running for your life back to a safe field



Turns out any landing on the runway is a good landing   :D



2 Frames to go and we have had to leave planes in the hangar both frames, so we have a plane for you! 

FLY LUFTWAFFE!

Frame 4 seemed very active and fun.  Some pics from my perspective.

American bombers inbound!


Blasting one of them.


A look back as I dive out.


Some more shots.




More bombers inbound!


Split S'ing in.


Going after the leader.


Diving out again.


Bombers, bombers everywhere.


Luftwaffe setting up for another intercept.


Trying to kill Shuffler.  Failing.


Setting a B-17 on fire.


Tangling with CO of US 8th Air Force (and landing all of one cannon round on him only), the one, the only, Mr. Rapier.


<S> allies.  You guys flew great.  Some of the best -- maybe *the* best -- escort flying I have ever seen.  :aok

I photo bombed your shots three times lol. Yes, frame 4 kicked some serious donkey! For that matter, all 4 were fun. I needed that, most fun I have had in a good while. Thanks for hooking a feller up :rock

I'm sorry, Schwalbee.

In the future, please feel free to send me a ".p brooke let me in" even if you are a bit late, and try to come in to the arena.  Usually, we can fit in somewhat late arrivals who already played a frame and know what's going on.
