Hey guys, didn't get on until real late since things are really chaotic at UPS lately, having no airplanes means more being shoved into 18-wheelers and a lot more loading for grunts like me
Started my night with one of my "oh geezus, here he comes again" long range Lancaster missions into Rook HQ. MiG came up in a 109 but he sat on my six and climbed, once he was at D800, I poured everything I had into his left wingroot and sent him parachuting done. Eggs away on HQ and put the Rook radar down for 15 minutes (figured it would help our attempts at A7/A8 area). Just as I'm feet wet heading for home, I see a 109, most likely MiG wanting revenge, heading my way. He didn't stay on my 6 this time and did those famous sweeping attacks. Got some hits on him but ran out of ammo and was eventually downed before help could arrive at our 23k altitude. MiG, great fights! Nice to trade Salutes with you in there.
At 33, it was a matter of trying to evict Bish from our home island. As any Knight can attest to, on any given day or night, we can have the most people in the arena, and still not cooperate to get one base
We are always full of Generals, it seems! hehe. What was crazy about 33 was its a huge base and impossible for one Lancaster/Buff to down. Once you drop on hangars, return, rearm, and go back up, they are up again! Focused on hitting facilities like fuel, radar, barracks, etc and slowly we gained support from fighters. Tried to sneak a few goons in but Rammjagr seemed to smell me coming on almost every run. Just couldn't get enough fighter cover there, as towards the end, I had B-26s chasing me down
I think I suprised a few spits by pulling some neat vertical manuevers in the C47 and even out jink a few others before loosing all my energy and being blasted. But, it was a good time.
As much as I hate that Ndisle map, last night's battles were great. We've got some really classy people in there and I thank you for the great fights.
