Sounds like Vulcan,:) it was all I could do to prevent him from turning around and "trolling" thru the LW fighters.  He ended up with 4 confirmed, (Swoop with 3) giving MAG-33 a total of 13 kills with 7 losses.

to everyone, that was a total blast! And people, Watch the Movie "12 O'Clock High" before friday. It will give you a whole new prespective on this TOD.

Oh, and Big to the Damned who took one for the team with those escorts. Without them we wouldn't have been able to hit the buffs at all.

[edit] I just checked the scores, we got 3 B-17s and one P-51b

 


Back at ya !

I was not aware of yoru fuel status when we first called - Glad we were able to do what we could to help.

here are the sorties.  There are no points associated with them.  I would give the Allies a slight edge thus far in the TOD, although loss rates for both sides are quite high.

Well, if I were flying against any side with MAG-33 as the enemy, I'd assign two just to hunt down Vulcan and Swoop and kill them ASAP (So Rip can get up there in our MAG-33 scoring page, I'm running a distant 3rd for kills! :) )

That's easy Rip, just broadcast their position over channel 1.  

For the right price I can always eject them at the start of the frame. :D

Why broadcast our position when ya can do it yourself... from frame 1:

Ripsnort
Sortie #1
takes off from field 50 in a B-17G
helps Vulcan shoot down GoFaster
helps ZenCH shoot down Vulcan in a friendly fire incident

And you guys wonder why I flew a very "loose" formation in frame 2  :D
