Yes Rotor, that is possible to plan it that way. But we decided that the pre-registration route was the best way for us to handle things. We know it could be handled otherwise, but for us, this is what works best.

Jordi search 20-25 FEB. 1944 BIG WEEK. It seems this scenario focussed around US/Germany buff/buff interception.

Theres a 100 buffs with 60 escorts going to bomb targets in Europe.

There are 50 sturmbocks(a8s) 20 109g6s and 30 190a5s.

Theres no need for target information and specifics at this point. All you need to know is what do you wanna die in........

For Hostile Shores there was very little stragic information passed through the ranks. I hope this is repeated here as well.

Register and choose the plane you want. Then someone will tell you where when and how.

Which LW gruppes are carrying the extra cannon gondolas?

depends on what alt we expect to see them buffs. even the 109g6 is outperformed at 25k.

an a5 and an a8 lay down at 23k. Short of a headon attack there will only be 1 pass. above 23k a a8 cant zoom climb to reverse and will likely have to flat turn or lo yo yo to reposition. by then the escort will be all over ya and the buffs speed at that alt would make a ded 6 attack suicidal.

So the answer would be 190a8 carry 30mm I would say 190a5 2x 20mm and 109g6 no gondolas.

But i'm guessing. Gonna be great fun

Can you expand on this, please?

K West · « **Reply #36 on:** November 08, 2001, 01:39:00 PM »

Maybe I can?

Large cannons, muzzle flashes, loud bangs, torn metal, dashing Butcher birds, compressing Allied planes, falling 17 carcasses, big BOOMS, lotsa Teutonic giggling, torrent of ubb after-action whines.

ooops!! I almost forgot this,

ok.

That's better

This should ROCK.

Glasses this is Feb 44 - before the Jagdwaffe was depleted. They still could outnumber Allied fighters over Germany.

So do we sign up for a side, or for an individual group that's listed?

fdiron · « **Reply #39 on:** November 08, 2001, 02:03:00 PM »

Where do we sign up at?

banana,

Thank you for the explanation of Why no walkons. That makes perfectly good sence.

Sometimes, I just cant committe the time to an event, depending on when it falls. So I dont register. If things change last minute, I pop in to see if they need pilots.

Several times Iv ended up helping the event team and grabbing a last minute flight.

I recomend a reminder a few days before the event, if you have open slots.

Roger, may I please backup Grimms suggestion on a reminder 1 or 2 days before the event if you have any slots open. Thxs.
