all involved.

We upped from A10 in G10's, 6 pilots, including 1 guest.

Kronos
Snogoose
dawvgrid
Koba
Swoopy
cajun2


flew north to CAP Calais, as per orders from CO once we were able to launch, however, we missed a crucial order from our frame CO.  Got almost all the way to Calais before realizing our mistake, then flew to A11 to refuel, and into battle from there.  Arrived late over A7, had some trouble locating a B26 group, (Koba, and Swoopy saw it) I missed it, and had trouble vectoring to it.  didn't get to it in time to keep koba and swoopy from getting killed, but we did manage as a squad to take the whole formation of 3 bombers down.  Resulted in most of my squad down, only myself and dawvgrid up, but then I CTD'd.

Dawvgrid landed safely.

I landed safely at a4, sir!

My engine was a bit smokey and I was missing an aileron, but otherwise I was ok. :)
