Diablo, if you have any pictures or a film.. please send it to me... I think it is important that I put something with your climb in this...

The one thing that I forgot to do is record my flight.  I was too caught up in the moment really.  Seeing all of the Axis and Allied aircraft together was too much for me to concentrate.  Then, to my surprise, Jester called me out to climb and I sort of went in to tunnel-vision.  Sorry Stream, I should have recorded it but didn't.:(

You can use someone else's film to get diablo's perspective... as long as he's within range anyway.

It was a proud moment winging with everyone there. Wish I hadn't forgotten about one teeny detail pertaining to collisions... was tucked in oh so perfectly next to a 109, when a netlag-hiccup occured. Lost a wingtip, had to ditch before the split.

to all who were there.

Turned out better than I hoped with no major problems. If we do something like that again I will turn down the ack and have us meet over a point on the map instead of a base. Also sorry the short notice - it just all took off rather quickly.

Would like to get a count on how many flew the tribute flight. Was about everyone in the CT at the time - close to 50 I bet.  

Would one of you guys that took some film please count the salutes and see how many of there were. Tks.
