Mission will be held as always Thursday night March 3rd, at 10:30pm EST but be shure to show up atleast 20 mins. ahead the get ready.
Planes in this mission are:
Allied
Lancaster III
P-47D-11
Axis
Bf 109G-6
Bf 110G-2
Fw 190A-5
I will like to see more Allied then Axis. The past couple of weeks we have been seeing about 4-5 sets of bombers and like 20 escorts I'd like to see half bombers and half escorts this week.
Alts. for this mission will be:
Lancs 15-20K
Fighters 20-25K
Here is the map for the mission.

Green circle is where the lancs and escorts take off from. (A1)
Blue cirlce is where the intercept fighters will take off from.(A33)
Black circles are the targets that the bombers may hit.
Yellow line is where the axis half to slay untill the bombers are spoted on dar.
Need three C/Os for this mission
Lanc C/O
P47 C/O
Axis C/O
Thank you for your cooperation I hope we can get alot of ppl in this misson.

don't the allies have B24s? I like killing B24s more than Lancs.
I will serve in whatever capacity you need TK.

yea they have 17s 24s and lancs but we havent seen a lanc raid in a while

May I make a Suggestion TK.
How about dropping the Jug and using the Mosquito like Intruder aircraft. They could escort bomber stream and come to their help if needed, pull a decoy or attack airfields to disrupt night fighters.
Could also limit the single engine German Fighters as "Wild Sau" planes around the target area only. 110's could be nightfighters and range all along the target route.
Might even do this one as a "Night Raid" and you have to find your target by radar. ;) Might even set up a radar intercept officer to direct planes by tower radar if you want to go that far.

An interesting idea, but it does have a few flaws:
1) Intruder sweeps did not start until the second half of 1944.
2) The Mosquito we have would have been employed at lower alts to ambush German night fighters as they took off and later as they returned. It's Merlin 25s lack the altitude performance that the Intruder Mosquito's had. The NF.Mk XIX was also powered by Merlin 25s, but they were equipped with N2O boost. The NF.30 was powered by high blown Merlin 70 series engines. Given the AH icons, the Bf110G-2 would eat the Mosquito Mk VI for lunch at anything above 13,000ft or so.
Still, it might be fun to do even so.
