Title: 332nd Flying Mongrels in AVA tonight
Post by: daddog on March 16, 2007, 08:21:04 PM

Sorry this is so late.

We will do a mission or two in the AVA tonight at 11 PM Eastern. Ju88's and 109's. Attacking targets in the 11.11 or 12.11 sectors.

Hope to see some Spits or Hurr's up after us.

Agreed on both points.  The mission made the BoB very authentic, we had good numbers, it was just a great time.  Thanks.

We had a good time. :) Launched 24 Ju88's and had 12 escorts. Came in about 15k over England and were attacked by some high and low Spits and Hurricanes.

Some screen shots for your enjoyment.

Here we are shortly after take off.

Not far from the England shore we were under attack by some Hurr's and Spits which kept our escorts very busy in the back ground.

Sometimes the engagements were quite close.

Sure wish we had logs in the AVA. Most of the Ju88's survived, but we lost many escorts. I would guess and say about 9 of them. Sondog was quite pleased. He survived the whole flight and landed 3 kills. Gussman was a great sport and asked sondog if it was his bed time yet. Gave him quite a laugh. :)

Thanks for the fun gents. :)
