Title: WANTED: fighter pilots, for combat in North Africa
Post by: Brooke on March 22, 2009, 03:06:14 AM

The upcoming Tunisia scenario (an Aces High special event) needs more fighter pilots.  The groups needing pilots get one life in the Bf 109G-2 and one life in the Stuka.  There are also Bf 110C-4b pilots needed.

The fun starts March 28th -- in one week.

If interested, more information and a link to registration is available here:

Actually, the group needing 109 pilots will have one life in the Bf 109G-2 and one life in the C.202 (i.e., no Stukas).

By the way, the Bf 109G-2 that SF3 and I are standing in front of in the picture flew combat in North Africa.  Based on diary of pilot Heinz Lüdemann of 8/JG77, this one flew a sortie in North Africa in November, 1942 against SAAF Bostons escorted by US P-40's, during which he got into a fight with the P-40's.

We need some virtual Heinz Lüdemanns to join us in this scenario!

I do not see any "Rising" on the registration page.  What names did you use for your ahevents profile?  Or what is your game ID?

I see your name on the list.  Brooke or Bearkats should give you access to the Axis forum in a few days.

The practice frame is this Saturday.  Then in 2 weeks, the battle begins, for 4 Saturdays.

Good luck Rising.

The Allies are now filled up with no more slots available for registration.

The Axis still have room for a few Ju88s and 109s.

Also, talk with Bearkats about the XO slot that is available on the axis before selecting that position.  I believe Dantoo is the XO, and so if you choose that position, you may be put in another squad as a pilot.
