If you didn't fly in the Coral Sea 2009 scenario last Saturday, you missed this sort of action:

But you can get your chance next Saturday (August 1) when we fly frame 2 of the scenario.  All are welcome.  Show up at (or slightly before) 3 pm Eastern time in Special Events II arena.

What's a "scenario"?  Find out here:  http://ahevents.org/scenario-related/scenarios.html

May 7 and May 8, 1942.  The world's first carrier-vs.-carrier battle.  The Wildcats, Dauntlesses, and Avengers of the USS Lexington and Yorktown vs. the Zeros, Vals, and Kates of the Shokaku, Zuikaku, and Shoho.
