Title: Thank You Axis for Frame 2
Post by: jvbicwil on July 10, 2010, 12:52:45 AM

I haven't looked at the scores yet. I really don't need to. I thought everyone did an outstanding job. I am thoroughly impressed with all the team work.  I am privileged to fly with some great people. Great Job to ALL. And thank you very much.

<S>
TO ALL

Well fought battles Axis, and a slute to you all.  We Allies had a difficult time in some areas, and some success in others.  It was a good evening for both sides.   :aok

Tried to upload the logs once. No joy. They had some errors so I deleted them.
Trying again right now.

I can't speak for anyone else but I thought the action at v116 was awesome!! Our attack group consisted of 6 Stukas, 3 109G6s and 5 109G2s...pretty sure only 2 pilots survived to rearm and go bomber hunting.

That group of Spit Vs that were tasked with defending v116 did a good job  :salute 68th Lancers. Every time I got one in my sights, I'd look back and see 2 or 3 on my six shooting at me. Finally lost my engine from a shot to the radiator and had to ditch less than a mile from the channel on English soil.

I am curious as to what happened to the allied strike at A49.  The only thing which hit it were a few Mossies on their second sortie.

 :salute gyrene81,

Last night was a fun night.  We were able to have a good set-up and stay within our boundaries.  It was unbelievable how many Check 6 calls were coming across our radios and then the cries of "On my way, hang in there, bring them left"!  This was by far one of the best FSOs I have flown in!  Not sure if it was due to our defensive positions, lack of icons, tighter wingman formations or better comms!

The fact that the Axis came in and took out all the radars along the coast was a brilliant tactic that our squad commented on.  Include the attack on all the VHs at once kept us on high alert with not knowing which way the attack was coming!  With that being said  :salute to the Axis tactician that kept our squad on the edges of our seats until the end!

USMC were slotted to hit A49 escorted by the Damned SE. Don't know what happened. Maybe they were hit hard over the channel.

Indeed, a fun night - spoiled only by letting MachNix sneak in behind me - never a good idea - "Check six Woo...BANG". Still I see I wasn't the only one to befall that fate -  :salute MachNix.

I was very impressed with the Axis tactics and coordination last night and the attack on V116 would have been more successful had the indestrucable hanger been a bit less, well, indestructable... :D

Thanks to TracerX and the CM's as usual.

That was my squad, we lost our fighter escort and due to battle, came in with only 5 of us.  We still got the job completed by dropping all fighter hangers but the outcome for us didn't end well.  But hey job done right!
