Title: You like the FW 190? It's time to . . .
Post by: Brooke on October 16, 2011, 05:33:08 PM: Show them what we can do!

FW 190A-5's are available in the scenario "Enemy Coast Ahead," which starts November 12. It's a special event based on the 1943 brawl between the RAF and Luftwaffe for dominance of the English Channel. There are also FW 190F-8's available for folks who love attack missions.

If you like 190's, please do not miss this event.

We FW 190 pilots need to show some solidarity, get in there, and demonstrate why the 190 was called the "Butcher Bird".

This is a scenario environment of mixed-aircraft, many-on-many fights. This is what the 190 was made for. Let's go!

Registration is OPEN: http://ahevents.org/scenario-registration.html

More details on the event are here: http://ahevents.org/scenario-current-or-next.html

One of the most beautiful and deadly of WWII fighters.

That's the spirit!

Zoney, I see that neither you nor Tank-Ace are registered for the upcoming Enemy Coast Ahead. That's not quitting -- that's not even getting started in the first place! The way to rectify it: become a Knight of the Sky, of course!

I want very much to fly but I work through this events timeline. If by chance I should become Ill and cannot work on a Saturday, I will be joining you all (cough cough cough), it is not possible however to be sick only on Saturdays 5 weeks in a row.

Beautiful, yes. Deadly, yes. Just not quite as beautiful or as deadly as these:

Post by: Brooke on October 18, 2011, 03:06:38 AM: Those are awesome, too, of course.

The marvelous thing is that we have both available, for those who choose to to fly Luftwaffe and be Knights of the Sky!

Post by: Tank-Ace on October 18, 2011, 08:56:00 PM: Ich wünsche Ihnen allen viel Glück und gute Jagd, um Sie vor allem, Herr Pedweeb. Blei unserer mutigen jungen Helden zum Sieg über die Tommy Schweine.

Ich wünschte, ich könnte Ihnen für den bevorstehenden Kampf anzuschließen, besonders wenn ich Ihr Flugzeug über dem Kopf haben könnte, wie ich bin durch Nordengland Rollen in meinem Panzer. Wisst, dass wenn ich nicht bei dir sein wird in Körper, ich werde im Geiste bei euch sein, Geschwindigkeit Gott ist mein Freund.
