Title: You got what it takes to be a good escort fighter?
Post by: Big Rat on November 09, 2014, 05:20:48 PM: If so, sign up for "Battle Over the Winter Line", We are looking for those that can fly with a team and put the mission above themselves. Pony B's, P-47 D11/D25, and P-38J's are all still available. As a bonus you get to fly on the side that I am on ... wait not sure that's a bonus or not :lol

Post by: Volron on November 09, 2014, 06:25:25 PM: Hmmm... It will depend highly on what type of schedule I sign up for. I was looking to get a Sat/Sun off, and if I find something I like with those days, I can attend. I won't know until Friday what I will be doing. Here's hoping for a good run. :) Also, I'll be in a bomber if I can attend. Don't get your hopes up for fighter. :lol

They didn't offer 109 G2's, otherwise we would have probably been on the same side ;)

Post by: mthrockmor on November 11, 2014, 10:43:32 PM: Last time we all strapped it on was Battle Over Germany. As I recall those of us flying German Iron just smoked your Amerikans and your weak PonyDs, 38s, etc. I see smack down part deux coming up. Should only be easier when it is PonyBs and fat girls...I mean jugs.

So yes, go sign up to fly escorts. We'll be waiting!

Make the poor Germans go back to Goering with their excuses of why they failed again to stop the American bomber onslaught :cry. Best of all you can fly with me :D
