Ty for your continued efforts Brooke. I will do my part and populate a set of German bombers when available during this event.

are 110's restricted to bomber duty only?    :D

I may have said before but being out run and out gunned by them in previous scenarios it makes me want to puke.  :headscratch: 

Then they have the cheek to level off and start using their rear gunner on auto pilot,  like I was not mad before, that my Beautiful awesome Spitfire couldn't catch you.

I must have missed something in my pro British textbooks on how awesome the 110 was in A2A combat against single engine fighters.

Why not just ask for all 109s limited to taxiways and 111s to hangers because the Allies aren't up to the task of getting them inflight?  :old:

are 110's

It will be fine because, while Bf 110's do have excellent firepower and fuel injection:

1.  There are only 4 Bf 110's in this event.

2.  The Spitfire is faster than the Bf 110C at alts of this scenario (26k on down).  Past BoB's had fighters often flying greatly higher than was historically typical.  This one uses typical altitudes.

You should fly in it because it will be epic.  :aok

If Bruv doesn't fly in this, I might fly my He 111 over his virtual house and drop bombs on it.

If Bruv doesn't fly in this, I might bribe Zack to taunt him mercilessly on a whole variety of subjects.
