Yesterday I saw wave after wave of Bish Lancs bail out, A1 LWO, after flinging their 1,000lb bombs from 2,000'. I guess they figure "why fly all the way back when you can bail and deliver twice the tonnage in the same time." :huh

Its good to know "some folks" are still flying the bombers the way they were meant to be flown. :salute

It should be simple, if someone hits enter enter enter enter enter enter enter enter enter, have the game call them a looser, and auto kick them.

But no, we will have to watch it happen for the next eight years.


About the boston, i hear the A20G is some 20-30mph faster at all alts than the bostons, has more fuel & better guns, not to mention holds the bomb load that 2 bostons can.


Regardless,dang nice story,! :salute

Good Mission - thanks for the tale.
Nothing better than the combination of planning the mission, hitting the target to your expectations, outwitting the "buff hunters" and bringing all your virtual crew home.
It also saves a lot of virtual letter writing to all the crew's virtual relatives trying to explain that because you took a flight of lancs in at 5K through a furball you got shot down.
I hope you weighed up the virtual lives you took smashing the virtual city to the effort of winning the virtual war.
Bomber missions, after all, are the thinking mans domain.
Suspension of disbelief rules - if it doesn't crank up HALO.
