Yep, who was axis top ace?
Near as I can figure, the Axis ace was PIPZ with 21 kills and Ditto second with 13 :rock Disclaimer....I did this math while sipping Wild Turkey 101 :x AND No, I didn't separate Bomber kills and Fighter kills, in fact I just thought of it!  Nope, not gonna try now :cheers:

Ah, Zimme.  I'm both sorry and glad.  Sorry that you didn't get more fighter action, but very, very glad about how awesome a job you did at scouting.  It was the most-important job on the axis side -- and you did a *marvelous* job at it.  The axis side owes you a debt of gratitude.

He said, "There was no Bruv in it to steal all my kills."  Then he said that Bruv has no concept of the magical properties of back bacon and went off an a bizarre tangent, the details of which I cannot relate or fathom.

JG11 had a good run this scenario

So over all this BIG WEEK operation we had

78 sorties   with 51 kills and 40 assists with 28 deaths.

But, score is not the reason we fly in them. It is that 2 minutes of sheer panic broken up by 2 hours of boring flying.

Also, I had 16 not 13 but I had a lot of fun and enjoyed it.

Looking forward to the next one

Come on pipz, we all know it was Wilson de Moose behind the stick. You are just the guy on Vox because of Wilson' Canadian accent.
