If you would have kept that film rolling longer, you would have seen my lightning streak in and take out the 109s  :cool:

That was the end of the clip next one was a B17 waist gunner shooting his 50cal. Was trying to find you a 38 clip and this one was right before it. The squad emblem looks like JG11 but because its a 109E it may be JG27.

I think you're right. The lack of the 3 109's threw me off a bit but they probably just blend in in the low quality film. Or maybe they were just omitted in this particular application.

Yea I think they are JG27 becasue I think JG11 was a late war squadron.


Here is the Stab and III.group marking for JG27

Pretty much... JG11 was formed in April '43 out of some elements of JG1 and some other units IIRC. Though some of the staffel and gruppe art was kept from the old units, I don't think the Teutonic Cross emblem used by JG11 was ever used by JG1.

Heres a hi res cature from the film. I sized the video down to cut down the MB. You can kind make out the three 109s here.

I'd love to see a historical setup without the red tape of the special arenas.


It's coming.

Sure. I did a poll a few years ago to see when most people would like to have a mission in the AvA. Maybe we should to it again, but I would discourage Tuesdays because sometimes titanic Tuesday makes vox not work the the AvA and Friday because of the FSO. I was thinking maybe a poll between Monday, Wednesday and Thursday.

TK, we just changed our squad night from Tues to Wed, to get out of the Terrible Tues. mess.  Tues would work great for the 11th if the Arena vox issues are solved.  If not, I vote Mondays, and or Mondays AND Thursdays.

I think the big thing here is members of JG54 and JG11 conversing in a civilized manner without flaming eachother :D

Maybe this trend will continue in the future... :salute

We will need a stout hearted foemen to counter the combined Jagdwaffen.  Hopefully some of the Allied units of the past will give it another shot.

I also suggest dropping the term "War", in favor of "Battle(s)"...or nothing at all.  Perhaps just "FUN".

Maybe we can recreate (roughly) some of the more intense and popular Battles of the struggle.  At least as far as terrain, planesets go.
