I anticipate opening registration in 1.5 weeks (Friday after next).

I'll let folks now for sure, though, in a few days.

Just to clarify the only 190s with ord should be the F-8s.  Did that deliberately.  Thought it was stated in the write up.  Similar to the Tiffies being the only ord carrying single engine birds for the RAF

F-8's... ?  I didnt see F-8's in the write up Dan.

Luftwaffe didn't have them at this time in the war.


EDIT:  I see them now. 

Why are we using F-8's ?

Just to differentiate the fighter bombers from the fighters.   Didn't want to have cause for any confusion on who carries what.  I figured it would give the guys flying it different skins and separate them a bit from the other 190 units.  If we had an earlier FB 190 I'd have used that.  Kinda like flying early Vbs instead of LFVbs of 43 or LFIXs of 43.  Making do with what seemed the best compromise :)

Yes the A-6 is sorely needed for so many reasons.

Works for me.  F-8 a great plane and packs a heavy punch as a fighter too.

Looking forward.

Gruppe Kommandant 4440,

Guten Abend, If I/JG2  FW190 A-5 is still available. I will take her reigns.

I will be unable to make the warm-up on November 12th, as I will be TDY to Berlin that day.
