BTW, I haven't seen you around on Friday nights, you taking a break?

Not intentionally... Life gets in the way. Worked on the AH Skins catalog, working on a number of skins, broke 2 levers off my throttle quad, was waiting (in vain) for replacements from this guy on the CH Hangar forums, but never got them, etc...

Tons of little things conspiring to keep me away, etc...

I have a dream, that one Friday the bombers will bomb and die. The escorts will run 2 sectors to no fly zone.

No fly zone prohibits Axis victory. Dont be surprised if no one is flying at T+75. I for one am not going to waste my time chilling on no fly zone staring at Jugs who dare not cross it.

Pity, such an awesome setup to see washed down the drain by no fly zones.

Remember Dont Go Feet Wet...errr I mean...Enemy Coast Ahead?

Maybe we can make the bombers off limits in the no fly zone but escorts are fair game?

Why not make it a no fly zone only during certain time frames? For example the no fly zone is active only before T+30 and after t+90, this would keep axis from bouncing the bombers too early and also allow bombers to land towards the end of the frame without fear of vulching.  Any axis planes in the no fly zone area once it becomes active again at the end of the frame are required to break off attacks and exit the no fly zone by the shortest route. Allied planes would not be allowed to engage an axis plane attempting to leave the active no fly zone until the axis plane has crossed out of the no fly zone.  The event CM already sends out "T+xx" messages why not add on the text "no fly zone active or inactive"?  Just an idea I had for a compromise and thought I would share.
The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

How about a neutral zone?

Europe, the final battle, these are the bombing raids of the 8th Air Force.  It's mission, to seek out and destroy all Axis targets.  To bravely go where no cartoon plane has gone before.

Cue the tune and watch a B-17 flash in front of the camera at great speeds at different directions.
