The Bish on rampage used to kick our butts but it was a lot of fun. We Rooks had some terrific pick up mission leaders too.

Altitude is a bombers best friend.

Sure, but is it accurate for B-17s to be flying at 30k? Even a Ta152 has a hard time at those altitudes to make passes, the air is so thin.
