PS: Wish we would have had the fuel to intercept their bombers over 217, or as they returned to Malta. When they closed 217 it left us no choice but to nurse our thirsty 109s home.
Their heavies have gotten a free pass this series. Was painful to let them RTB in peace.
I did launch from 217, grabbed and engaged the wellingtons...errr should I say committed suicide, and one didn't make it home. You should have seen the spits looking everywhere for more 109's once bullets started flying
We could only do so much, and as such we did real good.
