Trigr=, Crommm, Phenix and Rock launched from F43 in Ki43s at T + 0 and grabbed south to assist the 4th FG striking F92. Doing our best to look like 109s (suborbital) we dragged bandits west from F91 and rtb'd to F43 at T + 43 to set up for our next sortie.
Trigr=, Crommm, Phenix and Rock launched from F43 in Ki43s at T + 45 and grabbed south to assist the 4th FG striking F92. Doing our best to look like 109s (suborbital) we dragged bandits north from F46. We saw a couple of straggler B25Cs left over from 4ths attack, Phenix shot one down, Timos logged in at T + 82 and we rtb'd to F43 at T + 83 to set up for our next sortie.
Trigr=, Crommm, Phenix and Rock launched from F43 in Ki43s at T + 85 and grabbed east northeast to assist the 4th FG who were being chased back to F47/48 after striking F92. Timos took off from F43 a few minutes later and got vulched. We rtb'd to F43 at T + 120.
Trigr=, Crommm, Phenix and Rock launched from F43 in Ki43s at T + 120 and grabbed south to decoy for Bollok+ who had volunteered to finish the last target at F92. We engaged and dragged bandits north from F91 while Bollok+ closed F92. We dragged the Hurricanes way north of F47/48 hoping to run them short of fuel and force them to turn back but they ran us down and we lost Trigr=, Crommm and Rock in that fight. Phenix rtb'd to F43 at T + 185.
Kills: 1 (Phenix.)
Losses: 4 (Timos, Trigr=, Crommm and Rock.)
Thanks to Coolon, the LW CO and Jabo and Roan, the S3 guys, for a fun frame.
Comments: We still aren't generated the expected LW numbers advantage so you have to stay over 30,000 feet to survive in the Ki43s. The RAF has used two of their three frames of B25Cs so they have one frame each of B25Cs, Wellingtons and Swordfish. .
