S3 Series

Ok, I believe all fighter groups know what is required of them.
Hopefully we still do have the P51D available.
Timing for breaking radar by both the bombers/escorts and the 352nd will be figured once all the cats get herded up and otw to targets with updates as the frame develops.
If Robert or someone else takes out the emitter at F29 early on, we will have to factor that in for the 352nd timing.

Sleepy, I defer to your bomber skills and knowledge to decide how many and which targets to attack.
I know this can/will be affected by buff pilot turnout numbers. Splitting the bombers into 2 grps is good in the area you mentioned, in a number of ways I believe.
If more bombers are needed we will scrounge some up from the ranks.
Is the 8 horizontal line, and S of it 5 miles, a good corridor to egress on? (we will be on their radar, but no real choice) If so we can have all downed fighters head
there for reception escort, as well as any other fighters not on station.

I'll be in tower for gci for a large part of the frame. 352nd- our dar extends fairly deep for us, I'll keep you up to date on dar picture. Ask if I get lax in reporting ; )

I hesitate to start a new topic with orders that don't have all the maps/recon photos, etc.

Thanks for all the intel nookyb.
Thanks to sleepy for providing the bomber input. It would be nice if every frame that had bombers had a buff representative present here during the planning.
Thanks to all who contributed to the conversation and decision making. The result is some of the best planning discussions we have had here in many moons. Hopefully it works.

We all should share in the CO credits.

Yes P51D.

Just too far for the Jug.

If wanted then I will go P-51D with a wingman, 2x 1000 lb bombs loadout, bomb/strafe the radar at F29 and then rearm with droptanks at F26, and go join the 4th FG for escort.

/Robert

you are too valuable as a leader, I will volunteer in your stead to hit radar tower at f29

just the lone tower?

we can talk prior to frame.

Cool,

If your assigned wingman is not there, I volunteer to wing for you.

If the 4th can take it down, it would be beneficial to the ruse of us coming straight in.
Seems to only be an emitter at F29. Of course there is an 88 close by, with other 88's scattered
along the coast that are mostly W and S of the emitter.

no problem!

352nd reads and wants confirm that P-51 is back on the table for use.

To All:

This has been the most inviting and informative planning session post I have ever seen in Warbirds. I love it Thank you?

However, I have a problem.

Nooky and I are in the midst of preliminary planning of series four and I seem to have been assigned to create more promotional videos. Editing video and putting all the ingredients together for the next series will eat up most of the time I had hoped to have for CO planning frame 4. I would greatly appreciate someone stepping up and taking this responsibility from me.

As for Nook's, comment about being a series producer (see page 5 in this post series), we are in need of someone to be part of the final series this season. It as yet has no scenario or frame structure. In other words, no producer. We need a producer to develop a scenario and frame structure that can then be divided up and assigned for those who are working this season to get everything together.

Here is this season's production crew. Please give them a thank you when you get a chance.

Spindz: He is the MAN. If you see it, hear it, feel it or whatever when playing Warbirds, he makes it happen.
Nooky Producer, Communications, Planning, Website
Sleepy: Producer, Technical (terrain, weaponry, armaments)
Robert: Aircraft procurement and technical advise
WilBill: Producer, Advertisement, Communication
kacey: Producer, Video, Website, Scoring Design
Muzz: Mapping and Logistical Visual Aids
All the CO volunteers

(none of these people work in a vacuum. They have others who give advice, humble opinions, etc. that are too numerous to mention)

If you decide to become the Producer for series 5, we are all here to help it be successful. Please consider that and also we need a CO for frame 5 of MOB

Yes, available, confirmed.
