Jabo, just to make sure we are on the same page.

The IJ CV strike at the end of the frame was past time. You called 2 min. left and they came in 4 min. later. Our CAP was RTB when they got there so no way to defend the CV's. It needs to be ruled too late.

Also, I guess I don't really care, but if we get into a point contest in the end, (3) B29 kills should be stricken from the record and one pilot loss should be removed. We should have no B29 pilot losses. All RTB'd. I lost a B29 due to no flaps as did two others for sure (maybe more). Also, Gofly or Nofly (names are way too close) had to bail because they couldn't land without flaps. But this isn't a big deal. the CV is.

I have a report that the B29 flaps work you just cannot deploy them at less than 160 mph. See Dawgers main post on the forum for the B29.

Actually the torp attack came in at T+161 which I posted and no torps were in the water before then. So it does not count. It was a very close run thing so I wouldnt be too upset about it. The IJ tried their hardest to get their in time they were just off on the angle a bit or they would have made it.

With the entire DRs a no show it was a very excellent effort getting the few bombers onto target.
