Here is what I am thinking. This is just for discussions.
Squad Basing:
4th – 3 Steps - F89
23rd – 2 Steps – F103 (Backup basing F105)
475th – 2 Steps – F92 (Backup basing F91)
AE – 1 Step – F93 (Backup basing F91)
100th – 1 Step – F88 (backup basing F91)
NS – 1 Step – F108 (start) -> F91 (mid frame) -> F91 (end) (or F108 if too many bases closed) – B25C
Fighters:
NW Squads
4th, 475th, AE and 100th – Pick rides.
At T+0, ALL fighters lift heavy and drop on 77. Drop and run south west. This should throw 30 or so bombs at F77.
After that, I want the 4th and 475th to cover the port like last frame and AE and the 100th to head SE to cover the 4,1 – 5,1 – 4,2 – 5,2 grids. I expect heavy AI / Knights to hit F103/105 area and AI to hit 94.
Coordinate with the 23rd if they or you need help. As long as 103 and 105 stay open, you can refuel at F105 if running low on gas.
Please provide someone on DAR, I will hopefully fly (since we have so few strike pilots).
As possible, NW squads can engage F77 to close it if the opportunity arises.
SE Squads
23rd – Pick Rides.
You guys are going to need to cover grids 6,0 - 6,1 - 7,0 - 7,1. I would expect to see the Knights and UMM to show up there sooner or later as well as the AI attackers.
IF any of you decide to use the P39 and if things get slow, feel free to attack static ships at 83, 70 or 69 (there are 2 at each) or look for the shipping at 4,4. All of these areas are on AX DAR so you need to stay low or don’t go there.
Buff Mission:
F67 and F83

Thoughts are greatly appreciated!
