<S> Allies!
It was nothing but a joy to cooperate with you all last night. It was pure teamwork 8-) .

The RCAF/AE/8th did a good job of working together and took out both the radar at 66, bridges etc. Sorry that you were put away from the action most of the frame as the Jerries decided to focus all their forces in the north. I hope you got some nice action in the end though and great initiatives intercepting bombers on our ships and defending 44 from the last minute attackers.

I thought we'd be doing good if we could close T38 and bring some ground vehicles down, but the KoN/69th and 352nd closed three times as many fields and the buffer was filled with destroyed m16's throughout the night. This should net us quite a bunch of momentum in the score. The call by Hawk to close F58 was a smart one and put a thorn in the enemies plans.

Having the 4th FG as a flexible support-hammer was a tactic that seemed to work well. The 4th was often able to be at the right place at the right time on this map to help tip the balance. Bombr-'s intuition to have us guard L44 on our second sortie, in case of an enemy repeat attack, had us just reach the field and move some 5-10 miles east of L44 when we spotted the whole Axis armada moving in to close the field with their Jerries as a front sweep. Thanks all FG's for being flexible and getting to L44 just in time to save it and kick the enemy out of our territory.

The 352nd FG was all over the map and kicking buttocks all night long, ranging from GV's to buffs to Jerries and even taking it to them with support of our Spitfires and Hurricanes at L56 at the end of frame. Thanks Dewolf, Hawk, Rcflys, Swede-, Beaver, Swanee, Muzz, Ozzone, Bombr- etc for great communication, flexibility and own initiative throughout the night. I believe we gained a sound lead in this series with this frame :) .


Cheers!

All that could be said is it was a great plan, nice fluid movements, good job by all taking advantage of opportune moments. Great pursuit by the 352nd in chasing down the enemy buffs after the last raids.
Your planning and ability to take advantage was magnificent.

Well played. Good Frame. Still not happy about the paper Hurrrie wing falling off below 400 IAS. Cheers

It's not the speed.. It's the G's...

I said same thing fr1 when my wing came off....however ACM review showed I pulled ~12 g when it broke.

New g load visual/ audible clues should be in next update to help prevent over g of the airframe.

yes Sir Robert good frame for us we started from F37 since 52 was closed. we provided High cover for RCAF as they took our the dars. we then moved back to the NE and refueled at 24.. upon landing i seen in the buffer when the ships were sunk and Ozzone on CGI spotted them ..we rolled ASAP taking up a angle to cut them off .. we was able to cut off 1 ju-88.. dispatching him .. we regrouped and headed top 44 to cover Hawk and his buffs.. running low on fuel we rtb'd.. last hop for the night we headed to 56 hooking up with the 352nd there ..dispatching 1 109 and several PC's but losing 1 spit there .. we moved west regrouped and moved N to 44 area.. Fuss-j was our CGI and directed up to in coming buffs. and a few fighter low with them.. the group attacked the buffs while ozzone and I went for the fighters dispatched a 109. again several PC's i was so happy we saved 44..
was fun in the end most of the night moving from the South to the North but again Fun glad we could assist
