Pre-planning and aircrew briefs
How much intel can be disseminated ahead of the mission. I only ask as I have spoken with the CO concerning the time to brief ppl is limited and sometimes confusing "on the fly". Maps, tgt specs, routes in and out plus fighter pick-up points would be useful and more realistic, apart from being slightly more immersive.
The biggest thing that would help this situation would be for ALL fighter and bomber pilots to check in here and see what is being planned no later than Sat nite or Sunday morning... they can even contribute to our efforts... Or the *Squad leaders* to disseminate the info on their own board or email lists. There are way too many that depend on last minute briefs before takeoff.
I believe if you read this thread you will see that most of the basic information needed to make individual squad decisions on is already posted. What is undetermined is the number of bomber pilots that will show, which affects the planning enormously.
Of course you could volunteer to CO a frame as we only have a few of us that are taking our limited time for the planning to make this as fun and realistic as possible.
