It's a bit of an awkward time for me but I could give that a try.

Holding out hope that Legends might make a return, but I'd say it's unlikely as usually announced by now and there's still the question of location. Unfortunately, Sywell announced yesterday that this year's show will remain a one off and will stand as a legacy of the late Richard Grace, which is totally understandable as he was the driving force. But, it's also a damn shame, it was a fantastic show and a worthy successor to Legends. So, realistically that leaves us with the two main players, RIAT and one of the Duxford shows.

Now with added F-4 option, not gonna lie, bit more difficult, as you trying to look out the front and between your legs at the same time! Two F-4E spawns available same as the F-16 ones, TACAN and ILS already set at spawn in, mission attached, f-16 ILS landing.miz

Congratulations gents Despite strong air cover resulting in some loses we managed to destroy a key bridge and harass the axis tanks. Due to our sterling efforts the axis have lost all control of North Africa and have retreated to italy or surrendered. Our next mission is of vital importance to the war effort. The boffins have stated that if we can disrupt oil supplies to the axis forces this will cripple their war effort. Due to us controlling Libya we are able to launch an attack on oil fields in Romania, our target is Poliesti , a major oil refinery . Due to air cover we will attack on the deck with A 20s. escort will be P-51 b Operation Tidal Wave was an air attack by bombers of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) based in Libya on nine oil refineries around Ploiești, Romania, on 1 August 1943, during World War II. It was a strategic bombing mission and part of the "oil campaign" to deny petroleum-based fuel to the Axis powers. This operation was one of the costliest for the USAAF in the European Theater, with 53 aircraft and 500 aircrewmen lost. It was proportionally the most costly major Allied air raid of the war, and its date was later referred to as "Black Sunday". Five Medals of Honor and 56 Distinguished Service Crosses, along with numerous other awards, went to Operation Tidal Wave crew members. A 1999 research report prepared for the Air War College at Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama concluded that the bombing campaign in Ploiești was "one of the bloodiest and most heroic missions of all time".[

This afternoon I will be adding new functionality to our new Persian Gulf server mission that will enable us to set the fog setting IN MISSION via the radio comms menu.

Here's a little challenge for all of you Viper pilots, a blind landing approach using the ILS to land, utilising the new fog settings in the mission builder for a low visibility landing, mission attached. 2 F-16's are available, one 50 miles out to use TACAN to get on the correct radial before switching to ILS, and the second one 10 miles out on radial and correct height for a straight in ILS approach. If using the second spawn, best to start in active pause and enter the correct Tacan and ILS frequency into the DED before unpausing. Its a relief when the runway comes into view!!! f-16 ILS landing.miz

The 352nd are proposing to start a continuous online campaign in the new year where every action will effect the front line, supplies etc, they are canvassing support from others but if we get enough numbers then they will consider running it on Sunday s at our regular time, so if anyone is interested in joining, either flying or tanking please let me know here and I will let deacon know

@Perfesser - excellent - we just now need to get you synced up with us to play on a thursday - a new exciting syria campaign will be starting soon (hopefully) lots of work for helicopters to do as well

Then I made them into uploadable movies to YT. Enjoy! I often dig through the gigs of stuff I've saved to hear our voices and Camaraderie. I've been aiming to do this for years, and I might as well do it now and get rid of the large files off my PC. Besides, I'll probably never get that involved in this game again. I had broken my ankle that fall and was off work for 8 weeks, so I had time to brush up on things. This next one is just me finding a flight of Beufighters online while piloting a 109 and after watching it a few times I think Kira was actually in one, thus the reason we were quiet I think.
