Painless

Noted Tom. Reporting for duty.

Thank you very much for sorting it out Arjen! Yet more Karma points coming your way. If you carry on like this, you and Tom will be reincarnated as a well hung princes who can fly !

Rgr that Col, have fun mate !

Interesting read chaps, it seems to me that the only “fair” way to artificially balance things retrospectively is to award another 5 confirmed air kills to any pilot of Major rank or above and call it quits 😉👍🏻

Seems we had a bit of a milk run 485th. Still worth noting that we all managed to land (very nicely indeed), all aircraft and pilots undamaged. Congrats to 402nd, looked like the you boys caught the Bosh with their trousers down this time !

Reporting for duty skipper. 😎

Welcome Kimo, great to see you still have a pulse sir ! 😁 We would be glad to have you join our jolly band of brothers. Looking forward to speaking on TS. There is plenty of help available here to get yourself set up and familiar with the newer flight sims GBS and/or DCS. We also have a few of the guys flying IL2 1946 on occasion. Check out the calendar for flying times.

Now that does sound interesting......

Hope he is OK Tom ! ?

Dam shame you getting pinged by AAA Dave, I’m sure those stutters didn’t help ! Also the loss of Pook was regrettable. Seems that locker is jinxed so we have removed it from the locker room and blown it up. Expecting two top notch replacements ASAP. Other than that bloody good show 485th, good team work and comms. Very impressive improvisation concerning our initial attack plan for the combat area AAA and ground targets. BRAVO chaps ! Side note: have removed (1) from new skins Capt Siddley.

Reporting for duty with clean undergrollies ready for tomorrow skipper....

Thanks for putting so much thought into this so that we can have a large selection of the latest dresses Arjen ! Much appreciated 👍🏻😉

There you go Reggie, hope everyone reads that as it has definitely happened before both on takeoff and landing 😉👍🏻

485th, fine work chaps ! Sad to loose the new lad but we made Jerry pay for it ! Capt Hawker Siddley will be back with us as soon as he has been de briefed 😳 We have set a standard of excellence so far, no reason to change, take pride in that and well done ! A big thanks to 402nd for keeping those FWs off of our backs !

“Strawberry Bitch” reporting for duty skipper.

Shame you had no bombs Arthur ! 🤣😂

Same here Reggie, I press “H” and it all disappears including the HUD then I press “J” which brings only triangle and square icons back. Both are assigned as toggle functions. 👍🏻😁

Thanks Chris, that was an interesting interview.

Could not agree more Tom !

That was hard to fecking read !

There will be thousands of people like ourselves swallowing a lump and hoping for the best as we speak Chris ☹️

Thanks BB........ From the forum chat...... “I guess it’s all about the money then ?” Do you think !?

Bloody hell, dam and bollocks ! What about Goodwood (RAF Westhampnett)chaps ? They host the Goodwood Circuit Revival event and the Festival of Speed so we know the numbers can be catered for regarding infrastructure. Also the airfield is regularly used by warbirds all year round ? Lord March is a good egg and an aviation buff so if the numbers add up I wonder ? No aircraft museums though ☹️ Enquiry has nothing to do with it being only 20 minutes drive from my place 🤓

Hey Reggie, I think most use just the small triangle icons for aircraft in the air both friendly and enemy. Usually red for enemy and blue for friendly irrespective of which side you fly on. No names shown, no distance shown. The colour only becomes clear as the distance reduces. For ground targets most see a small square icon, again coloured accordingly. You are right, it would put you at a huge disadvantage to see no icons at all especially in a fur ball or for ground targets so please feel free to use whatever you are comfortable with.

Excellent news ! I’m sure after such a traumatic sortie, footing the bill for tonight’s 🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🍹🍹🍹🍹🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷 in honour of 1Lt Denny Pooka will be no problem by comparison, good man ! Three cheers for Fryer... hic hic hurrah !...... hic hic...
