1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted March 2, 2021 1. DDz Quorum Posted March 2, 2021 Well... Took off, headed out. Intercepted three Transport planes after SnowDrop called in for assistance. We shot them down. Headed south to complete patrol, then back North. At the point of egress home, decided to make one more patrol circle. Zenith called bandits from heading towards us, from the north. At that point, White 1 and 2 collided. (Blubear and Zukker) Both got killed. Whilst attacking the 109s, Red 3 (Jabo) suffered loss of control due to compression. Red 1 (FT) got hammered by a head on 109 - on fire, baled out. Red 2 (Wingflyr) suffered black out symptoms, and crash landed right on the frontline. And then he woke up. So, yeah, best forget this one fast! 2 Quote

BluBear Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 A dark day for the 402nd and for me, the curse of promotion strikes again! 1 Quote
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted March 3, 2021 1. DDz Quorum Posted March 3, 2021 No complaints about lack of action this time ! We came across 3 x Ju52 initially and dispatched them. We had heard calls for assistance from 410th which had been answered by 402nd. We managed to shoot down a FW190 A8 in our patrol area quickly followed by a call from 402nd onto a fight with 109 G14s way above us. These boys were determined to put up a fight and managed to “head on” kill 2ndLt Stella Artois from long range. Major Payne-Less was also damaged and broke off heading for Aachen airfield pursued by a nasty Nazi with a flea up his arse. Thankfully after scoring a few more hits on Maj PL aircraft he was forced to break off by Flt O John Johnson and Capt Fenton Rea. At the insistance of Major PL this particular 109 was destroyed as many times as possible ! Safe recovery was made at Aachen. Capt Rea and Flt O Johnson returned to home base. (Grateful for the assistance chaps !) We anticipate a swift replacement for Stella, she was very popular and leaves big court shoes to fill. Edit: we also managed to destroy a few ground targets, but in all the excitement I had clean forgotten, talk about immersion! OUT.. 1 Quote

wingflyr Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 Yes. Saw that credit LOL, I knew as you were coming through the gate there would be a stir_up. As one gentleman to another old boy in fairness of war, lets put this aside, find a hole out of this bloody place and I will buy you the biggest round of beer in town. 3 Quote
