Sorry, been down with combat fatigue for the last 24 hours.   Reading up now.  :-[

I know how that feels pal! I'm having lots of fun but it is taking some getting used to flying jets against props. I usually do it the other way around. I know how 262 pilots felt now up against Tempests and Mustangs. Great campaign, cheers chaps!

Having speed at your fingertips presents a whole different set of challenges, doesn't it?  

Many years ago, I had coffee with a US Navy Lt. Commander who shotdown a MiG-17 in Vietnam while flying an AD prop job...'by pure reflex'.  He and his wingman were maneuvering at low altitude to avoid two MiGs, when one undershot him very badly on a highspeed firing pass.  The SPAD pilot saw the MiG coming and had pulled-up(not hit brakes or flaps) at the last minute to throw the MiG's aim off, and the MiG 'just popped up right in my gunsight'.  Of course, the MiG got a burst of the SPAD's 20mm right up the tailpipe 'by pure reflex'.  About that time two more ADs jumped into the furball, and both MiG's decided to head for home....one smoking very heavily.  A couple of F4s coming to the rescue confirmed the smoker augered in some miles away.

Speed ain't all it's cracked-up to be.

Eeps!

My word I haven't checked this forum in a while. And there I was complaining that you guys haven't done anything.

Sorry fellas, looks great!
