Oh, and Arclight this is for you:



I must get level bombing practicing again, I like the sound of some nice night bombing missions like last night.

Pics or it didn't happen!

Anyway, if you're flying through trees then you're doing something pretty wrong anyway

Well, trees and dockside cranes, eh Hunter?

Was quite fun, wasn't it? I was quite annoyed that I suddenly went slideshow on the way back, still not sure what caused that, I can only assume it was due to the number of planes 'Nicht Landen' at our airbases. At least you guys managed to land alright. Well, except Raptor who landed on the moon.

Since Raptor was dropped out just before you got the slide show I guess your server doesn't like Timed out players and caused a strain on your PC.

I was just looking through the Halifax page on wikipedia and realised that I've seen a Halifax at the RAF Museum.


Tail end Charlie


Halifax Mk II serial W 1048, displayed in as recovered condition from Lake Hoklingen in Norway where it belly landed after being hit by flak on its way back from a raid on the Tirpitz. Bad lighting due to old camera.

Here be a tip for both bombsights:

Keep adjusting the speed all the way until the drop. Nuts to TAS indicator and calculations.

Excuse me for making a double post...

I was fooling around with Photoshop in my laptop and I want to try to make the LoLwaffles title to be more awesome. There you go!



Let me know what you think of.

I'd say redo it with transparent background. (so the scratches and stuff are transparent in text too):



Maybe a sort of one-sided outline too to give more depth?


Just my opinion. Is nice.
