The most epic dogfight I've ever been in, alright :up:

Anyway, here's some pics from the first mission:

Starboard engine smoking, Hunter rakes it a bit more and then moves aside to let Oberon attack the port engine

The result, the Ju-88s crew bail out after Oberon sets the port engine on fire whilst Hunter watches on, Task Force chases the stricken 88 down to the ground.

It's only a flesh wound!

In the second mission I was a bit too busy dogfighting that 109 to take many screenshots, but I got one of my first kill which was a co-op with I presume an AI Fokker which set the 110s right engine smoking and then disappeared to let me finish the kill.

Then came the 109. Originally it was going to be Schroeders kill, we were going to surprise the 109 when it came back for its third strafing run on the airbase but the 109 decided that I was a better target. Schroeder dived on it as it attacked me but the 109 climbed away. Then a 110 appeared out of nowhere and went after Schroeder so that left me with the 109. Damn that guy was pretty good for an AI, he nearly had me when he got behind me that last time, my cockpit got riddled with bullet holes and my instruments smashed up, but then he curved away and around and came in for a head on pass and I got him. :up: Damn, that felt good.

Of course, I then sodded it up on landing but hey, you can't have it all ways, can you? :har:

Hunter provided the soundtrack for the epic dogfight with:

Yep. did good with that 109...:up:

Nice shots there Oberon its what I've come to expect from you AARs:yeah:. I also noticed the Voor de Kaas on the side(Hunters?) plane, and I have no understanding of Dutch but I bet it means "For the Cheese!".
Oh we now have state approval to start demoing the first floor at work and that means I can't fly on Friday:nope::damn:. Oh well work before pleasure unless your in the porn industry where your work is pleasure!

NOOOO!!!! so much for the americans haveing air supriority...:shifty: Poo...

Im almost sure Voor de Kaas means for the cheese. (BTW, thats Oberon.)

Darnit, and here's me ready for action after LOST. :damn: :haha:

sniff, sniff... theres always monday....:rotfl2:

Sorry lads, no flights till further notice because since the last DCG break down I just lost it...also my joy in IL2.

HunterICX

Damn...oh well...we've had some good times. :shucks:

Was good flying with you all. :salute:

You mean the might of the Lolwaffles has been brought down just like that?!

:wah:

The DCG programmer was definitely an even worse artist than Raptor1! :nope:

Maybe I can try to tune up some of Golfplatz's campaigns. I think adding some serious AI to them should already make them much better....:hmm2:

It's worth a shot, although I was quite enjoying the Holland campaign.
It would be a shame for it to all end this way, but I understand Hunters frustration. :yep:
