Lying in wait....
 
Just started a new career out of Pearl in a Gato, using one of Foo's Black Skins, for some reason I feel the need to go retro lately :yep:

I am on a Photo Recon Mission inside Tsursaki Harbor ( lucky me :oops: )I'll keep you posted. By the way, just before this pic :roll: I was bombed, I was not deep enough, as you can see I don't have much room to go deeper. I'll keep you posted with pics on how I do.

Using the latest Trigger and a bunch of other stuff.

When I'm in those missions I go right down til the bottom of the model is brushing through the rocks. You still have room left even doing that.

Took your advice Pv after getting bombed again.

Have a little room to maneuver, but not much :o
Keep you folks posted.

Edit: Still getting bombed, I love this stuff, no more pussy footing around harbors.

Good idea. You can still go lower... another 30-50 ft at least!

Wait for night and no problem with bombs. The AC are spotting your hull in the shallow water.

Success. Trigger really does make a difference in these missions, nice touch with planes seeing you better in shallow water.

Blip in the power :yep: I saved about half way to Tsursaki Harbor, so I will start again from there.
Will keep you posted. What's new with you simon?

Looking forward to the Christmas break. Will have most of next week off. My wife teaches so she will have a couple of weeks off. The three boys are pretty pumped for the big day, should be a great one.

Lawschool, how far are you into it. Inlaws, you learn to love them :doh:... I guess :hmm:

just finishing my second year of classes, then off to intern in the spring. I am very fortunate that the inlaws are all really great, so it will be a nice break spending time with them. It must be nice to have kids old enough to understand christmas and young enough to still be excited by it. My wife just started teaching 8th grade science and I know that she is ready for the break aswell.
We got hit hard by the storms of the last week but fortunately didn't lose power, I cannot imagine what it must have been like to be caught in those ice storms than struck recently.

8th grade science, mine teaches resource, grade 3 French immersion. We lost our power back a few weeks ago, heavy wet snow. It was out about a day. We have a wood stove here so we just stayed down in the basement.

You'll make a good lawyer by the way, what component or aspect do you want to pursue.
