Default Floating ME109's

New career. New boat. 1st August 1939 ex Wilhelmshaven.

One hour out of port and we come across two burning objects buzzing round in circles on the surface.
On closer inspection they turn out to be to intact ME109's with pilots still in the cockpit, propellors still thrasing and on fire.

Rather bizarre.

No assistance requested so we departed ASAP.

Thought I'd report in.

Harry

When you save when in rendering range of ships or planes, weird stuff happens like this, or the game crashes sometimes.

A strange phenomena this and one not often seen, but sometimes aircraft spiral down when reaching the limit of their endurance.

Maybe Goering wanted to take control of U-boat as well, but as he failed, he decided to make his own attempt!
