To be honest, the main reason for my sudden acknowledge of the B-25 is because I've been reading Catch-22 lately. A masterpiece in my own eyes.

Too bad I'm so bad as a bombardier that even Yossarian has greater chances of hitting the targets, despite his ignorance towards the fact if he hits the target or not....

A couple of shots from yesterday:

Schröder cruising along


Kratos fighting P-36s


Kratos evading extremely low...


...and the result can be seen in the chat box


A Hurricane crashlanding after losing an engine to enemy fire


Hunter landing


Hurri pilot making his escape


AI 109s in landing patter. There was a LOT more of them, but I didn't manage to get a good pic. Does anyone btw know what's the cause of those black areas? They always appear on the second sortie of the day(online and offline), and disappear only when a different map is loaded or IL2 is restarted.

Yep that's TS Overlay, and yes iirc it shows text too. I only started using it a few sorties ago, but so far it looks promising.
