Russ, Thankyou for the time and effort you spent developing tonight's mission. It was different, very enjoyable, and challenging. It's infinitely variable, and I can see it standing the test of time. I've been on the squadron for 12 months now, and your mission lead to the most involved brief and debrief I've experienced.

Thankyou also to Will, Ade, and Paul, for all the BLUE fight planning and preparation. Without it, I would not have survived.

Yea, it was a very good mission, thanks Russ.

I had my stupid head on last night, when I saw that 3 out of the 4 AAA sites were intact, I still went in and attacked, and paid the ultimate price. Luckily Geoff saw what stupidity can lead too, and broke off his attack immediately, he would of made it back home if the server hadn't crashed.

Ahh well lesson learned, I wont do that again. Look forward to flying this mission again. Knowing you will be going against a Human CAP really adds an extra dimension to the anticipation level.

Thanks Will & Ade for a great and in depth briefing, and route planning.

Well done Reds, for getting a few victories against insurmountable odds.

I agree. A lot of fun. Knowing it was human flying against us gave it a certain “edgy” feel. Thank you Geoff for the idea and to Will for your excellent planning and also Ade for “righting my wrongs” and tweaking. We should definitely make a date to fly again. ASAP too. Well done all.

I think we know someone else with similar flying skills Muttley!

Unfortunately, stuff like that can be a little beyond our control, but if there are bugs, I am sure the author will be taking notice.
