Carrick - Glad Henri's wound isn't too bad.....one word.....nurses.
TWK - No apologies needed, real life is just that, real. You'll get back in the saddle when you're able.
Fullofit - Oh no, what a shame. One lucky shot and it just shows you, fortune is fickle. I liked Pyotr. A brave and fearless pilot. До свидания!
"A great deal of an aeroplane could be holed without affecting its ability to fly. Wings and fuselage could be—and often were—pierced in 50 places, missing the occupants by inches (blissfully unaware of how close it had come until they returned to base). Then the sailmaker would carefully cover each hole with a square inch of Irish linen frayed at the edges and with a brushful of dope make our aircraft 'serviceable' again within an hour."
