Carrick - Good job by Henri there dispatching that Pfalz. Let's hope the probable becomes a confirmation.

TWK - A tete a tete with a french girl for Shutzmeier eh. The dirty dachshund. Then a lie in with cards and beer. Sounds like he needs to get back in the air sharpish.

NR - Bad weather all round it seems. Another airfield attack for Cunningham, he needs to transfer to a Brisfit squadron at least he can do some proper damage with that bird. Then an escort mission which went ok. A quiet day though in truth and no losses, which is good after what's happened recently.

Fullofit - A quiet day for Pyotr too, that's a rarity. He's nudging his score up very nicely indeed. They definitely slow you down when you have bombs on board. It takes longer to get into formation. Hard to say if they're throwing the aircraft off in turns though.


"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."
