I have been "sight seeing" by flying around from airfield to airfield in different aircraft just to see what there is to see and how the different aircraft fly. As I drew near the Front lines around Armentieres at about 2500 ft, I had a thought: "are there any EA around in Free Flight"? Just to be safe, I headed towards La Gorgue airfield and landed there after checking out a nearby observation balloon.

I had labels on Activity which, in a campaign mission, shows EA before I can see them with label on Identify. I did not specify EA when I start Free Flight and have not seen any yet. Can I assume there are no EA unless I ask for them when I start the Free Flight mission?

I would hate to get shot at while admiring the scenery. biggrin

You're good to go without running into EA in 'free flight'.
Enemy ground fire and flak can take you out.

Good idea to avoid the Front lines then eek

I was busy keeping an ear on the sound of the engine and I only thought about EA. Thanks for the reminder thumbsup
