Oh crap! This is a bad day. Sorry to hear you'll not be able to finish his story. Maybe it's for the better. I wouldn't be able to follow the game.
Canadian, eh? Me thinks he'll survive the war and you'll run out of stories to tell about him.

Oh good, I was getting worried that the replacements aren't getting trained fast enough.

Welp,poor Albert bought it after a wing failure. One strategically placed burst of rounds from an over-zealous wingman weakened it and it snapped during a low-G turn as I headed for home.

Ill be back at it tomorrow with Benjamin Kincaid. Time to think up a good story arc that he might be able to live through.

Carrick58, I don't have any of Dudley's latest info in the status report. Don't think of this as a nag, but as a gentle exhortation from a friend. biggrin

Well today was a day to forget about !!

Ohh mannnnn, did I make bad decisions.
Normal easy flight to the lines and back. I thought we’d take bombs along and bugger up someone’s day. Well we went a looking for targets when 5 Alb DII’s turned up. First pass and my formation was ruined. We scattered each for himself. I saw one Be12 with 2 on his tail and another one limping into Hunland. The forth man I never saw. I had 2 on my tail and then 2 Halbs joined in too… oh what fun. I gave up trying to help my friends in any way and put my nose down and ran, yes ran, for friendly positions for mg support.

In the end I picked off a lone Alb that was dumb enough to follow me way deep over then lines. So never take this Sim for granted boys…yeh might just get your butt handed to ya.




make mistakes and learn from them

People must be crackers, My fellow wnd tell me that The N-10 was long ago Obsolete and that the N-11 BeBe was pulled from the From Line back in Dec 1916. My wing and Sqn must be at the end of the Supply line our someone doesn't like us.


Carrick, I'm pretty sure you're right about the supply lines. Are you sure you're not playing in Jan. of 1916?
Love the new address, btw.

yep

Return to duty in the game is 1 Feb 1917. Bummer being at the end of supply lines. sigh
It also read that I would be flying the N-11 BeBe. The one type pulled out to trainers in Dec 1916.
