Tried this tonight with Foz. Didn't go that great. One big problem we had was how the heck do you get to Heinersdorf by going southwest of Britz? Looking at google earth now, I think you mean Zehlendorf. And it also took us a while to work out you start from Tempelhoff airfield, we were looking for another strip somewhere as none of us could read the map place names very well because the map was so zoomed out. Maybe we were on the wrong Berlin map? And as foz was reading out the compass directions I didn't know that by 11 degrees from tempelhoff you meant 110 degrees. I kept flying North lol

A squadron of Hurricanes attempted this tonight on the 360...... and failed miserably.We had to stop almost immediately to ask for direction. Our first issue was the home airfield.... where is it? The only one we could find was slightly south of Berlin. We then got confused with "Britz, and Heinersdorf", Britz being below Berlin and Heinersdorf being above it, (we had to resort to google earth). We ultimately found the target, but only because of the use of google earth. The instructions seem detailed enough, so its clearly a mistake on our part. We just struggled with the headings and airfield. Does anyone have the locations marked on a Berlin map? We will try this again tomorrow night. Cheers fella's. |
Was that another race to post Foz? :lol: I won this time :P
