Ok, I know the old saying "Never interrupt you're enemy when he's making a mistake" but in the interest of making things more challenging I’m going to offer some advice to the Red pilots flying on ATAG.
If you want to complete objectives you need to get together with your bomber pilots and tell them that they have to fly where the fighters will have the best chance of protecting them. I am constantly finding Blenheim pilots flying on the wave tops heading directly from their bases in a straight line towards their targets. Climb! Get those Blennys up to 3-4000m, cross the channel a long way to the East or West, and descend behind enemy lines.
I’ve flown a lot of bomber missions on ATAG, and I can count on one hand how many times I’ve been attacked by an enemy fighter before dropping my payload. Sure, my He-111 missions might take 45 to 75 minutes from takeoff to landing, but patience is a virtue. Don’t rush it guys, flying through the "trapezoid of terror"
that goes from Littlestone to Ramsgate, across to Dunkirk then Wissant, in a bomber is sheer madness.
Time may be of the essence, but 3 unsuccessful missions straight through the belly of the beast is still worth less than one successful mission flying around all the action.
