When i got in, there were three Ju88's around the field. I took off and got a crash...A real one, there were Ju-88 parts all over the field.

Tried again. It work that time.

After take off i circled the field with Borris and other players for what seemed like an hour until more people joined and some got the patch installed. No CTD's with all this Ju-8's flying around (and buzzing everyone

When we formed to go to the target we got bounced over Traimcourt by a bloody spit. Two people had to get new planes, so the rest of us kept circling.
In the end we gotseven or eight Ju-88's in formation and went to the target in G7. There may have been more than eight but I know i had six in front of me at some point. The target went down like a 5$ hooker from all that awesomeness.... and TNT.

For some funny reason we decide to circle around, above the target, to form up again for the second part of the trip to Ramsgate....Very bad idea. All the spits available in England were thrown at us. There was a sea of planes shooting at each other. Spits and Hurricanes attacking us, our escorts shooting them. All in all an epic fight.
I was unfortunate enough to pick up one of the ugly Spit 2's that chopped my wing off in the second pass.

Since i was in the area I joined the plane flown by Bliss as a gunner, just in time to notice his CTD. His game just crashed and left me inside the spinning plane on the way to my second death.:#
I immediately rejoined Doc"s bomber as a nose gunner, but he removed his nose gun to save weight, so I worked as butler, bringing him beers from the cooler in the back seats. It all worked out good. Doc dropped a big load of bombs right on target and we left it in flames. He then decided to land on Ramsgate just to take a pi$$ in England to complete the humiliation.
I had to log off after that. Great fun.
From the bombers and escorts flying together, only Bliss had a CTD during that huge fight over G7 targets. I'd say the online CTD's related to bombers flying formation are fixed. I did get some crashes offline tho. In FMB, QMB and even in the arming screen.
