The mission on Canterbury last saturday l think learned us that to get the bombers to be at bit more central in the battle, I want to engage ships as targets and do it in strike-mode. This way the fighters are given an incitament to down them before they get to do theire bombruns.

The general idea is to set it to 1943 and have the german side to scramble He-111 and Stukas at the airfield at Catania. The top-cover will be G2's and F4's, and maybe a cpl of 202's from the Italian airforce.

The allied forces will defend the ships with the aid of P51's and Spits. The thought strategy will be for the mustangs to engage enemy fighters, and the spits to engage enemy bombers.

What do you guys think? Anyone interested in doing a mission like that? If it is, I'll put up a thread with the name "Operation Husky" and follow MACs idea of how to brief it from there...

MC202 pilot reporting ! Ready to take off! An italian plane at last ehehe
