YAY for me (a forum thanks)

[King Jareth]

I've just had my favourite run through of Red skies over Dover to date.
I managed to have some cracking dogfights with 109 including saving a few of my guys bacon along the way by breaking up some rather unfair 3 on 1 furballs (oh damaged engine 109, why do you try that rolling dive->pull up just over the treetops manoeuvre?)

Then I took out a few 111's and on to the stukkas. First one went down easy but the second put up a fight resulting in an almost treetop level dogfight right over the rooftops of Dover...which I won!
I imagine if they'd put animated civilians into the game the boys in short trousers would have been cheering for me so I did a celebratory victory roll for em.

But what theres more I even landed.....kinda. The undercarage broke but the plane stopped on the runway and didnt explode so I rekon I couldve walked away from it.
Maybe crawled.

And it was all on Realistic (I'm not good enough for Sim yet but getting there).

So why all the blowing my own trumpet you ask? Well it was in no small part to hints and tips I've got from you forum guys so thank you all.
Have a round of applause forum people.

just because were not all flying the same mission together (not in the same game, but individually), doesnt mean we cant help

its a team effort to help each other through and offer whats tips and assistance they can.

Glad you had a great run on it.

I've only played the game on sim mode (jumped straight into the thick of it) and to date i've only crashed a couple of times on that mission, playing it quite well....shot down many HE111's and 109's....... but not a single JU87!!!! not one have i shot down yet i dont think.

Love it though, great game.

That's good up until you run into each other on multiplayer.

My top score on Dover was 4237. I was extremely pleased with myself.

As tough as it can be at times, I only fly in sim mode.

We'll see if the full game can break me into playing realistic on some of the harder missions.

Kudos Jareth nicely done Glad you're on our side

Good for you! I played realistic for quite a while then found it to be a very smooth transition into sim mode. I think I might stay in sim most of the time now (it's a lot more fun I found), and at the beginning I thought I'd be on realistic through the whole campaign. So you'll get there eventually.
