All installed smoothly

First Mission Report

I took off successfully and attempted to join up with the lead flight of three Spitfires.

I temporarily lost sight of them and turned to join my flight. At this manoeuvre of mine, the two Spitfires in my flight collided in mid air.

Now on my own, I saw a number of Ju 88s about two miles ahead. I closed fast and attacked the Ju 88 to the left of the formation. I scored a number of hits and as I flew over this aircraft, I noticed that it was a Blenheim.

I was successfully vectored by the Tower to our airfield and landed without event. However, on joining the taxi way my port wheel struck a very large mole hill and the a/c overturned.

My 15 minute sortie resulted in the loss of five RAF aircraft. Am I an Ace?

Nice AAR MB_Avro, I see we are the same style e-pilots haha
Keep your section ai-pilots on safe distance using Formation/Wide (or what is called). thats what I usually do.

Bongo, easiest should be to drop them all in "\missions\Single" folder as that is the default viewed when going singleplayer in-game, but folks might want to keep that one tidy and clean.

Otherwise start clicking on "O.." (that circle at top) which will put you in the parent folder and so on.


Edit:
The horrid AI tend to fly pretty hard so don't hesitate to go full boost cut off to keep up with them.
I usually climb max 2000 ft/s to keep a good horizontal position and speed so I don't loose them (make that +6 boost and 2600 rpm with 50% radiator).
(them seem to climb at 3000 ft/s plus at times, no way in hekklafjell I can keep up with that at +6 boost)

I'm a dummie. It all works, now.

My Combat Report as above has similarities with real life incidents in 1939/1940.

The 'Battle of Barking Creek'

http://www.northwealdairfieldhistory...-barking-creek

The first aircraft to be shot down by a Spitfire was a Hurricane


It's a reflection of the realism of this simulator.
