I'm always in for a race. I'd love to spend some time rec'ing a Berlin/ Ardennes course as well.

Have ya'll tried finding a spot for a short course with multiple laps? Perhaps a figure 8 course around the Dover dock for some biplane (i153/po2) racing?

Now thats an idea. We could use the Dover harbour section of Winnys course for that. Round the castle, down and round lighthouses in I153s would be cool. I think we found a legitimate use for the 153 at last

I'll let nubz know then He can ram the lighthouses to his heart's content.

Just loved the flights last night! It was cool to see 8 spits lined up before take-off, and fly down the valley and try to find my place in the wing. It wasn't that succesfull though... Crashing with dk down by the radarstation (my own fault, I took a short-cut through the radarmasts there... Sorry dk!) told me that we have to agree on a formation, and try our best to keep it. No wonder the guys of ww2 used weeks of training just to accomplish that... It would be cool to finally make it the hole way to Manston not loosing one plane. And then the deathrace with cannons blasting back! (My God... This game will kill my mind!)

The section afterwards with bombers, both in Dogfight and Strike, where supercool too. Only one thing... I got a bit confused when a couple of 109 opened up on the He-111, and a hurry opened up on my spit. But, summed up: Great fun guys!

It was bit hectic, running away from all the little baddies. It was a shame that most of the group lost the historic flavor of the match.
