Wow! What a mission that number 5 turned out to be!

We had a highly successful and enjoyable mission tonight, with great realism and immersion.
We spawned at Biggin Hill, formed and climbed South. Once at angels 10, we turned North and reached operating altitude of angels 15 aiming to team up with 401sqn near Biggin Hill.
Hearing reports of bombers heading for Eastchurch, we flew to Maidstone with 401sqn climbing behind us to angels 18.
Radar reported low contacts behind us near Kenley, so we dived West, leaving 401 to continue its patrol over Maidstone, and saw bombers above us once we reached angels 6 near Kenley, also observing bombed hangars.
We chased the 5 Ju88s SSE and had trouble catching them. While following we saw a large formation of aircraft crossing from our 7 to 5 o'clock heading West. Eventually we did catch up and we believe we downed them all.
Doing this we got a little split-up and decided to form at Beachy Head.
Unfortunately, I was engaged by a 109 before others could find me and shot down.
Rumba and Feckit returned and landed at Eastchurch, though Feckit lost his life by crashing into a building.
Springer was now totally separated, but landed with the lately arrived Dutch at Biggin Hill.

Well done chaps, a good show. Apologies for the TS mixup, I suspect one of us forgot to ask for it to be setup. Despite that, I think we coordinated quite well.

[EDIT] For those not involved, we were flying 100 octane Hurricane 1s.

64 spawned in at Kenley, where we formed up before heading north to london to meet 501.
After acquiring visual and confirmation of 501 we headed east towards the Manston area, where we got ourselves a nice little fight with 2 109s, who decided to make a run for it ( yeah run ya bloody hun, ruuuuuun ).
We then headed towards Rye, where 401 was reportedly under attack. Encountered at least another 2 109s, who again ran away ( beware the might of 64! ). We then landed at Littlestone as we were bingo on fuel.

Would be a good time to mention the action from 501. We met 64 over central London at angels 12 and headed east still climbing. 2 109's came fast past our formation but for some reason didn't seem to engage, 501 split in 2 at the pass. 64 Picked them up and started fighting then, we said we'd get out since 109's and Hurricanes don't mix well. We reformed and headed south hoping for action, everyone else seemed to have it but us, so we descended to angels 12 in a shallow dive to Hastings. There we spotted a group of Dorniers running home off the coast, they were light from dropping their bombs already but in a single pass 501 sent them all into the drink. As their group broke apart so did we, 1 launcher crash then some 109's turned up, I was S/D just off Hastings but B/O fine (I'll be in a new crate for next weekend!), Hollywood and Valec both got home fine with light damage but gave what they got by claiming a 109 damaged on the chat bar. Drake was S/D over Hastings but B/O ok.

A very good mission, more of the same please.
