Hi Colin,
It was quite the opposite for us from my point of view, but we still
enjoyed it. The most disastrous thing happened when 3 of us were shot down
by a single bandit in one pass. It was a cumulation of all errors we could
do when reforming after shooting down Klem's oppressor. Or maybe it was our
bad luck and good luck of this guy. If I were him I would buy a lottery
ticket.
Anyway it was a pleasure to fly with a squad strength yesterday.
Dutch is progressing in learning good habits quite well. He already knows
how to not be a ground magnet in a Tempest.
Cheers,
Cina

How did you guys get on?
Lots of targets :)
Had some good fights, but the blues were doing what the reds do flying
below cloud lol.
Only once did we bump into higher contacts and even then they blew it, the
sandwich got them good style, with one shot down and the other ran
away(ITAF sqn) :). Patrolling at 20,000ft or higher ftw :).
Even though the blues had more numbers their standard was not high
considering there were a few squads flying. The best for the blues was the
110 rear gunner and the amazing angle they can shoot from lol.
The only down side was a D9 that Witch has wrecked it a zoom climb fell
into him, and my hotas, keyboard, went walk about and I could not control
the aircraft so it went straight in, first time that has happened.
We bagged about 8 in total, which was quite good considering we had been
flying the F/18 all week :).
Hope you are teaching Dutch, good habits now he is back :).
