P-11 Christmas dogfight?

Post by :FI:Falcon » Sun Nov 29, 2009 6:57 pm

For many years the FI had a P-11 dogfight session near Christmas, but it hasn't happened in the last two years.

Just putting in a reminder of the good ol' days passed. Oh, Sneaky's TB-3 shoot-em-ups were great too.

Any interest for this year?

Not necessarily Christmas. We usually did it on the Sunday nearest. This year it would be the 20th or 27th.

Jeez, I prolly can't make X-mas day. I'll be building bikes, doll houses, racetracks, RC cars and helicopters and I think there's even a first bike on the agenda. Then I'll need to read all the instructions for the new Transformer, Barbie and Hannah Montana board and computer games

... and then I'll start on all the kids toys.

;)

Ah nuts the 20th isn't good for me, I'm away for our annual Sacktime winter crazyness. Take the family bush bashing and cutting down another Christmas tree, I always end up dragging through the bush for 100m to the old Ski doo, and other stuff. But I will be back 27th.

Either way someone record it with IDs on so I can watch it later!

25th or 26th might be difficult - have to do "family stuff" and you guys don't count in my wifes eyes - sorry :lol:

20th or 27th sounds good though - I always liked a TB3 dogfight myself - done as a "coop" so we man the gunner stations. Maybe we could do P11's and TB3's - I'll happily write a TB3 coop mission for us: 2 v 2, airstart, etc should give us 16 seats

The 20th or 27th for me too. I'm easy.

If you want a special skin so your enemies will run in fear, check out this old thread, (page 3), from the Skinner's forum.
