Any of the SBD guys who flew the missions and dropped bombs gets credit for sinking the ships, as it takes more than one to sink a ship other than the cargo ones.

Medals are on a bribe basis only 8) .( PM for the rates)

Stats are up for Sun 27th coops, let me know if theres if you spot a mistake in them.
Good flying from a few guys, comms were a lot better.

Heres an idea for the fighters and possibly the bombers........ when heading to the target area, nominate a heading and location(egress point?) away from the target area so folk can form up and give mutual support when RTBing.

On a similar point, if your being attacked and need assistance, all you have to do is head to the egress point letting folk know your altitude, location and heading and hope for the best.

Any and all ideas for improving our lot on Sunday are more than welcome, feel free to add your tuppence-worth.

Great fun yesterday, especially the dive bombing raid. Sorry I had to leave early...had a massive hang over that would not allow me to eat anything all day, so when I finally got hungry, it had to be done.

Looking forward to some more of this as well next weekend. Do we know how many more missions are left in this campaign?

It was a blast, I must say. had a great time, though had to bail out twice , but the third time landed with no prob. Gotta work on my accuracy, I was working on 3 Vals and none of them got killed by me :)

This P2J sessions are something I'm really looking forward to each week.

S!

Stats up for Sunday 03rd Sep. 2006, as ever guys check and make sure I did your stats right.

Was quite pleased about the take offs in the second mission, I think all the wildcats took off(except Hunter whose rudder controls refused to work for him) and took only 15 - 20 secs for all to be airborn, nice work :)

Yes, it was great fun. It really feels like the bomber group is improving with each mission. We did not have any casualties yesterday I believe other than the enemy.
