SC_Manu653 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Posted March 23, 2016 Thanks for thinking of us, I posted in our forums if anyone is interested. May have a few pilots but our scheduled flight days it might be to much. I'll have the X/O contact you if we have any takers Salute! A pleasure and Salute !
SCG_CorZero Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Sorry, I won't be able to make it this week. I'm flying (in) something larger (737-900). 1
JimTM Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 I need to know who are the leaders of the fighter elements and bombers elements on each side! If you are appointed as leader of your element I will send you're objective and recce info. With that you will be able to coordinate your navigation and planning for your command during the week. As Axis side 110 will be Specter. Me for 109 JG52 .May I suggest Pz3man for fighter VVS and Pe-2 JimTM ? Not really leading but give time to planning the flight . Sure, I can lead the Pe-2s, I never used the whisper function. I'll have to read up on that. I assume I need to set up a keybind for that, right? curiousGamblerr, Jade_Monkey I was thinking of dive bombing since my triple screen makes using the bomb site a challenge to use (until devs are able to fix some issues in the future). Are you both OK with that? Salut!
SC_Manu653 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Posted March 23, 2016 I can show you in 2 min how to set-up it. Very fast even with my french-canadien accent ! Great I send you what you need to know ! 1
SOLIDKREATE Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 OWNER OF SERVER If not done already I'd like to make skin packs for all aircraft units that you chose for your campaign. I know that there is a skin pack for StG 5 already.

curiousGamblerr Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Jim- I'm fine with dive bombing And whisper lists aren't too hard if we need them, p3zman had me set up in a moment's notice last time we used whispers. I could also lead the IL-2 flight since we don't have any signed up yet... we'll see what turnout looks like as we get closer to Saturday and work it out. Oh, also, Dear Luftwaffe, we will be level bombing from 6000m going 250kph... you didn't hear anything about dive bombing, or anything like that...

SOLIDKREATE Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Nice initiative ! Do you want to put it there or we make an Skins SNBF thread ? They'll be put here and in the appropriate skin threads for the people who want to fly the missions. I need to know specific staffels of what you want in your server i.e 5./JG52, 6./KG26 ect. So, get me a list in a PM. And I will start. I already have the 15.(Span)/JG51 4a Azil Summer '43 skins done for the Fw-190. I am currently working on dirty winter skins for the same pack.
SC_Manu653 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Posted March 23, 2016 Since the VVS and some AXIS element had some trouble tu fulfil their roster on mission, I'm planning for each SNBF held for EU times (15h00EST) to bring a link to the Russian forum of BOS. I will ask them to participate with at least one leader of each element able to speak English or at least read it. It will bring some new guys for the benefice of all ! What do you think about that ? 2
JGr2/J5_W0LF- Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Just an FYI, Please use those 4 slots for others who want to join the Saturday Bombing mission. Our pilots have other engagements. Salute!

216th_Lucas_From_Hell Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Ready to support our Russian-speaking friends with whatever needed using my limited Russian. This one is a little too late for me, but otherwise count on me
ACG_pezman Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Sure Manu, I can take the lead for the Soviet fighter elements. It would also be nice to coordinate with the other flight leads and have separate TS channels; It gets very confusing once people start getting into their missions. Sure, I can lead the Pe-2s, I never used the whisper function. I'll have to read up on that. I assume I need to set up a keybind for that, right? ... Yeah, you have to set a key-bind for it. But it's a tad-bit more complicated than that. You have to select what channel you want it to whisper to. I can walk you through it before the match starts on Saturday.
SC_Manu653 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Posted March 24, 2016 15OO EST American time? No it's 20H00 EST this week. Sure Manu, I can take the lead for the Soviet fighter elements. It would also be nice to coordinate with the other flight leads and have separate TS channels; It gets very confusing once people start getting into their missions. Yeah, you have to set a key-bind for it. But it's a tad-bit more complicated than that. You have to select what channel you want it to whisper to. I can walk you through it before the match starts on Saturday. It's what we are training now. As a key, leaders of fighters must be in contact with each element of bombing. Actually you can whisper at each clients (leader of each elements) better than channel one, it takes 2 min to show.
JimTM Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Thanks p3zman, Manu. I looked at a YouTube video and I think I'm up to speed now. I'll review a few things with you guys before the mission starts. Salut!
Jade_Monkey Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 I have to say that for a "bomber event" the number of people flying bombers (especially he111) is a bit underwhelming. I wish there was a way to build up the bomber numbers. Some incentives? Maybe airstart? Just brainstorming.
SC_Manu653 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) Will try to find a way but I have already an option that I will share on event. I send an invitation too on the Russian Forum on this link http://forum.il2sturmovik.ru/topic/4132-mezhdunarodnyj-match-v-subbotu/ to bring more peoples. @71st_AH_P3zman I already sent you the info by mail. Edited March 24, 2016 by 4./JG52Manu653
Jade_Monkey Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 I'm not criticizing BTW, just wondering what can we do to encourage more people to fly bombers. Other than bringing more people on board, is there something we can do to shift some of the current fighter pilots towards bombers (without forcing them)

Other than bringing more people on board, is there something we can do to shift some of the current fighter pilots towards bombers (without forcing them) Yes, we will implement it on the event. One of the option I have will be to split on each side (if needed) the campaign under 2-3 waves where we can fulfill at least the objective. Like level bombing first, ground attack second wave etc. Edited March 24, 2016 by 4./JG52Manu653
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Might jump into a Heinkel next time (when event is running at 15 EST) if required.

Like level bombing first, ground attack second wave etc. I like this idea, and the VVS sort of did this last week anyway. We concentrated on ground attack with IL-2s and the Lagg mission before regrouping for the Pe-2 objective for the second sortie. It worked out well and was definitely the best SNBF we've had on the VVS side. Also, I am definitely against air starts as an incentive. Half the fun is taking off, getting into formation, etc. IMO. 1
216th_Peterla Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Hi folks, I still need to figure out if I can join you (I'm GMT+4 and I don't know how to set this to Abu Dhabi time) but if I do it I'll grab an IL2. Regards,
SC_Manu653 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Posted March 24, 2016 Hi Peterla, Let'see if I'm -4 now and you are +4 it's a 8 hours later for you (maybe 9hrs because of summertime hour changing during the night 26/27 march). So it' should be very soon at 04h00 or 05h00 AM.
Haza Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Peteria, Use the table in the link attached. http://www.timebie.com/timezone/easterndubai.php Regards
216th_Peterla Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Hi guys, You are right. It will be 4:00am for me. Sadly my weekends are Friday - Saturday so at this time I will be waking up to go to work. I will try to catch up with you next time I have a Sunday off. Regards,
GrendelsDad Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Hate to do this but I have to bow out due to family events...I will be back for sure next week. Look forward to reading the AAR's.
No_85_Gramps Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Although my first two attempts flying SNBF were a disaster and a semi-disaster, I have to pass this week due to family commitments. At least I'll get some more time to practice my navigation skills, which are sorely lacking at this time. To everyone else flying...have fun!
SC_Manu653 Posted March 26, 2016 Author Posted March 26, 2016 No problem GrendelsDad and Gramps see you next time !
SC_Manu653 Posted March 27, 2016 Author Posted March 27, 2016 Thank you for all for your participation on this holidays event. The next one will be at 15h00 EST, this timing may bring us some Russian speaking participation. 2
JimTM Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 It was a fun night. Thanks Manu and everyone else involved. 2
