After my lackluster start by missing the whole airfield of Ahtuba, so did Tip step in and showed me how to create pretty explosion of everyday objects as trains and boats.

That did not go as well as planned. First my Mic went to meet its maker, then my p.c. decided that now was a good time to play 'silly buggers'. So I had to leave before it even started.

Apologies to 1./KG4_Odessa et al for the poor show.

Proceeding to an emergency airfield I turn into a patroling IL2. Desperately attempting to get underneath so the gunners could take a shot...

After a couple of turns into one another. I still can't get underneath and he's apparently out of ammo so we part ways. Who was this masked man?

Hi all,

 

First of all I want to explain the following pictures.

After being shot down by a unknown enemy in the area of Beketovka, I re-spawn again in V. Ahtuba and with sirens and AAA fire all around me. I started the a/c and take off immediately. Suddenly I saw x3 aircraft attacking positions south of the airfield and I observe one of them smoking.

With the idea that were Pe2's I headed that direction to help suppress enemy vehicles/forces but then I realized that the enemy lines were far from there, so I increase manifold/rpm to maximum and start the 9-10 min reverse counting(until engine explodes in the IL2M42) and go as fast I can to intercept them. 

Those things were fast and the IL2 was at max power, 216th_Pod jumped on the gunner seat and we start discussing if we ever going to catch them up; the further onto enemy lines the more dangerous will be, and we have some painful memories about that in previous FNBF's.

I didn't realized where we where until we engaged them; for some reason they were climbing and decreasing speed and we had the chance do a single attack.

As far as I can tell the undamged Ju-88 was the first we engaged and, with a lucky shot, the RH flap was snapped, creating a lift asymmetry towards the right side(left wing with more lift due to extended flap) plummeting the aircraft towards the ground. After that, I manage to put some shots on the other Junkers but when I realized it was landing(I clearly saw the runway) I stop the attack, but it was too late for him and he crash land at the beginning of the runway.

 

After having my hearth biting on normal levels again I think about how lucky we were during the chase, to have patience and to choose the appropriate timing for our attack(doing a single pass) and get the hell out there. But do I have a question regarding this: How far can be done this action in FNBF's? Are we allowed to chase an enemy to the end(not vulching an airfield of course)? When to decide to abort an attack?

To be honest and after reviewing the track I felt bad for the guys; I even feel bad seconds after the engagement. When I realized they arrived to the friendly airfield was too late for them. The action was already taken. Those are some questions that we can discuss here to clarify future situations, similar to the one described above.

 

There is also other curious thing: At the beginning of the track, I saw x3 planes. They were x2 Junkers-88 and a single BF109G4 with gunpods. That 109 was flying around the airfield(V. Ahtuba) and missed to spot my sneak approach to the Junkers. I don't know what was his job but he fail to escort the planes back home. I can only observe him for a while but the last time I saw him was still around V Ahtuba.

Regards,

As the Airfield was being used in an emergency role and was not one of the designated ones. I would say tough luck for the 88's and good shooting.

The masked men were Cat (gunner) and I (pilot). Aileron was damaged so opted to return to base. If only I had known the smoking hulk was in fact Tip the Creator... 

 

In the next sortie we parachuted into enemy territory after a lone Gumrak AA unit took us out. 

 

Was an excellent mission again, thanks for organizing these.

As usually I hit the ground with my usual accuracy , not many have hit it so much as I have at great speed. After being hit in the control surfaces and engine I decided to take out a tank before I headed for home. My  elevator control  seemed adequate for such a task, if I was hit again or the elevator worked less than I thought I could not manage to pull up in time. 

Since it was about mulligan time I respawned and took another sortie Witch ended in me seeing the magnificent hits from aaa on pod , and in awe forgot to evade my self being  the next victim. 

Looking forward to the next one

That's definitely so, but there was another masked man! There was a sixth Il-2, that wasn't with us on comms, wasn't on the sign-ups and we never saw again. An Il-2 '41 that took off from Kaganovicha. Anyone owning up?

Cheers.

Tip, first I have to apologize: I always forget to capture the missions - just one key, but somehow I forget.

 

  This time it was really sad because I had great fun chasing a flight of 3 Ju-88 lurking around between Akatovka and Verh. Athuba. Coming back from a bomb run the Pe-2-87 had to give anything to catch up with the Ju-88s. They stayed together and opened up with their defences resulting in a lot of holes in my plane and serious fuel leaks. (btw: with a single threat just slightly faster than the formation it might have been wise to break up and go on alone. I hopefully will have it in mind when a single Me-110 chases me in a Pe-2-formation.)

  I opened fire as soon as possible, always in fear of blue fighters. There's not that much to do than harassing a Ju-88 with the weak forward guns at long range. Anyhow, one Ju-88 crashed suddenly - I suspect a pilots error and a patriotic tree much more than a critical hit? Now stats are up - has been DBS Chicky.

Enjoyed the mission Tip, thanks. Killed once as a pilot and again as a gunner - it's a hard life... ;)

I can see everyone's Pilot Stats apart from mine and LuseKofte's. Any ideas?

Cheers.

I think 1.JaVA_Jumper was the unknown il-2 :)

Looks like something to do with the IL2-43s and the Stats program. I'll give Marta a heads up.
