GiftZahnsSteigern Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 Fun Fact: It wasn't the appearance of the P 51 over Berlin that caused Reichsmarschal Hermann Göring to utter his famous speculation regarding the outcome of the war. It was this picture. 3

cripplehawk Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 My Pilot poster (Heinrich Hoth then a Leutnant) He sat on the sidelines since the beginning of the war. He spent most of the time Ferrying new BF109s to the frontlines. Oberstleutnant Friedrich Beckh the Squadron leader of JG51 decided to give him a chance "Hoth..don't ferry planes anymore, stay with me. Show me what you can do..If you prove your worth you can stay with us...." NOTE.... Hoth is fictional but his bio is based on a real person. Beckh however is VERY real. (Note put on spoilers due to swastika on tail) Spoiler 2

cripplehawk Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Hit and Run Circa October 1944. Despite the Allies having air superiority. The Luftwaffe is still a lethal threat. Two RAF B-25 bombers fall victim to a flight of 3 Me262s. One Me262 however later exploded while on approach at the Achmer Air base due to a damaged engine it sustained from the B25s killing the pilot. This view was taken from the ground. The fight lasted only 1 minute and 25 seconds.

oc2209 Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 It's cute how the AI tries to make head-on passes against a 262: The results of a low-speed collision. I had to shut my engine off to slow the spin of (what remained of) my plane, such that I could finally bail out: I rarely blow the tail off my target with gunfire, even with the help of explosions. This was a 30mm strike: These P-51s are kindly escorting me back to base: 2 1
