Drop tanks won't be needed as the Luffwaffe were so low on fuel anyways...only kidding  ?

I did a painting years ago for a lady who was out there with her husband during the bulge.

He was a fuel bowser driver on an improvised (matting) airfield somewhere in Holland and was actually ontop of his (full) bowser when a load of German planes screamed in dropping bombs and strafing the airfield.

He drew his revolver and started shooting at the planes completely forgetting that he was standing on a big fat target, only afterwards did he think about what could have happened...?

Fuel management is a must have for me (as long as it's optional for those that don't want to use it). Nothing annoys me more than picking up a hit in a wing tank and watching the whole fuel load gradually drain away and there's nothing I can do about it.

I think this topic can be closed.

 

The original poster does have an answer to his question and now it gets off topic by discussions about droptanks, fuel management, engine management.

Let the thread continue.as the question asked about a higher resolution map hasn't been answered.
