Bloody April IX Campaign - Final Results Posted

[JGr2/J5_Baeumer]

Update:  Participant campaign ribbon and individual awards and recognition posted.  Special thanks to all the pilots of RoF and FC WWI flight sim community who supported and participated in this years (ninth!) annual event and made it successful once again!  Awards may be viewed on the official event forum by clicking here.  Jasta 5 hopes to bring our annual "Black September" campaign in Flying Circus later this year.  Stay tuned!

 

Jasta 5 is actively transitioning into Flying Circus.  We're already planning to move Black September over this fall, if possible, following the anticipated release of the Arras map in FC.
 

The pilots of Jasta 5 would like to invite everyone who has flown Rise of Flight and Bloody April to join us in this year's Bloody April.  At the same time, we would invite those virtual pilots, new to the WWI air combat community and FC, to join the larger WWI air combat community in this campaign.  In the end, we are all part of a larger community of WWI flight sim enthusiasts in this world wide campaign that has regularly drawn 100 pilot registrations each year.

 

Please see the post and participate in the poll here:

I don't think that should happen until we see more Volumes of FC. 10 planes in FC while 30+ still in Rise of Flight.

 Black September is a late war campaign. While I do wish there were more two seat AC available, it will be entirely do-able with the set from FC1.

Achtung!

German intelligence reports indicate increased British railway activity as well as ground and aerial reconnaissance activity in the Reims sector.....analysis suggests an attack is probable in the sector within the next 24-48 hours.....

All leave is cancelled and all pilots are ordered to stations on full alert....

Looking forward to tomorrow! ?

After action reports, pictures and videos of this year's Bloody April campaign are viewable here.

 

Jasta 5 looks forward to bringing Bloody April campaign to Flying Circus when suitable two-seaters and the Arras map become available.  We are hoping to bring our fall campaign, Black September, to Flying Circus in 2019.

Wishful thinking I suspect.
