C-47 D-Day Paradrop

[VBF-12_Stele]

D-Day is on!

0230
Heavy cloud coverage

 

We're about to drop the paratroopers into Normandy. Stay close to your formation as you approach the areas of Sainte Mere Eglise. Visibility is sparse due to the heavy cloud coverage, but the moon is out. Expect a response from German search lights and flak. Listen for the call to drop the paratroopers and don't panic!

Once the formation hits the eastern coast you can end the mission.

 

Good luck!

 

Note: This is more of a cinematic mission to get the feel of the Normandy night paradrop mission in a C-47

This really sounds cool, will be trying this out whenever I get Normandy.

Thanks for posting, i used your idea's basics, sorry, and added a P51B ground attack cover player, some 109s to spoil the fun and more.

As such extended it quite a bit. If you set the time an hour later you'll have a nice full moon.

Curious if it works if you DON"T own the c47a Collector plane, but only Normandy with the c47a Ai version ...
