homepage Forums Air Combat & Civil Aviation Wings: Over Flanders Fields The "DiD Campaign Revival" - Intro, Rules, Reports & Records Chart

Jim, It could be lag time but my 1st pilot, Albert Andrews is dead. All the info on the chart is correct except the "dead" part. My reported new pilot, Benjamin Bloodworth, has flown 2 sorties. Like I say, could be lag time or I may have reported wrong. If so please disregard.

Thanks again for your work!

Guys, pls relax - we only make a proper chart twice a week; on Wednesday or Thursday,
and on Sunday or Monday. Just report your records Wed. and Sund. afternoon, and they
should get into the chart.

I don't have the time to check and make them new every day, and the 2-times per week
may hopefully let you act even more careful - you want to appear in the next chart
with your pilot still alive, right?

Ok Olham, 2 times a week it is.
I know that I need to fly more cautiously, pilot is still active, somehow. He won't be if he keeps terrorizing those EIII's

Ok I will mark Albert as dead. Carry on with Benjamin.

To all Pilots

Back in the fight. So what happens, back on Flight Status and it rains !

RNAS-4 is also grounded due to bad weather

Glad to see there is another RNAS 4 pilot ! Howdy there !
Looks like I'm better off with the nurses ...

Your better off with the nurses than in this leaky tent.

I'd like to advance through the missions and find out when the bad weather breaks. I wouldn't fly until that day arrives. Is that allowed?

Jim, if this post by you was in response to my post about Lothar, please do not take it as a slight! It was not meant to be a comment about your efforts. I am in no position to make derogatory comments about your work.
I was only reflecting on Lothar's skills and what he would have been capable of based on my experience with his work.

I apologize profusely if you took my comment as a slight on your work.

Best Regards;

Jim
Yesterday Wednesday I sent in last sortie and demise of pilot Albert Fuchs. Don't see it posted and not sure if I should start another pilot yet. Thought Wed/Thurs was reporting days. Please advise.

Thanks
Royce

I replied to cptroyces PM to me about this. But I thought I should tell all pilots that as soon as one pilot is DEAD then they should or can take on another of any Nationality and Squadron and Sector - the only difference is that the first name of the pilot has to increment to B or C etc and the date must follow on.

And your sorties start from the date that you take on your new pilot.

The reports will be published on Sunday and Wednesday as stated by Olham.

cptroyce and all:
after the demise of one pilot you can enlist another on the next day after his demise.
First name begins with the next letter in the alphabet, as Jim already said.

And remember: he has to fly the 3 hours on two-seaters again.

I said that we will have two charts, on Wednesday OR Thurday, and Sunday OR Monday.
It is quite a bit of work, so I cannot change it more often.

argghhhhhh bloody weather...gota wait till tuesday....oh well, off to the barber shop I guess

Yeah, I wonder what they might have spent their time with in rainy weather.
For a day or two, the mess might be a nice place to sit and play cards, chat,
write a letter or listen to someone playing piano.
But a strain of bad days might have made them want to be able to fly into combat again.

Or you might consider that every grounded day is a day where you don't risk your life !
It's great to know my first day out of hospital will be the first flyable day from what I've been told of the weather forecast. This way I don't loose too much time on other competitors !
In the meantime nurses take care of me...

Send us a picture of one

They probably flew their Wings Over Flanders Fields characters, wondering when in the world Pol and Winder were going to RELEASE THE DANG ZEPPELINS!!!

.

Since 24 Squadron has not been flying for the last couple of days due to inclement weather, (a common issue in Flanders at this point it appears), I've had some time to work on the DID campaign medals.



Let me know what you think.

Cheers!

Lou
