I enjoyed it, flying with you, Headtaylor, Kodiak.

I look forward to a dogfight or team co-op mission in one of these IL-2 events.

[=OF=HORNET]

I will be running a IL2 Mission Possibly tonight or tommorow night ,


So check your flight controls and get ready for some hard hitting action , i might even get Kodiak to run his island hopping dogfight scenario , Uber fun !


Also , 1 jap carrier and 1 destroyer are still terrorizing the midway island , several attempts have been made at this ships but thier air defense is staggering .

We need these ships sunk asap , as intel reports more is on the way.


Amercian battleships are still inbound as this battle for midway heats up !!

Tonight ! lets plan on 2000 hours CST , post here if you gonna be there .


If we get enough people well run a dogfight session on kodiaks server!

if not well run coop on my rig , carrier attack or Berlin defense from b-17's.

I'll be here to fly and will meet on Old Farts TS3 about 15 min prior to start time.

I also have a dogfight map. On it are two stationary aircraft carriers for each team. The start of the session requires each pilot to takeoff from their carrier, as well as after each death. Both sides also have a defensive screen of destroyers for anti-aircraft protection.
Though it's definitely not historically accurate, because of the dogfight session, the only way to have an aircraft carrier in a dogfight map is to have it stationary.

On the other hand, we can fly in cooperative mode, taking off from aircraft carriers, and I've found the solution to making the carriers move at their historical speed, set the speed for each waypoint to 56 kmph! This way, we can fly dive bombers and fighter bombers from the carriers to the enemy fleet's position. Some of the pilots will have to volunteer to fly air cover protection for the fleet instead of going on the bombing mission.

I look forward to flying tonight. And if anyone needs more than a day's notice, please let us know so we can get more participating for the next IL-2 event.

Cheers!
