If I got my maths right we might be able to field 5 - 6 pilots if kammo and me join in. Can extra pilots join in, say a flight of 6?
If not, no worries I will join the other chaps doing Rise of Flight.
Also im sure I read somewhere that its vanilla 4.09m, is that right?

Hopefully IKE responds flashy.. I think squirrel wants to try this as well. Making us a total of 6 pilots.. I hope it won't be a problem

Generally, it would be great if you could bring up 6 pilots.
If all the pilots showed up tonight, we might outnumber the Luftwaffe, which those pilots would not appreciate; we generally try to avoid this.
BUT:
Firstly, a few guys normally do not show up or cancel on short notice, so there is room for back-up pilots.
Secondly, in the last few events we, the red side, were always outnumbered quite significantly by blue pilots, and there they didn't have a problem with that, so why not feed them the same medicine once in a while? ;D
So all of you who would like to participate, please join in. I think that shouldn't be a problem, one way or the other. The only thing I'd like to ask you is to stick to the P47D-27 as a unit, as more pure fighters would certainly stirr up emotions on the other side.

You guys will fly fighter-bomber missions and are allowed to take bombs only, no rockets (blue pilots complained that they don't have them and they would be a significant advantage to us)

Hey SYN pilots,
I'd like to thank you for your participation and your outstanding performance in this event. It's always fun flying with you, although I still have to polish my English a little bit, I noticed. It's quite difficult to communicate in German with one half of the crowd, then switch channels and do it all over again in English, but we managed, I think :-)
There is an event in the making where I am in charge of the organisation (maybe I can make things a little bit more organized than they were on Sunday, nobody really had an idea of what to do and how, I've already discussed this fiercly with the organizers), and it will be similar to the Strategic Bomber Mission 2 we once held, only that the Luftwaffe will fly the bombers this time and the Soviet Air Force has to intercept the raid. Could you imagine flying Yak-1 and MiG-3?
I'll keep you informed, please tell me whether you like the proposed idea and whether you would generally like to participate.
Best regards from Germany
Ike

Ike, Your English is great We had a blast on Sunday's event, and I'm sure we can field just as many the next time. Looking forward to what you come up with for the next one! Cheers!
