More of the same...

It may look like a Val, but brensec is really in a P-40! Brensec did not show up on the "radar" and I had no on screen damage text. Strange game online at times!

Shot down in a Blaze of Glory! The final moments of my P-40.

Chasing down my pal brensec. His P-40 was also much faster than mine!

And down he goes again. I think he let me shoot him down for the camera!

On the deck! Brensec's Val (P-40) looks to be stuck in some quick sand!

Again, looks like a Val, but this is actually a B-29.

All alone in a clear blue sky.

Once again, the score board tells the tale. I managed to get upto a 1 to 1 kill ratio!

I enjoyed last night scrap but it would have been nice to get a few more players. Maybe next week guys?

56k works fine, just keep an eye on the general discussion board for more info, it usually happens about 9pm BST or 4pm eastern time.

Hope you are well for next week pal, it was good fun this time. Grin

I don't know why we chose Sunday. If everyone is happy, we could always change back to Saturday but it's not really up to me.

The current time (Sunday nite GMT) is actually 0630 Monday for me. So Saturday nite GMT would be Sunday morning.
So, under normal circumstances, going back to Saturday nite would be better for me, but I only work 3 shifts a week so I'm pretty much OK for anytime, unless I'm unlucky enough for it to happen when I'm working or about to go. But this would be rare. Grin

Upshot = whatever suits the majority.
(some peoples wives have a real big problem with Sunday being "FAMILY DAY". And some blokes may not want to appear to be "whipped" by saying so.

I've never played online myself. When using 3rd party aircraft I think the other players will show up as defaults for everyone without the same aircraft installed to their own CFS2.

That's what usually happens. Sometimes other planes show up a bit strange, usually like a wingless Zero, but this time when we started out everyone was on the "radar" but when brensec, and only brensec, changed plane, it did not show up on "radar" at all. I could see his plane with it's labels well enough though! Like I said, it's a strange game online at times! Good fun though! Grin
