~S~ Welcome to Bears Campaign.
Campaign #5
There are no claims to factual events in this campaign it has been made for your enjoyment. We will fly a variety of aircraft throughout this campaign, something different in each endeavor.
Today the F6Fs and F4Us will loadout for the final ground attack to clear out all enemy at LeHavre and Triqueville. The enemy are retreating from the area. Down all enemy aircraft. We have an armada of ships heading there to establish our own air bases.
Out of Caen airfeild, P47s and Typhoons will load out for a ground/air attack and take off heading to AU10/5. destroy all aircraft and AAA.
B17s, escorted by P51s will take off at Caen for a high altitude bombing of German aircraft at the airbase SW of Paris on the line of AZ/BA 8. This bomb run will be a test of the Germans activity and defences for the Paris region. Keep your eyes peeled.
Beaufighters take off and attack the Tripitz with the Late torpedo, we must destroy this ship! Then advance towards LeHavre to assist in the ground/air attack.
Our main objective is to secure LeHavre as our forward base and keep it.

Assuming this is the P-47D, late or is it the P-47D-27?
For the Tiffies and Jugs, looks like our target in AU-10 is the airfield at Evreux. Two grids short of our target is the airfield at Beaumont le Roger, its pretty close to being on the direct line from from Caen to Evreux. We may wanna aim for the bottom of AS-10 first then turn for Evreux to give Beaumont le Roger a wide berth in case of flak or other nastiness emanating from it.
Comme ca :

I like the bottom of AS-10, that way we can expect any "nastiness" only coming from our left. If we go top of AS-10 then we technically split two airbases.
je te plumerai!
Alouette, gentille alouette, alouette je te plumerai. Je te plumerai la tête
DW, Êtes-vous d'accord?
Woody, si vous continuez à parler français, vous allez finir par surrenering au cours de la mission.
S!
English it is. Or should I say American!
~S~
The C.O. said, "if you continue to speak French, you will eventually surrenering during the mission."
TD, you have been promoted to Translation Officer.
Congratulations.
S!

Hey Bear I will not be able to make it on Tuesdays flight, I will be leaving town for the next 6 days to go see Nimble and my Brother. I hope to be back in time for racing. Sorry Mate.
Lip, get Nimble's game straighten out while you are there.
He sees allied planes as blue, it's a conflicting mod issue.
S!
Ok then, theres an F4U slot opened up.
~S~
F4U for me please.
But TD is slotted in to fly an F6F with BB, is he abandoning his wingman??
DW
I take it I'm still slotted into a Beaufighter, correct?
