Plane #18 – Fooooo Fighter


Pilot NaptownChief
Copilot Tommykat
Bombardier PastorMikH
Navigator Mr. Christopher
Engineer B2chiefsfan
Radio Op. Adam
Tail Gunner Amnorix
Ball Turret Gunner KC Kings
Right Waist Gunner el borracho
Left Waist Gunner NewChief

Target: Cherbourg, in sunny western France
Mid-formation both horizontally and vertically (low vulnerability)

Zone 1 Out: Britain
No enemy

Zone 2 Out: English Channel

1 Me109, 1 Me110 attack – Me 110 driven away by fighters

Pastormikh fires, misses
B2chiefsfan fires, misses
Mr. Christopher fires, misses

Me scores 2 hits
-hit to waist knocks out the heating element on newchief’s flight suit. Newchief is uninjured but can only fly another half-hour at altitude before the risk of severe frostbite sets in.
-superficial damage to nose

Me circles and attacks again

Adam fires, misses

Me misses, breaks off attack

At this point, Naptownchief must make a decision. If he remains in formation for the entire flight, newchief is likely to suffer severe frostbite. However, the plane is in good shape otherwise and has no other inflight problems. Naptownchief makes the decision to fly to the target zone and then decide. If a crew member is lost en route, newchief can move to their position.

Zone 3 Out: France (Entering Target Zone)

3 FW190s attack – 1 is driven away by fighters

B2chiefsfan fires, damages FW190
Newchief fires, misses
Pastormikh fires, hits FW190

1 FW misses, breaks off attack

Despite being damaged by b2chiefsfan, a diving FW scores 2 hits

Both FWs break off attack

4 Me109s are driven away by fighters

2 FW190s are driven away by fighters

Entering Bomb Zone
Good Weather
Medium flak – 1 hit
-superficial damage to radio room
Despite the flak hit and the cursing of b2chiefsfan, pastormikh makes a great bomb run – 30% score

Zone 3 Back: France (Leaving Target Zone)

Naptownchief makes the tough decision to drop the Fooooo Fighter out of formation and down to 10,000 feet to save newchief. Since the plane is still over flak this will expose it to occasional flak and also means that any fighters that find the Fooooo Fighter will sustain attacks against it as long as possible. Since the radio is still working, though, some fighter support is still available.

Light flak attacks miss

6 FW190s attack – 2 driven away by fighters

Amnorix fires, damages FW190

Plenty of high fives for amnorix, who scored hits on three enemy fighters. Newchief gives naptown a case of beer.

Sounds like things got a little chilly back there for NewChief. He was probably firing off some excess ammo and hanging onto the warm gun barrels there for a while....

Damn, I haven't been keeping up with this thread. Sub-forums suck ass.

Good. I'm quite sure he's been planning my death since the other night. Finally deciding to play nice and accept me. It was all an act. fucker.

Great job Foo Fighters! You killed one!

:toast: WooWoo


[Elvis]Thank You, Thank You Very Much[/Elvis]

Yeah, I even put up somewhat of a memorial of words on your behalf and you missed it.

:shake:

Damn, this bit of rolling dice is more exciting that craps!

That would be because he was flying my side of the plane towards the flak. I'm telling you he was conspiring to take me out and make it look like a casualty of war......

I will admit that after waiting for the last couple of days, my blood got pumping a little bit just reading about our run. This is some great fun and will only get better. Huge props to Rainman for all of this! :thumb: :toast:

I agree Rain Man deserves huge props!

I will haunt your murderous ass Frazee, mark my words.
