The REAL Aircraft #10, Report here. - Page 5

**Rain Man** · 01-21-2004, 09:09 AM

Don't let JOhn's crew bother you. They're the next airplane over.

I just wanted to let you know that I (randomly) handpicked you guys, because I think that as a team we're (randomly) the best da** crew in the sky. We're going to kick some Nazi butt over there.

You can suggest names for the aircraft if you'd like. I put a poll up that wasn't getting much action, so I made an executive ego decision to call the plane Rain of Terror, with the nose art depicted in the first post. Let me know what you think.

Pilot Rain Man
Copilot tk13

Will someone write letters to Betty, Marlene, Jeannie, and Lucy for me? You might want to be tactful with the first three.

4th and Long · 02-22-2004, 09:44 PM

Someone let me know when we fly (have flown if Im not here) so I can keep up with this.

I have some thing I need to attend to and must sneek across enemy lines to do so.

I hope this cheesy moustache disguise works out ok.

If anyone needs me in the short term, I'll be at the local pub quaffing down a few root beers.

Careful everyone. There are spies everywhere!

Was it to do this

4th and Long · 02-23-2004, 07:01 AM

DAMNIT! MY COVER HAS BEEN COMPROMISED!

Bug · 02-24-2004, 07:00 PM

I'll take you up on that round....or seven.....1st mission...didn't even get a single shot off at a Jerry....and get "promoted" to ball turret......I wonder who invented THAT idea...lol.

Bug · 02-28-2004, 05:44 AM

To,
Boeing Aircraft Company
Wichita, KS

Thank You. This is such a beautiful airplane....we maybe got dinged a little last mission, but we are in great shape now...the ground crews just love Gunther's Thunder III, we're gonna take her out again soon a bomb another Nazi target.
I've only completed one mission, but we did a good jop and Gunther's Thunder III got us all back to base in one piece. A couple of Nazi fighters weren't so lucky.
Everything works great, the only thing I would like to know is how do you hide a bottle of first aid medicine in the ball turret? Don't worry, it won't freeze, but it's kinda cramped and I was wondering if there was a little slot or something it might fit in.
Thanks again
Your most grateful friend

Dear Maw,

Guess whut? I done flied me one of them there missions and I had no ideur that I even flied it. I think that feller named Bug done went and slipped me a mickey before we took off cuz I was a tellin him I wasnt real big on being that high up in that thar airoplane. Turns out I even got a shot off at one of Hitlers aeroplanes, but I missed. Course I was 3 sheets into the wind apparently so ... go figure.

I heard Bug got moved somewhar else on the aeroplane. Sumthin bout him havin turrets syndrome I think. Says he has to stay in some big ol turrets ball. I think thats what he called it anyways. Maybe it's so when he starts ta cussin, the rest of the fellars dont have to hear it.

Love,

Yer son

Bug · 02-28-2004, 08:12 PM

Folks,
All is well here, we flew our first mission and layed our bombs right on target. There were a lot of Nazi fighters, and we shot a few of 'em down. Met this fella called 4th and long, he likes grandad's moonshine first aid medicine, but gets kinda bleary eyed after a few swigs, it does settle our pilot JOhn down though.
Got me a promotion to ball turret gunner, can't wait till the next mission. Got me two guns now, should be fun.
Mostly boring in the air, the country side looks a lot like Texas farmland. Gets a little bumpy when the flak gets close, but Taliswoman and Dartgood just give the Nazi's a moon shot. Mohillbilly is our best drinker, gotta keep hidin' the shine from him. Stinger and Roger play cards a lot, and read some kinda magazine full of pictures, not many words. Guess they like to keep it simple.
We get a new crewman this week, don't know him yet, but will share the first aid with him anyway.
Ya'll take care, see ya after 25 missions.
Bug.

Bug · 02-29-2004, 09:13 PM

ok...two missions down, no ammo wasted. (gotta shoot at something first) but I am not complaining. JOhn gets first pull on the jug this time.....
