FIRE DOWN BELOW (ONE HUN DEAD AT 180 degrees C)

[Captain kiwi]

Wednesday 13/01/16

Mission Covert Landing by Halberstadt into enemy territory to pick up an operative with vital information. Protection supplied by a pilot from the Prussian Knights of Jasta 85



Captain Kiwi planning his tactics



Two British Camels on routine patrol spot the EA's



Halberstadt approaches the landing zone with Fokker DV11 from the PK's forward of him




The Camels approach as the Halberstadt heads for the landing area. The DV11 manoeuvres in between the Halberstadt and the camels hoping to ward off any attack



Halberstadt on approach the DV11flies over to tackle the camel threat



Some very clever manoeuvring by the camels throws the DV11 of course and away from the action and puts the Camels right behind the Halberstadt



Text book landing by the Halberstadt pilot



However excellent shooting by the Camel pilots putting the Halberstadt on fire as it lands



Using 3 moves to turn the aircraft and 1 house rule of no movement to put the fire out left the Halberstadt a sitting duck on the ground and taking severe and substantial damage from the Camels "Game Over"

The PK DV11 was out of his depth and out of the fight inexperience showed against the supurb team work and clever flying of the British Pilots Well Done!

Another superb effort by the British Chaps.

Minus the flames!

Great little AAR... thanks for sharing!

[flash]

Nice little action - Looks like Rob has passed the torch ... must make a change to be handing out the flame rather than picking it up !!

[LOOP]

Haven't done that many takeoffs and landings so anything that doesn't crash is textbook for me
Great little AAR Andy

Well done my surname sake. A fine scenario and nice AAR.

Keep up the good work bringing down the Hun.

Well done Brits, next time maybe not so luckily

[Flying Officer Kyte]

For his first ever landing Andy did very well.
Pity about the fire. Can't really overdive on the ground.
