    Fall In 2023 Game 7 – Kanalkampf!

    My final Wings game ran Saturday 4-7pm. 6 pilots flew Bf 109Es, Hurricanes and Spitfires. I pushed the Stukas towards their targets.

    Pilots had a preference to fly for the RAF in this one. Latecomer, young Fritz wanted to fly RAF but all the spots were full so he hopped in a 109 with vengeance. The little guy got 4 kills! (with only a little guidance from his dad)

    The RAF try to intercept the Luftwaffe before they reach the transports in the channel.

    This game turned into the Fritz show. He downed 4 of the 5 RAF planes that were splashed. He did pay for in in being the only 109 to get shot down.(once to a boom)

    lol - best AAR ever. Great to see the young pilot terrorize the enemy, although I feel sorry for his dad's wallet: "Dad, I need some 190's!"

    This must have been Fritz's drink eh...

    That was quickly removed when I spotted it. Not Fritz's. There has to be one at every table!
