After work I fly...I mean drive 2 1/2 hours to spend the weekend with my wife.
I'll be flying the skies of WW1 in the Prague Con 'Richthofen Campaign'
Leutant Helmut Pfeiffer will be doing his best to protect the Rittmeister as he flies to further glory for country and Kaiser!
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
P.S.
Might be having a drink or two in remembrance and honour of a great warrior, great leader and great patriot.

But you must wait until debriefing, Tim
my buddy tom and i re flew his last duel.
Who want to join ?
RAF needs reinforcement.
It's a gaming day at my house: I wonder if I can talk some of the regular attendees into a WoG game of Brown vs Richthofen vs May.
R.I.P. Manfred!
I spent about 3 hours flying 6 Sopwith Camel against 5 Fokker DR.1 and 2 Albatross DIII earlier to commemorate MvR's final flight.
AAR will be in the WWI section as soon as I can write it up.
Look forward to seeing that Dale.
