    Default The Wright Flight Feb. 20, 2020 Meeting AAR

    The Wright Flight once again took to the skies for some Dog Fighting Action. Attendance was a bit light do to recent events. We had two flights. First was Italian Hanriot H.D.1 vs Central Powers Albatross D.III. We used only one standard map so the action happened quick and fierce.

    The skies went to the Italians this day!!!!

    The next game the Italians were on patrol again. This time they find a much tougher foe. A couple of Fokker E.V/D.VIII showed up in the horizon.

    The Central Powers planes got one of the Hanriot in their sights and took it down.

    The second Hanriot was able to get back into the fray. Unfortunately, the Fokker had his guns trained right back at him. They took each other out in a blaze of glory!!

    This one went to the Fokkers!!!

    A couple of good games. Afterwards, we went to one of our favorite watering holes and raised a glass to our fallen airman.

    Thanks for posting. It must have seemed strange to be missing such an icon from your games.
    His contributions and enthusiasm for the game will be sorely missed.
    Here's to Harry.

    Wish I had had a chance to meet him in person.
