This evening’s entertainment probably can’t be called a scenario. However there was action, and this is a report after the action.
The night’s game was inspired by a reply by P-51D in a thread “Are ‘bad’ planes fun to fly?” on 30/9/18. He described what they locally called Friday Night Flights. Essentially, it’s a free for all.
INSTRUCTIONS
Every chosen plane has a slip of paper with plane type. All these slips of paper went into the flying helmet. Each player then randomly selects a slip of paper and then flies that plane in battle in a free-for-all, where alliances are frowned upon.
Once a pilot is shot down, they then select a new slip of paper and enter the battle in the new plane.
The winner is the person who flies the least number of planes. If two or more players are equal, it is the one with the least damage on the plane being flown when the time for the game expires.
We chose one and half hours for our game, and stopped by the clock, not the action.

With a few exceptions the report shows photographs of when planes engaged with one another. I’ve left out general flying and manoeuvring to keep the length down.
