    Default AAR Dayton Ohio Wright Flight May 8 2021

    Today we did some more Lafayette Escadrille vs. The Chancellors Eagles. We got two fun games in today.

    Mission 1


    First Mission was a Balloon Busting Mission. The American Flown French planes are on a mission to take out one of the German Observation Balloons.

    Jealous!

    Love the Caudron.
