Overlord I
RE: Overlord I
We hate Australian ISP's. You would think moving one suburb would not cause so much trouble. I think getting his internet back on would have been easier if he had moved to Mars!

Mission Report:
My number 1 rule do not fly over anything you do not have to. Break the rule loss 18 planes from bomber command. I knew that airfield had a high number of HAA yet I still used it as a turning point. Dumb.

RE: Overlord I Day 60
Day 60
Going after his pilots today sending 3 raids to hit 2 airfields I know he has planes on an an extra split off raid to a rail yard. 400+ fighters per raid protection
11 FS trying to cover the area he has to fly through to get at my bomber stream. Lots of spitfires to boost numbers and now that his fighters have been bled a bit they can do some damage.
FB are still recovering to full strenght maybe some will fly tommorow.

RE: Overlord I
Glad to see that the two of you are back.
You have whipped the Luftwaffe. Congratulations. You hammer him every time he tries to oppose you. It appears that your main bane, at least during the daytime, is the HAA. Not much you can do about that, of course, except to avoid it as much as possible.
Any thoughts of a COBRA-like blitz? Maybe all your B-17's in one massive raid on a single division, and all your B-24's on an simultaneous attack on an adjacent division?
You'll have to excuse me. I think in the terms of the dramatic sometimes. [8D]
Anyhow, glad you guys are back at it.

Mission report:
Not a good day bombing wise but my fighters had a bit of luck even though all my fighter sweeps where back at home by the time the bombers arrived.

Day 62:
Half way my pilots are tired and I am giving them the day off.
Some fighter bombers and a FS trap are all there is today.

mission report:
FB's did OK with there bombing but I feel that I am just not damaging enough for the number of planes I am lossing.
He just won't bring up his fighters.
