Mediums hitting PRI AF, Havocs going after a PRI AF down in Normandy

Heavies going after steel and last undamaged rubber in the rhur

Mission report:

What a bloody day almost 400 planes lost in a day. 1 group of p-38's jumped and almost totally destoryed.

Bombing was not to bad, but a lot of fighter vs fighter action as this was the first time the germans really came out to play.

Not a full mission report but it does show the main fighting

Might be late information, you seem to have used up all of the Typhoons[:D]

Have you ever noticed that while BC, 2TAF, 8&9 AF have target restrictions, Fighter Command is free?

If you had any capable Fighter Bombers they may be able to do some hit and runs or sweeps and take pressure off the Normandy front?

Hi Stoneage- enjoying watching the game unfold - you may have to wait a couple of days -Operation Cobra didn't kick off until 25th July. Until then the front lines were pretty static. The game seems tied into the historical dates
