I can't see. I was blinded by the Charge of the Heavy Brigade, what do I look like in the mirror?

Completely And Utterly Changing The Topic...

Found this prog from 1990 on Youtube about the RAF's last operational Avro Shackletons (then flying an AWAC role).

Like someone who can give jokes but can't really take them.

Here's an idea: stop sniping at each other and work on some IC posts!

I was waiting on Len and he ignored me....and he still doesn't realize it despite my telling him.

Oops
Sorry

Hooray!

Should we advance the story ourselves or do we just wait for tiger?

I'd avoid landing until Tiger gets back, if that's what you're asking. Just out of courtesy.
If you want to see unidentified aircraft of the horizon...well that's up to you.

Or at least do what I do during downtime and write some stuff to use later on in the mission or in a background story. How else do you think The Talbot Files got so long?

by **The balkens** » Sat May 25, 2013 5:33 pm

Sheer boredom.

To be honest, I got a thing planned. But I wont tell you! You can't make me tell you. Even if you send a hot girl in lingerie at my doorstep I'll never tell!
(you can send the girl though.

Sooo... when can I hop in? Has the next operation started, or..?

We're still on the current one, best sending a message to Tiger.

by **Kouralia** » Sun May 26, 2013 6:28 am

We need to send someone on a Snipe Hunt.

I have returned, well-rested (although slightly headachy)from my trip!
So expect IC posts soon.

Another Youtube vid, this time on a wartime Lancaster night raid filmed in colour. Granted its Bomber Command, though some aspects might be useful for us.

Very neat Morrdh...

On another note listening to the Iron Man 3 soundtrack, the title song, I think will be Pat's theme..

Speaking of bombers, I was considering sending Stanford on a conversion/training course for four engine heavies at some point after this Op. I plan to do it in a similar fashion to Morrdh's night fighter course, as a series of One Shots on here or as a stand alone thread. Would anyone else be interested?

The result would be our characters becoming something of a liaison with bomber command - particularly with what could be considered our "sister" unit, 617 Squadron.

Tempted, I mean Charlie's wish is to fly transport and so getting some experience on multi-engine aircraft may or may not help him reach that goal in conjunction with repeated transfer requests.

Kaya could *in theory* go along as well to build up some flight engineer experience.

by **Calizorinstan** » Mon May 27, 2013 12:48 pm

Pat would be interested definitely!

by **Goram** » Mon May 27, 2013 12:49 pm

We can postpone it as long as we want. Just remembered the date were on, November 1940. Ideally, I'd like to do it on Lancasters so that would mean we'd have to wait for February 1942.

By that point, I'm sure Charlie would be able to post away for a few months if he so wished?

Just thinking out loud really, that said I really do need to finish the Sabres In The Night series.
