As the heinkels engine roared, he selected the lead wellington as the target. He only sought to wound the beast however.
His guns spitted out shells into the crafts wing, he kept going, flying below the bomber and he pulled the stick into his gut. The Heinkel nosed up, Gaining altitude quickly.

Two questions:
A. The SS are pretty lax on ranks, I guess.
B. What kind of elite Luftwaffe-pilot-working-with-the-SS doesn't shoot to kill? Hell, for all he knows, those bombers are up to some seriously no good shit.

Why they created the Officer Training Corps after WW1 to weed that out and produce officer who knew what they were actually doing.

I was under the impression that OTCs were formed after the 2nd Boer War in the Haldane Reforms as a part of the drive for national efficiency.
I mean, one OTC even has a Battle Honour from South Africa.

Alix used the Wellington's internal coms, which meant your character wouldn't have heard her (unless his real name is Clark Kent).

But she addressed it to all white and blue flights. Why would she address the fighters if she was using the internal coms?

A couple of months, but I don't play that often, and I only have the demo version. And I've landed on the Mun (though due to a mishap, couldn't return, as the ascent/decent stage had to be jettisoned), but the mission I screenshotted wasn't a Munar flight. Rather, I was testing a new design (and a kickass playlist, with several amazingly appropriate songs), and just kept flying straight up. I actually reached escape velocity with plenty of fuel to spare. As I'd accidentally gotten myself stuck in heliocentric orbits with no chance of returning home before, I had to do a retro burn to keep from flying out of Kerbin's grasp. Really, my trajectory could only be more accurately described as a really, really, really high lob than an orbit per se (especially as it never went around Kerbin). It took me 4 days to reach apogee at 76,000,000m (for those of you who don't play, the Mun is about 11,500,000m), and 5 days from there to get back. About halfway to apogee, I realized that I'd be coming in too hot to make a successful landing unless I did a burn during re-entry (luckily, I had more than enough fuel to sufficiently slow myself down). After I landed and took the screenshot, I modified the design slightly, to make it capable of landing and returning from the Mun, as well as giving it more monopropellant. I've yet to test the modified design. [/aspiring aerospace engineer]
