Re: No.29 Squadron: AARs and Victory Board
Perfect. That's everyone accounted for. Looking forward to the big off tonight.
Re: No.29 Squadron: AARs and Victory Board
I've made the new scoreboard up, but I'll make more changes after tonight's sortie/s and upload it then
For the record, Secu is now the longest serving pilot with a whopping 21 flights to his name!

Re: No.29 Squadron: AARs and Victory Board
Yeah, some of us need more flights under our belt. There needs to be a 25 sortie medal. 21 is damn impressive though.

Mission Date: 10-08-16
Time: 12:30
A mission to destroy an enemy balloon turned into our first encounter with four Halberstadt D.IIs. 29 gave a good account of themselves but it seems that our own AA guns took care of them all. I got some hits in one, Bully could have claimed one. It seems in all the excitement that Bunny took a hit and crash landed. He may or may not have collided with me. Nev could at least claim the balloon before heading back. Secu had to lead the squadron to the dirigible as I had taken hits to the engine and it died. I managed to ditch in a field. Unfortunately on attacking said dirigible 2nd Arlen 'Broadsword' Taylor collided with it and fell to his death.
