Thre pilots in the air SCHALALALALA
We started off with helicopter mission. Night low flying poses a real challenge espacially for me as the transport pilot, but thanks to the bright road it worked out. We lost sight of each other a few times on transit, but I think we got better at formation at night towards the end. The Gazelle in its first mission kind of filled the role that is usually filled by the Ka50, but since the Ka50 suffers from the microlagg death issue it is nice to finally have a helicopter that can kill AA.
Later we learned that we are really bad at low level bombing with the A10c, but I saw some really nice hits in the training session that followed.
I guess the leason learned is either attack level ground while flying over the very same level ground in level flight, or carpet bomb the shit out of it.
The last mission had a lot of flying time and the briefing was lacking, but I had fun finding and shooting targets with the MK1 eyeball anyway.
Well and during our dogfighting I noticed that my Mig21 is even worse than I remembered against the Mirage

It cant be any better, it cant be any worse, because thats how it is. Quit the bitching.
