I saw them do it

Recommended Posts

Flew a front line patrol mission today

Watched about 8 Spad 13's bounce our lead flight of 4 D7's

 

Seemed like it took forever but we caught up and joined in the fray

Bagged 4 of the Frenchmen then we formed up and headed for home

Lost 1 from our flight but my WM Viktor Stemmler and our flightmate Hans-Werner Schiering made an uneventful return

 

On approach I dropped down and landed while they flew on

On a hunch, I selected Player Target View and watched their flight

They went out of range (>4 mi) but to my surprize turned 180 and headed back

Realizing that they were going to land, I refired my mill and parked her next to a hanger

 

They made a low approach over the top of the hangers and touched down

Beautiful, great immersion ...til the #2 ran into #1 and they both went up in ball of flame!

 

Oh well, maybe next time

We'll drink to their memories in the canteen tonight :drinks_drunk:

Well, Duce, the part after touchdown is problematic; they seem to loose the ability to "know"

were the others are. But in my case (see thread "Halberstadts happily landing"), it almost all

worked well. They rolled in various angles, so they couldn't collide.

Olham,

 

Yeah they almost got it

I think the 1st actually stopped but the 2nd guy was a little too eager

 

Sorry, missed your thread

I should have added this there
