UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted January 29, 2011 Hi Gang Haven't done a skin for a while, and thought with P4 coming at some stage...with pics of Gotha's attacking our Green and Pleasant land, perhaps we should muster a defence! So here is D3459 an SE5a Viper of Number 61 Squadron Home Defence... circa 1918 (available soon in Downloads) The Huns will never get through! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olham 164 Posted January 29, 2011 ...with pics of Gotha's attacking our Green and Pleasant land, perhaps we should muster a defence! The Huns will never get through! Good one, Widowmaker! Not that it could stop us though - home defense pilots with lunch packs in their crates - I just imagine how he spills hot tea from his thermosflask, when the Zeppelin breaks through the clouds. Mmuahahahahahahaaaaa!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
von Baur 54 Posted January 29, 2011 Not only that, Olham, but we'll have dropped our bombs and be headed home before they can get up to us. Too bad they don't have some method of finding our planes before they can actually see or hear them. Some machine that will warn them that we're coming and from which direction, at what altitude, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted January 29, 2011 . Very, very nifty WM! I look forward to flying it against the bloody Hun some night in the moonlit skies above Blighty. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But they solved that problem quite efficiently and right in time for the Battle of Britain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mmuahahahahahahaaaaa!!!!!! Well if it was indeed Zepps, then the home defense crews would have been flying special Quircks and Fees. And don't get so cocky, some of your lads fell to the home defense crews of 1916. Just sayin'... Edited January 29, 2011 by Lewie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) I'm not cocky very often - I save it for Widowmaker. Special treatment to make him tougher, so he'll be prepared when he will find my Albatros at his rudder. I actually like a good cup of tea myself, by the way.

And as in the RFC old school, we add a wee dram of Issue Rum on cold nights when we have to ride the Messenger motorbike to St. Omer.

UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted January 30, 2011 The three huns in their Hannovers I just sent home in a box, probably wished they'd thought twice before flying over our Airspace! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
