FiF XVII Mission 1 Sept 18 2030EDT: Map and Brief

MISSION BRIEF:
Scouts to establish a BARCAP at the front. Tripes high closer to the front; Pups slightly lower and behind. Patrol your boxes so that when one element is at one end of the box, the other element is on the other side of the box. Coordinate with comms. Do not attack enemy alone, call in the rest of your flight. You may call in the adjacent box for large plane groups. Notify CO. Our enemy is flying the Albatross D.IIlt, D.III and the DFW 2-seater; they like to have an altitude advantage. They have been seen sneaking out to sea and crossing over Dunkerque to begin their operations.
2-seaters to recon enemy HQ and return with pictures; direct artillery fire on enemy positions; search and destroy ships, bridges, trains and convoys. It is advised you stay high enough to enable you to evade/run away from the enemy but low enough to spot trains and vehicles.

In, scout, where ever you need Gold, we'll be eager to do our part!

Flat, how many two seaters do you want for this mission...assuming Flybert surfaces are you okay with the mix?

I'd like 5, but I'd also like to sit out the first half hour to hour of the mission if I can get enough sign ups, or ride as observer in one.
