Thames barrier

July 15, 1940

Briefing:

Do-17's attack a convoy in the Thames Estuary

On a terrible weather day, in which there should be no enemy action, 15 D0-17's attempt an attack on a convoy "Pilot", in the Thames Estuary.

Spits and Hurricanes from North Weald scramble to defend the convoy.

Great to hear the call "20+ contacts", definitely gets the heart rate up.


Welcome back Ming (and Marsh) :)

  1. And the head to head takeoffs sure concentrated the mind. Shoot the bloody airfield controller for that one.

  2. Lol! I forgot about that.

    I'll add it to the list of things to check. I check each mission to swap out stand in a/c for correct ones in HSFX anyway.
