Lol, Hiya Stuartc, Great to see you here. I'm the guy you buzzed in your Spit yesterday before expertly landing it on it's nose at a fast rate of knots, hehe. Pull up a deckchair and make yourself at home, mate  |

The B17 on the otherhand was actually too slow !

One of the many screenshots Ive taken while unknowingly flying with Algernon. This was our bombing raid on Ibiza when France stealthed itself and vanished  |

The French never change do they - if it looks like trouble, they hide  That was a good flight indeed. And how was your holiday, if holiday it was? |

It was a holiday, it was hot, sticky and lazy. It was great
Kept annoying the fellow passengers on our flight by talking through what the pilot was doing.
I have a video of me tailing your airliner with my B1B kicking arround.

PS: Good choice of target. Those Ibizians can be vicious, lol.

One thing you didn't mention. Did you actually hit the target?

No.
Algernon suffered a systems failure ( WiFi failure) as we crossed into spain from the invisable France which left me on my own.
I got intercepted by a Spanish registerd F5 on the south coast ( the guy ether couldnt fly properly or was trying to intimidate me with his manouvers ).
Fighter escourt required next time.

That pesky Spanish airforce! No worries. Next time you guys go, I'll keep in the time period and escort ya with either a Hunter or Bucaneer.
