I want to thank you all for joining us. It has been awhile since we have had that many bombers to fly with us. We have been trying to get people intrested for years now and i think we are finily started to increase our numbers. I learned how to do high level bombing years and years ago with A-10. He is the master at bombing and for years me and him have made a great team. We are just so happy to have people take intrest in it. trying to find people that are intrested in doing what we do is not a easy task. i mean after all it is not the most exciting type of flying on IL-2 but when you get 10 bombers in formation and make it to target and drop the bombs it just makes a badass feeling for me and A-10.
A little info on just exactly what type of bombing we do: As stated before we do high level bombing. Our bombing altitude is 25,000 feet. Our main bomber is the B-17 or B-24. We usualy fly in AAA server and we bomb there spawn points on the runway. We usualy make 4 passes over target. All of our drops are done by manual releases. This is why we can make several passes over target if we want to. We can hit just inches away from our target about 95% of the time and the target usualy just explodes in flames when the bombs explode. we have gotten over 800 points before in a single mission.
I also want to give a huge thanks out to the 334th members they have been our dedicated escort now for a few months and have been doing a awsome job at it. thanks to them about 75%-85% of the time our bombers are able to make it home on a successful mission.
I also made a video awhile back covering everything we do and shows you just how accurate the bombsight table can be. I want to update the video later on and do a better job of it in version 2. Anyways here is the link to my current video.

and lastly i am finishing up a manual covering everything about high level bombing Key commands, how to use the bombsight table for the B-17,B-25,B-24,He-11, and JU-88. Gunnery tips, flying formation tips, what instruments you need to be looking at and more. I expect to be done with it soon.
