Good replies coming in here, I'd like to thank you all for your contributions thus far.
I anticipated that the MS Flight-Sim peeps might get turned on by this kind of thing. After all, that is basically you, a plane and two runways seperated by 2000 miles of water. At least bomber campaigns have some fighter intercepts and a target to pulp.
I guess its partly a selfish thing as well. Since I'm building the missions, I need to fly them a few times to tweak, test and make sure that the intercepts are timed right, that they do actually spot the bombers and that everything else ticks over as it should.
I'm not sure I could cope with having to commit so much time to the testing aspect. I'm not going to use this as an excuse to give up. I've started, and clearly there is some demand for it, even if only to the hardcore flyer.
Perhaps I'll work on a smaller scale to begin with, gain a bit of experience and maybe then I won;t need to test so much. We'll see...
Cheers,
Rob.
