got em in IL-2 1946 too now, and looking even better if I'm honest

One thing is a strafing run after a bombing mission or an airport attack, but loitering over enemy airfields is just not realistic and stupid, what's the fun in shooting something down in a vulnerable position?

View it as an opportunity:

1. Warm up at Hawkinge, take off, get shot down. Bugger.
2. Take off from an inland base, gain altitude and approach Hawkinge at 10k feet. Dive on the base and engage the vultures with superior energy.

What is the RAF secondary base? There is a runway at a base way north that's tricky to use. I wonder if that is the same one. Maidstone? It's like driving over the lunar surface. bouncy bouncy bouncy bouncy

There's also Rochester nearby that's much better, plus Canterbury that the LW can't find because we camouflaged the cathedral.

the correct terms are vulture and vulching

when i find a vulture i wait for him to cross my sight while im stopped, once almost shot one

I thought the proper definition for vulching in internet air combat slang was:

You shoot up a guy, his engine is on fire heading down, along comes Johhny A-hole and puts 1 more round in him and says "chalk one up for me" and he gets credit for the kill.

Doesn't apply in Cliffs of Dover. It can't happen that way.
