    Some of the first American airmen to join the air war over Europe were the volunteers of the RAF’s Eagle Squadrons. In 1942 they were transferred to the Mighty Eighth Air Force under the 4th Fighter Group, based in Debden, Essex. The 4th was the first fighter group to penetrate German airspace, the first to escort bombers over Berlin, and led the first shuttle mission from England to Russia. Under the indomitable leadership of Colonel Don Blakeslee, they became the highest scoring unit of the USAAF, destroying 1,016 enemy aircraft in the air and on the ground.
    In this campaign you will join the 4th Fighter Group during the first week following the D-day landings, and relive every mission they flew exactly the way they happened 80 years ago. These were meticulously recreated based on original documents and personal accounts with a keen focus on the finest details, allowing you to firsthand experience what it was truly like to take part in ‘The Mighty Endeavor’, one of the greatest military operations in history.

    Hey Wolfpack! DCS P-51 Pilot here, I see you fighting her just a bit in the cruise out to the target. The Mustang has a wonderful 3 axis trim (Rudder, Elevator, and Aileron) You can trim her to almost hold perfect level flight in trim so work her up after take off and trim her up and she's a true pilots aircraft. She should treat you very nicely in formations even with a load! Love the content my friend! Love seeing you venture into DCS more frequently!

    Dive bombing in a warbird is a skill I have yet to master. I don't have the P-51D yet, I have the Jug and the Mosquito. Both are similar tactics but with different variables. The faster the better in the Jug, the slower works best with the Mossi. I know they both have "bombing computers" but those are as basic as you can get. Nice job all the way around. Reflected really outshined himself with this campaign.

    I thought there was no dogfights on D-day but I know that reflected did his research so I guess it's quite far away from the LZ?
    PS: BTW maybe you know that late war wehrmacht joke? Goes like this: "How do you recognize aircrafts? Well if it's brown and green then it's british, if it's sylver then it's US, and if there is no plane at all, then it's the luftwaffe!" ;)

    • @ReflectedSimulations
      @ReflectedSimulations 8 місяців тому +1

      The reason why only 2 190s were seen over the beaches is because all the fighter groups worked to the east to block off the Luftwaffe. There were plenty of dogfights that day and many great pilots lost their lives.

From the top of your head do you recall how the dogfight went IRL, was some of the mustangs we play list? Did they get any kill? You didn't upload anywhere what were the outcome of the 11 missions you recreated? I'd be curious to read that.

I do wish I could afford pedals for them though, its very hard to taxi without the toe brakes

    Has anyone else noticed that videos originally uploaded in 1080p get divided into 1080p enhanced bitrate (for premium subscribers) or budget 1080 for those who don't want to and very rightly shouldn't pay for "premium pixels"? Any video uploaded in QHD or above is freely available with no "pay extra" option for resolution. I've seen this coming for a couple of years at least but soon YT will be charging extra for content based on the tier or resolution you are willing to shell out for.
