B25 Carrier Op - Nagasaki

[ZK-MAT]

Saturday evening on Inspire we decided to take the B25's off the carrier and conduct a bombing run over Nagasaki.

Here are some surveillance pics, they've been cropped and resized/reduced for those on dial up

THAT IS ABSOLTELY BRILLIANT ! .... Big E on the side funnel ! not the Enterprise but CV-3 USS Saratoga .

Pity the 25s wore British Markings , secret plan to confuse the Japanese

Great formation pis .....

Hehe, we didn't really get the markings right, some wore individual repaints which for some reason didn't come through so they looked standard to everyone else. I had RAF markings ... from the earlier mission, forgot to change them
