I really need a better computer so I could play this instead of my laptop

PBY in the Caribbean, why rough it

DerAdlerIstGelandet · May 26, 2005

Im with FLYBOYJ here. You guys go an fight the war and me and him will sit back look at chicks and drink Pina Coladas!

It would have to be Europe, due to the fact if you ever had to bail out or make a forced landing your chances of survival are higher. The Pacific was mostly water, so your main options are drowning, being eaten by sharks, getting picked up by the Japenese or just floating around and dying of dehydration. Even if you are over land, there is hardly anywhere to put down, too many trees. Africa, It's a freakin' desert for gods sake!!.
Screw the nice weather, I want to live!!

And please explain how the Carribean would not be better. There are plenty of islands to land on within distance from where you are. The weather is good. There are beautiful women. There are cocktail drinks.

I'm with you - weekends off, maybe we'll have to drop a couple of depth charges on a sub or something during the week! 8)

Good point, reserve me a deckchair! I'll have my cocktail in a coconut shell, with one of those paper umbrellas sticking out the top! 8)

Sure, come on down, I think Barbados or Key West would make a great first deployment.

Can I land me P-38 there?

DerAdlerIstGelandet · May 26, 2005

We can build up something like McHales Navy, as long as I get to coach the Baseball team.

ETO at night .....

DerAdlerIstGelandet · May 26, 2005

Interesting choice. I think that would be quite exciting there Erich. If I were to do that I would want to fly a Ju-88C-6 or He-219A-7.

BombTaxi · May 26, 2005

I'd go for ETO, flying a Tiffy or Mustang with 2nd TAF. That would satsify my adrenaline cravings, and I could still be home for tea Failing that, B17s in Europe

Erich · May 26, 2005

Eagle there were no He 219 A-7's in the units. It stopped at the A-2.

DerAdlerIstGelandet · May 26, 2005

Ah I did not know that. I thought they were built in small numbers and operational.

Erich · May 26, 2005

it's really funny because at one time I thought A-5's and A-7's were filling the bill for I./NJG 1 but was not the case. I really do think that there were more prototypes built than operational Uhu's. Ridiculous.

the older books of all sorts have not done indepth research on the craft and hopeful when a freind from Holland does his I./NJG 1 synopsis that all will be revealed.

DerAdlerIstGelandet · May 26, 2005

Okay good stuff, then I am not the only one who atleast thought this.

the lancaster kicks ass · May 26, 2005

yes i've always notised how many prototypes the germans always made, we got by on 3 or 4, but the germans made 30+!!

mosquitoman · May 26, 2005

ETO I'd have a Mossie doing the nightly run to Berlin with a cookie
