A friend of mine, Simon Herbert, writes historical fiction (Wings over Cairo) about Beaufighters in the desert, so I'll share this with him. Thanks very much!

Thanks for sharing. That is a very interesting and detailed report. Air attacks on naval vessels using 1/300th, or 1/600th scale minis can be great fun, at least for the aerial pilots. I suspect less so for the naval crews, unless they are very well armed, or sailing as a group. For the Bay of Biscay, you can add in U-Boats as targets, and give them Ju-88Cs for top cover too, to try to keep the Mossies, Beaus, and other British aircraft away. |

Lots of good scenario building material. Including intense AA fire from the "Guns of Navarino". Someone should make a movie. Phil |
