       We were just about to sit down and eat dinner when the airfield
       alarm began to sound. Someone yelled, "man your planes, enemy
       aircraft are headed our way." I ordered my section to their
       aircraft and we got into the air as soon as we could.

       sans-serif]It was not long and I sighted two groups of enemy
       bombers (Pe-2s) heading toward our airfield. I ordered the
       section (4x Fw-190s) to attack. We had the advantage, we were
       above them. I rolled my aircraft over and sighted an enemy plane
       and began my attack. I leveled off on his six o'clock position
       and opened fire. The enemy bomber dropped his bombs and then
       began to roll over to his left, quite uncontrollably. I saw it
       crash to the ground in a tremendous
       explosion.[/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/fon

       pulled up and sighted another enemy aircraft. I positioned my
       aircraft for another attack. Once again I was above my
       [/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][
       /font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]opponent.
       I pushed the throttle to the stop and rolled my aircraft over
       attacking from above. I was in range very quickly. I opened fire
       and saw my rounds impact the enemy's plane at the tail area. The
       entire tail plane separated from the enemy aircraft. I saw no
       parachutes prior to the plane crashing into the ground.

       I looked around, the first two enemy formations had been
       destroyed, however a third formation of enemy bombers tried to
       sneak in, using the clouds as cover, heading for our airfield.
       They were too far ahead of me to stop their attack. They were
       able to drop their bombs, destroying some airfield facilities
       and grounded aircraft. I ordered my section to attack the
       bastards.

       I turned my plane toward the attackers and hammered my throttle
       to the stop, almost pushing it out of its mount. I gritted my
       teeth swearing under my breath. I got within range of one the
       the enemy planes and opened fire. I hit the left engine nacelle
       setting it on fire. It was at this moment I felt my plane get
       hit by the enemy's return fire. I also started feeling a bit
       woozy and seeing red. Moments later the enemy's plane exploded
       in midair.

       My plane was still responsive and I myself was still able to
       fight. I pressed the attack. I sighted in another enemy bomber.
       I got within range and cut loose my guns and cannons once again.
       The rounds found their mark. The enemy aircraft rolled over and
       fell to the ground. I saw no chutes. Now with my guns empty I
       headed for home.
       I contacted the tower telling them to have the rescue trucks on
       stand-by. I was feeling quite a bit light headed now and the
       adrenaline from the combat was now wearing off. Pain was now
       becoming a factor. My right leg and arm had been hit by an enemy
       tail gunner, I was loosing blood fairly rapidly. I had to land
       soon. I got onto the final approach quickly, I was a bit fast at
       touch down. I let the plane roll out for as long as possible
       before I touched my brakes, this saved me from tipping over on
       my nose.
       I was able to coast to the ramp area where soon after the
       emergency trucks arrived and pulled me from my aircraft. I was
       treated on the ramp and then taken to the field hospital.

       Once again you have completed an excellent flight. With this
       mission you have closed this cycle of the FW-190 A4 for
       yourself, having survived in all the missions. Congratulations!
       You have finally managed to get back to the infirmary!  ;D
       ******
       Soon I will fly. As on other occasions, I would love someone
       else to step up. Greetings

       Actual Mission Name: Y2021 - Week 25 / ALARM!!!
       Date single mission actually flown: June 26, 2021
       Mission Score: 250
       Misc. Info if desired: Mission flown in BAT BLUE EDGE 4.1.3
       Results/description of mission: Two enemy planes sent to the
       snowy fields. I had a rough landing. I am alive.
       Debrief:
       Leading a group of four elements we carried out the patrol
       according to the route indicated on the map. Shortly before
       completing our first patrol circuit in the assigned area, I see
       two bomber formations heading for our base. These are the ones
       we were waiting for. I order my boys to go on the attack. Soon
       the first bomber formation is destroyed.

       After a first frontal attack on the second bomber formation
       (Pe-2), I get behind them, and here I make my big mistake. I
       assumed that by moving a lot I would avoid the sniper gunners of
       the bombers, but it was not like that. I was seriously injured.

       Before I lost consciousness, I had to decide quickly whether to
       jump or search for the base. I was bleeding out really fast. I
       decided to search for the base, knowing that I was not far from
       it. I looked back and forth several times, until finally I saw
       the light from the tower below my right wing. I felt lucky and
       decided to land immediately before passing out. While I was
       landing, bombs kept dropping on the base. I think the flaps on
       my plane were not working properly, as it cannot brake the
       plane, and I capped at the end of the runway. I jumped out of my
       plane with my last strength, ran a few meters and threw myself
       into the snow. I felt very sleepy and wanted to sleep. Shortly
       after I heard a motor approaching, it was the infirmary truck. I
       immediately heard a very familiar voice, it was her, Helga! From
       one moment to the next, hell turned into heaven!

       Mission: Week 25
       Mission Type: Scramble
       Date Flown: 21JUN21
       Callsign: Madmick 71
       IL2 Version: 4.13.1
       Mission Score: 1800
       Results: 4 x PE 2 Destroyed, 1 x PE8 Destroyed, 2 x PE 2
       Damaged.
       AAR:
       Received alert to scramble from ground observer- unknown
       Aircraft approaching from the east heading west towards our
       base. Took off climbing at full throttle in a gradual left hand
       climb to 6000ft. Leveled out with 3 other FW190's heading NE at
       about 5000ft. Large group of Enemy PE 2 Bombers were sighted two
       groups of  Aircraft and maybe a third. Our flight of FW190s
       broke into the bombers seeing our flight leader  down the lead
       PE 2 after a head on attack. I turned into the number two of the
       first flight approached from abeam closing within 200m firing a
       two second burst the PE 2 shed some debris and a fire started in
       the right hand engine. Some rounds from the rear gunner of
       another PE 2 slightly above hit my aircraft but no significant
       damage or change in flight behaviorr was noticed. I climbed and
       began a series of  attacks on the rear quarter of the second
       group of four. I managed to down  damaging the fourth before I
       broke off the attack and headed north climbing to 8000ft. A
       short time later I notice a single unknown large Aircraft at
       about 16000ft heading towards our base. I climbed at full
       throttle nearly overheating my engine to close within range to
       visually Identify the Aircraft. When directly over our base the
       unknown aircraft dropped  large bombs. This aircraft turned and
       headed east as I closed with 600m I identified the aircraft as a
       Soviet PE-8 heavy bomber. I closed from the rear left quarter
       level with the enemy bomber. Coming in fast I fired a one second
       burst before over shooting the target. I climbed to loose speed
       and attacked again from above. Firing another second burst I saw
       material come of the PE-8. I repeated the attack one last time
       firing for  secconds exhausting ammunition. I saw hits in the
       port engines, a fire started and then a wing separated. I claim
       a PE-8 Destroyed. I returned to base on fuel fumes landing
       safely. I saw that 4 BF110's had been destroyed on the ground
       along with fuel stocks and reserves on fire as a result of the
       PE 2's bombing.

       Congratulations Mick! You managed to place yourself in the first
       place thanks to your patience, good work and good sense of
       smell. You are so far the first to discover the arrival of that
       mysterious high-altitude bomber, after doing a good job under
       the clouds eliminating the Pe-2 bombers. Really excellent!
       Thanks again for your participation!

       Congrats Haukka and Mick for your successful missions ... very
       well done !!!
       Mick, looks like you won this weeks prize, free beer at the
       club. :)
       Haukka, you lucky devil, you got Helga looking after you and
       hear I thought I was her favorite. Imagine to my surprise when I
       woke up this morning and saw you laying in bed across from me in
       the dispensary with Helga feeding you in bed !!! She took one
       look at me and said, "You are healed enough to leave today,
       we're kicking you out, have a good day !!!" As I was leaving I
       looked back and she was still tending you with that wonderful
       smile of hers.  :)
