P-40E BOMBER ESCORT TRAINING

Some of these fighter-bombers (560 of
them) that went to the RAF performed
bomber escort for the "Hurribombers."
This training mission is for practice
only.

              YOUR MISSION

Take off from the airfield and lead
your flight of four P-40s up to escort a
group of Hurricanes to their target: oil
storage tanks.  Once you reach the
bombers, fly a wide zig zag pattern in
front of them while you scan the sky for
enemy interceptors.

Several waves of Luftwaffe aircraft will
attempt to intercept both the Hurricanes
and your fighters.  Protect the bombers
all the way to the target and then escort
them back to Allied airspace until you
begin to run low on fuel.

Your mission will not end automatically.
You must choose to quit.  Please see your
reference guide for instruction on how to
quit, as well as information on other
controls.
