BACKGROUND
In 1941 the British forces invaded Vichy French controlled Lebanon and Syria (an area known to the French as the Levant) to prevent the Luftwaffe using Vichy airbases to supply Iraqi rebels and threaten Allied oil supplies. This campaign has been written from the Vichy side, flying a D520. All 6 missions are based on real combat actions involving Groupement de Chasse III/6 and unfold in historical sequence. Most are based on the exploits of French ace Pierre le Gloan and his 5eme escadrille - the plane you fly is in the historical colours of his ship. Some missions have random elements so they do not all unfold the same way every time.
Please enjoy the package.
