Entertaining video

Fun video and agree about the graphics. Also, AFAIK, the BC bombers were not flying in formation as would the USAAF B17s, but more like a steady stream; flying in close formation at night would be dangerous. Correct me Ted, but didn't the later Bf110's have only the pilot and Bordfunker? In CFS3, the pilot operates the 'schragemusik' cannon, and IIRC, the old back facing guns were removed?

James,

I am not sure about the removal of the third crew person. It would make sense as I have never read the defensive guns being useful against another nightfighter, have you? Also, I have read that they did fire at bombers, but again nevr credited for a kill or damage.

Just checked my Schnaufer biography for that night, and I see no mention of an aft gunner, only schragemusik and forward facing guns operated by Schnaufer.
