The Big E 44 is the name of the next installment of following the USS Enterprise thru WWII.It starts in November 1943 as Enterprise has finished her repairs and refit from her battles in the Solomons.This time she is not alone as the new Essex Class Fleet Carriers and the Independence Class Light Carriers join her.They are attacking in Gilbert and Marshall Islands from November to January.In November Makin is first with ground attacks and Japanese attacking the USN Fleet and the first night mission with an Avenger using radar guides Hellcats to attack Betty bombers,Butch O'Hare was lost during this mission.Ships in Kwajalein Harbor are attacked next.After that Taroa is attacked.The last attack is Kwajalein again in support of the Invasion.These are all finished.

The Next missions being worked on are the attacks on Truk Feb.17-18,1944.My son found a map that shows the different anchorages and also the number of Japanese planes stationed there.His plan is work on them over the Labor Day Weekend which is this weekend.

With the Marianas and Philippines missions he has about 37 missions,he just has to fill in the gap between Feb. and June 1944.

Nice to have a progress update.

Keep going Micheal, you're doing good work!!! 👍
He's using your scenery except for the Gilbert Islands.

It's taking along time because he has school and likes to play sports.He also notices the lack of interest.

Yeah things have slowed down since the move. I hope it's just poeple haven't caught up to the change yet. I'm interested though.

Not to worry Kurt,you'll get it as well as UT if he wants it.From what I understand there will be a night attack by Avengers on the ships.

Of course I'd be interested Hiede.

It's always nice to see if the various new/reworked sceneries manage to improve that elusive immersive feeling whilst flying missions ... or whether they really are just "eye candy"...

People don't talk much unless it's to complain and it's been going on for years now.If no one gives feed back how are mission and campaign builder going to know what is liked?Not to worry I'll just farewell say to SOH and be on my way.

Have a great day,bye

Don't know if you caught this one but I really liked it and feel that this post cast as a whole is exceptional. Certainly inspiring.
