1943 Mission AARs - Previous A/C A Hunting We Will Go lost on Leverkusen Mission
Mission 11 -
Mission 12 - Did not fly. Excused abort
Mission 13 -
Mission 14 - Our maintenance Crew needs a good talking to. Shortly after take-off our Pneumatic systems went out causing our landing gear to be inoperable. While in the following sector out Hydraulic systems went out. While able to complete our mission. Landing was a harrowing experience with no landing gear. Fortunately, it was accomplished with no injuries, and while extensive damage was done to our aircraft, I'm told it will be repairable.
Mission 17 - Made it to the target easy enough. Then all Hell broke out. Flak took the Pilot's oxygen. Another hit the port fuel tank. Four zones later, the crew had to ditch due to a fuel leak. Thankfully, entire crew eventually made it back safely.
