Polish Escort

Mk III Mustangs of No. 315 (Polish) City of Deblin Squadron, escort Lancaster Bombers over the Dutch Coast during the summer of 1944, as they are led by Capt. Eugeniez Horbyzewski (nicknamed "Dzubek"), Poland's 3rd highest scoring ace in W W II (16 1/2 victories). This print is a tribute to the Polish Airman who fought the Nazis longer than any other Allied Air Force. It is not widely known that the Polish Air Force was the third largest air force of the western allies, and that one Polish Squadron (No. 303) was the highest scoring Allied squadron during the Battle of Britain.

Designer Notes
I have tested an airstart with a formation of Lancasters and was successful the first three tries in the above load out. This should not be a problem for the average player.
