London's Burning 2

August 14th.

Only one raid today at 2pm. Two Me 109's, a Dornier, and a Junkers Ju 88 approach from the southeast. Problem is they're at 20,000 feet. My Spitfire and Hurricane had been patrolling in the morning, but due to their increasing fatigue I had them sitting on the airfield when the raid was detected. So, by the time I had scrambled my fighters and had them up to 10,000 feet, the Germans had dropped their bombs on Manston and were on their way back to France. One positive was that since they were so high the Germans did minimal damage which was repaired easily enough that evening.
