A couple of screencaps from our last sunday session of the FAC (as always, we meet every sunday 2PM GMT on the SAS Gameserver, anyone is welcome!).
These images are just some quick snapshots from the "Ardennes '44" and "Korea reworked" missions.
Not necessarily artistically valuable, just showing off
Images straight from the game, unedited.

bb chasing an enemy Pony across the ardennes.
A dangerous manoeuvre as he's not aware of getting chased by the wingman in return.
Foreground: The AI wingman's Mustang
Center: bb
Backfround: bb's victim
After performing a couple of evasive manoeuvres, bb managed to let the AI wingman overshoot beneath him.
At first glance you could come to think he made it, albeit marginally...
... however he got hit badly, with a couple of fuel leaks but, lucky enough, still with full controls, so he decided to run back to base for repair ...
... and just to demonstrate that FAC pilots are imperfect too, bb decided to give the gound crew some work to do for the rest of the day:
The same for Storebror, who carelessly crossed a couple of AAA stations over enemy territory, eventually dismantling his 190 quite like bb did before:
Enough of the ardennes, another mission we flew on sunday was "Korea reworked" by skylla.
Here the Flying Ass Clowns once again demonstrate what it means to have fun, even if being unsuccessful all over.
Turk taking off from a carrier with an FJ-3 Fury, on the left end you see bb waiting for Turk to clear the deck. Looks good, so far...
...but unfortunately the takeoff speed was insufficient and Turk experienced a wet day:
bb trying to do better. Looks good as well, so far...
...but same as before, bb decided to go swimming too. Only later we discussed how clever it could be to use the carrier's catapult...
bomberkiller taking off from the main base. Looks good... wait... how about the airbrakes?
Lucky enough, he managed to get the bird airborne and remembered to retract the airbrakes later:
Same issue with Turk, he hardly could get his F-86F into the air when he forgot to retract his airbrakes too:
Storebror taking off from an airstrip far south, at least with airbrakes retracted
ede99 prowling the skies, searching for his target:
A group of friendly B-29, their formation looks much more profressional than ours ever did:
Ghost129er taking off for a "jackass" ground pounder mission:
Storebror arrived at his target, rocketing a couple of enemy trucks in a village near the frontline.
See the flak shell explode to the right? Looks like this one missed him, albeit marginally...
...turns out it was close enough:
Finally this was the chance for Storebror to demonstrate the ingenuity of catapults:
