Caveat Emptor

2. These scenarios may not be redistributed in any form for reward without the express consent of the abovementioned copyright holders.

3. These scenarios are taken directly from the historical record as far as is possible, unless otherwise noted as being my own flights of fancy. Thus no claims are made regarding play balance or enjoyability, but feedback and/or corrections on these matters is welcome. Questions, if you have any, whether on my rules or on the actions described, will also be answered to the best of my knowledge/ability.

4. Any and all additional/special rules included with these scenarios are unofficial. The inclusion of additional rules for existing aircraft types is not to be construed as a criticism of the original rules or ADCs. These rules add extra detail at the cost of some complexity, and are presented here in an attempt to add more flavor to the specific events being recreated.
