Battle of Britain, Black Thursday

This simulation recreates a scene from the 1969 Battle of Britain movie with more aircraft types and accurate aircraft variants. The day 15 Aug 1940 was referred to as "Black Thursday" by the Germans because of heavy losses. Four IL-2 missions were merged with 70 He 111s, 21 Bf 110Ds, 15 Spitfire Mk Is and 11 Hurricane Mk Is.

Disclaimers:
- The Bf 110D plywood and fabric external fuel tank, while designed to be droppable, probably was non-jettisonable. The rear gunners were left behind to extend range.
- Aircraft letters weren't displayed on the wings of the Do 17Zs during this mission.
- 79 squadron reported R/T (radio) was bad due to German interference.
