Dear pilots,

We apologize for the blank newsletter today. For the first time since we started the newsletters we suffered a glitch in the delivery process. We hope it will be the first and last! We are working to fix this asap.

In the meantime, here are some screenshots of the upcoming DCS: Supercarrier!

We apologise for the hiccup and trust you will have a wonderful weekend.

Sincerely,
The Eagle Dynamics Team
