My night ended early. I thought I pulled off clear of the bombers. Guess not. :)

was nice to have the buffs a little tighter this frame LOL
At least from the AL point of view.

Darn, the collision must have been with the very wingtip of the bomber. Sometimes buffs are hard to avoid when closing at over 500 mph TAS ;-)

Video footage from the end of sortie 1, with a bomber straggling behind and Messerschmitts coming in to try to down it.





Cheers!

Thanks for the video Robert. I believe that was a few of the 352nd chasing Gundoc. Nice work keeping us off him. Hate to let a bomber escape but you guys kept the pressure on. Red broke his wing diving away from a couple defenders. Bad things happen when you get the Messerschmidt diving over 500mph ;)

Rgr sir, made for a thrilling chase for sure. Yep the Schmitt' can only dive at 487 mph before wingbreak. Also a big <S> for putting up a furious resistance with small numbers. Destroying those bridges in frame 2 apparently messed up German fuel transports.
