    Following an Immelmann which I failed to record I shot Neil down in a head to head.
    Unfortunately as his machine staggered from the sky, his return shots caused a catastrophic failure with the explosion card to my previously only slightly damaged machine.
    Considering the number of jams I had suffered I should never have even got that far. It was a very quick game.
    All things equal there then with an honourable draw.
    Rob.

    You should have seen what he did to me in the Frigate action that followed this. Unfortunately I took no photographs.

    Great game Rob. Thank you. Yes the frigate action was close and got closer still! In the true tradition of the senior service!
    See you on the Dark Side......

    Mutual annihilation!
    You were pretty unlucky Rob to get that Boom when you had riddled his Macchi so well with low damage to yourself.
    Oh well! That's War!

    Absolutely agree Baz.
    Se la vie, se la guerre.(Nearest I can get to a Gallic hand gesture and shrug.)
