Today I spent the day with Rob (Rabscallion) at his 'drome for a day of Wings !
Having missed Bovi last weekend he was keen to get in the air and I was happy to oblige.. :guns:
We started with a two on two scout skirmish between a Nieuport 11, DH.2 combo and a pair of Alb D.III as a warm up - The allies were victorious but I neglected to get any pics.
I then broke out my latest Ca3 acquisition to be blooded and it did not let me down - we put it on auto and both of us attacked it with Phoenix D.Is...
First exchanges & we're both smoking !

Now I'm on fire ... wt...

and now I'm downed !

Leaving Rob to chase him down

And polish him off with a splendid 5+1 for 26 damage point total

Gluttons for punishment that we are we had another go - two fighters each v 2 Ca3 - what could go wrong ....
Well this for starters !
Attachment 271927
Rob has better luck
Attachment 271930
Between us we knock down first one - I got the credit
Attachment 271932
Then the other, Rob got the kill - that Ca3 got close to escaping !
Attachment 271933
So, what next ?! Yep - we went big !
I set it on fire with my ranging shot with the MG
Attachment 271934
Then I got the cannon working :slysmile:
Attachment 271935
Instead of reloading it I attacked with the MG as he was jammed.. but not long enough :erk:
Attachment 271936
Then Rob bought it (it's an AFB-1) - & the big 'un got away
Attachment 271937
We then scaled back to chasing a Hannover on auto pilot - it made for a crazy chase but was a load of fun - I set it on fire before succumbing myself
Attachment 271938
Rob finished it off but paid for it !
Attachment 271939
The second game went better - set him on fire on the first shot
Attachment 271940
and after another winding chase I put him away this time
Attachment 271941
Then it was time to go home, another day of Wings done - ready for Devizes at the weekend
Thanks for hosting Rob ;)
