Biggles Downunder and I had our first game with the new planes the other night. He flew the Hanover with an escort of one fokker razor and I had a couple of Frog Nieuports. He was doing a recon of a couple of targets on my side. I had an AA gun and an AAA machine gun too. The Razor did not seem to be flying close escort so both my birds headed for the Hanover. That thing can really fly. Fast, fairly maneuverable and it can do an immelman! I tried to Boom and Zoom but the rear guns hit me on the way past and killed my first plane. With my second plane I attacked him from the rear quarter and then headed off at full speed with the intention of doubling back for another run but he was just as fast as me and I could not shake him off my six! Second plane down and a total victory to my opponent who also managed to get his photographs
Conclusion: Plan well when fighting this plane. Sell the N28's to the USA. Try Bristols next time
