    Graugans breaks hart right to get rid of flash and reveals Marechallannes. Flash opens fire immediately on Marechallannes, who dives to evade. Teaticket shoots on Graugans.

    Teaticket continues with his attack run. Graugans can escape with a spontaneous right turn, but Marechallannes has less luck and is hit.

    Unfortunately I have overseen a correction Graugans sent me after his first maneuvers for turn six, because of the intermission. Actually he wanted to fly a Split-S combination. But he was so generous, to not insist in redoing the whole turn and go on. So don’t sent me corrections they will be ignored

    Turn 7-1: First double damage!

    Sauerkraut turns long left. Camelbeagel climbs to get him in range and opens fire. Graugans welcomes camelbeagel
    on altitude four with the first double damage of the game!

    @Sven: thank you for the correction with the tailing. I have overseen the negative altitude difference.

    @Andrzej: there will be a second game. I have already two inquiries for the participation. I think the scenario will be on the Austro-Italien front. Maybe the "Looking down!" Scenario were a Caproni has to stay up to six turns above the enemy's side. This would be a four player game (or seven with the early war scouts ). But I am not sure, if a scout vs. scout scenario is more fun. Flying a Caproni isn't much entertaining, isn't it?

    Sorry, I've mad a mistake in 7-3 with Graugans maneuvers and placed a 16 (sideslip) instead of a 6 (right turn). Here is the updated situation:

    Never heard of him. His accent is very hard to understand for me. By the way: I saw the "Inside No.9" series a few weeks ago. Most episodes were fantastic, but some scenes were just weird for my taste (the bottom-steak and the guy with his photographic laboratory). This series expanded my understanding of British Black Humor.

    Graugans and Teaticket go on collision course. Both fire their guns at close range. Both planes take massive damage, but Graugans’ fuselage got too much and disintegrate. Marechallannes sees his wingman going down, pulls up and shoots in the back of Teaticket to take revenge. Teaticket takes further damage, but his Camel stays in the air. Flash also pulls up, and makes an aimed salvo on the long distance on Marechallannes, to protect his wingman Teaticket. A loud crack can be heard. Marechallannes plane is a cloud of wood splinters and scrap of cloth, but is also still flying. Sauerkraut uses the opportunity to fire from above on flash. Camelbeagel is watching the scene in his back from the distance.

    Marechallannes turns hard right, to accompany his only wingman left and almost crash into flash. Camelbeagel makes an Immelmann and opens fire on Marechallannes, who is hit by a graze.
