    Well done Andy - great flying, one more and you've cleared your sector
    Unlucky Dan, sounds like you took a beating in that scrap but you bagged one so that must be a consolation.

    Thanks Flash. Not sure quite what the armourer has loaded into these guns.

    Great flying yourself, as long as Malachi doesn't look up you'll be fine.

    Over the Briny Turn 9

    Hammering at his guns, Sauerkraut doesn’t realize he is losing altitude as his Phoenix dives...or does have a cunning plan?
    Gangleader147 watches carefully and turns sharply towards SauerKraut.

    Malachi turns right while Flash turns left. Blind Hans giggles with glee and fires off a close range burst at Malachi’s tail.

    Karo7 dives again trying to get into position to help his wingman.

    Sauerkraut stalls trying to get Gangleader147 to overshoot his position.
    Gangleader147 turns wide left, appearing to be cooperating.

    Over the Briny - Turn 11

    Flash turns away from his pursuer Malachi.

    Malachi in frustration starts an Immelmann as he cannot turn right. In his last exchange with Flash his rudder jammed, refusing to let him give chase.

    Karo7 takes advantage of Malachi’s position and gets in a shot.
