General Report | ||
I was MITOR Leader in a high-altitude patrol between Geleen and Aachen. When arriving over Geleen I spotted a formation of 6 bandits. The dogfight lowered quickly in altitude and I ended up chasing a "longnose" Focke-Wulf for several minutes in very tight turns and manoeuvres unable to bring my guns to bear. The hun managed to separate and tried to climb, but I was able to catch him in the peak at very slow speed. I scored some very good hits with the canons all over the aircraft setting it ablaze. | ||
