Nothing there Cajunn.  The file link should look like the one I posted.  (Mine is one real lucky shot.  About 1:24 into the film.)

One of my most faverite night in AH. I got about forty kills in my 110-o-death that night and was VOX PMed twice saying that I was cheating and no one is that good in a 110. This one was just a lucky snapshot trying to clear a squaddie before the spit/hurri horde came back again.

Popped a diving lancaster at 3.5k moving perpendicular to my Sherman.  Can't say I've ever made that kind of shot in a plane.   :lol

Don't have it on film but a high pony merged with me, he got scared 1/2 way into the vert and dove down to run. Nosed over the top and popped him 1 ping with my 20mm in my 38J. :cool:

My luckiest snapshot was in Rangoon 2008.  Dove on a Hurricane and took a brief snapshot while he was way under my nose.

This guy crossed my windscreen as I was chasing a 38 to the deck...got two pings: 1 to the cockpit, 1 to the mid-fuselage.  I was in a 190A-5.  Hooray for cannons. He blew up a sec later.

My mistake (a typo) -- it was Rangoon 2008 (not Rangoon 2004).
