Yep BigRat once again we come in like angels from on high and smite the evil demons.
Seriously that was a good fight. Glad we got the chance to meet up again.
I knew that was a blue plane squad by the way you were fighting
. My worst fear was that we would run into a higher group of blue planes from a blue plane squad and immediately have to fight defensively, pushing us down and into a even worse position. Once realizing the situation I tried to take blue flight (5 of us) north to gain alt before trying to re-engage. Of course you guys didn't want to have that and chased most of us down before we could do that. By the time I finally got co-alt I think I was dragging 3 and the rest of blue flight was RTB shot up, and one discoe, fortunately one of my squaddies Kansas, from another flight, showed up and we started a bit of a melee. I managed to grab a hold of one hellcat's tail, but his wingman wouldn't let me chew on it very long, ended up switching between the two a few times. Finally landed some good hits on one of them, part of tail and a fuel hit if I remember right (managed to get it home I see
). I let him dive away since I had two approaching from 1.5k or less. Looked around and saw no friendlies. Split S'd under the pair and tried to disengage, fortunately you guys let me
. B25's were called out low at the troop factory, so headed that way. Got a kill and a partial , and was cannons dry and low bb's so RTB'd.
You guys, pretty much took my flight out of the fight, good job

PS isn't there a rule against putting a hog trainer on the Japanese side
