I was making my 2nd spotless run over an enemy airfield when I notice Killhound in his enemy B24s just below me. I saw our paths might intersect, but I was dead set on keeping my head in the Norton sight. GaBoom!! I lose a drone and quickly reset my salvo to compensate. I pin point my target and drop, and immediately go to my tail guns, but no threat there. I grab my nose gun position, all the while my formation is pinging from lead all over, and see Killhound is 800 of my low 1 oclock (no tracers)
I start standing on my fire button and see all 3 of his 24's light up like Christmas trees!
From that point on, it was the wackiest formation versus formation battle that I have ever had, including at least one almost HO pass in which I lost another drone, but on each pass I saw his 24s get lit up for some pretty good wallops
Finally, I lost all aileron control and retreated the best I could using rudder, elevator and throttle. I made it home to my field and on the runway just after I received the confirmed message on 2 of Killhound's 24s.
I am thinking this gonna be epic when I land these...... and the dang B17 won't stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I brought her down so smoothly that she rolled off the runway and back up in the air for an instant and then without aileron help.............
Well, I sure botched that up ...... GaBLAM!!!! TOWER!!!
Killhound that made my day. In this instance the no tracers was a plus!
