There are some videos from that fight currently being edited, hopefully will be on you-tube this weekend!!
I was in the middle of this fight! Was a great experience! I dove on a 109 which was on a Spitfire´s 6 and he broke when he saw my tracers. I zoomed up and dived again, this time I got plenty of hits and he dived away. It was all confusion and planes EVERYWHERE while I was trying to find something to shoot at as they passed in front of me. Suddenly the sky was empty from one second to another. I found some planes further out and assisted 2 Spitfire chasing a lone 109 running home. With my extra energy I caught him and gave him a burst, he broke hard and I zoomed up and it became a 1vs1 for 2mins as we started scissoring. I got some hits in him around the cockpit area and he suddenly dived vertically but I had no time to see whether he hit the sea below or not.
Low on fuel I decided to dive home. On my way I found 3 109s just above sea level in line astern formation. I waited until they were just below me and dived on the last one and opened up with my guns within 200 yards. He started smoking from both wings and his radiators. I turned around and aimed for the English coast and landed at Hawkinge where my wingman(brother) Klingan just landed 20 secs before me.
All in all a great sortie and very immersive!
WTG Storm of WAR!
