Subject: Providing escort to the english coast
Great sight! 14 Bf109´s leave their cradle.
On our way to the Rendevous-point.
While forming above our bombers, the Brits arrived
from opposite directions!One group of Spits approached from
the british isle (absolute no surprise <g>),
the other group from the sea! The way we came along minutes ago (that was
a surprise!). Immediatly the hell broke loose when we engaged the Spits.
Due their efforts to kill our buffs, the Spits
often ignored our 109´s and dove to their preys.
I achieved no kill at all!
But i was very close <G>.
Ping No.1
Targets enough! But the Spits avoided every one-2-one-fight.
They were as slippery as soap.
Ping No. 2
Again no kill........ <grumble>
Ping No. 3
The Bomber losses were heavy. We lost 3 109´s due to ack-fire and crashes.
