    ME110`s Lightly toasted

    Nothing to fear from these babies.
    They may have big guns, but they're no match for a yak....


    So here they are picking on our poor defenceless ground crews. Thats big of them innit?...



    OK so our ground crews are not so defenceless, and open up with their AAA.
    They get close, but these 110's are fast and difficult to get a bead on.



    So I get on his 6. Mind you these can be slippery buggers with the air room. Using the rudder and twin engine to good effect, it's hard for a lot of fighters to get in a steady stream of lead. Meanwhile his rear gunner is having a pop at you.




    Then I got a quick burst in, oppositely opposed, he's breaking right, I'm strafing left. He's in a tight barrel roll, and I'm finding it hard to say on him at all.
    I'm hoping to damage his controls, and put his gunner off, while trying to stay on the gunners blind side, up under the tail where he's not got a clear shot.
    An explosion in his engine cowling shows that a cannon shell has found its mark.



    At 410kph and 400m up, things are happening very fast. I waste a little more ammo before taking my finger off the trigger, the struggle to control my plane taking my mind off the fact that ammo is precious. I do appreciate for a split second that his engine is well and truely done for, and that his controls are probably haywire as mine.



    As I bring things back under control, I look back to see the 110 still struggling.
    Poor bugger is trying to eject at 300m, I can just see his cowl pop off. Not a chance at this speed and height.



    I pity him in a way, blind panic has obviously set in and he's given up trying to gain control. Bad move, if he'd been more experienced, he'd have realised he stood a better chance to try and and get an emergency landing in.
    I'd have even escorted him down. :whist:
