General Report

I was Leader of a two-ship section. Over the enemy tank positions a couple of our fighter-bombers which were attacked by a single Bf 109. After one pass the Bf 109 fled heading 270. I gave chase and quickly closed the distance. The 109 flew mostly straight. In my first pass I fired a short burst behind scoring a few good hits, then climbed and made another pass to finish it off.
