@Spirit the gentleman behind the flip-flop at 3:00 should be forced to fly the Tiger Moth in a bright pink paint-scheme as he puts himself and people around him in danger.

The flippity flop is an inherent part of air combat where one's only defesive manouver is pulling on the stick as if in a silly attempt of desperate circumsission. You should be happy that you weren't 50 yards closer and you'd both end up hitting each other, like it often happens.

Those two Hurricanes dropping in on you from contrail height like avenging gods of British tea collecting were KaiLae and myself. We were under orders not to chase any 109s who dove away so that Split-S was a good one. Our eagle-eyes kept track of a "lone 109" buzzing about our squadron for the next 30 minutes. We were wondering what you were up to!

Not sure who the flippity-flopper was. It was definitely 615 contrailing.

I actually recorded our mission on Shadowplay but it messed up (kept flickering between Cliffs and the background screen?), so unfortunately we'll never see it.

The mission from a Zerstörer perspective. We hit Kenley and Biggin Hill.
