I played a WWII air combat game called check six. The mission was intercepting a squadron of unescorted B-17's. I took my fighter on a head on pass on the
lead B-17 and missed. did an Immehlman diving loop and then fired a burst on the tail end charlie. Only got one hit. On the bomb bay. Which blew up the B-17.
Whose debris caused a whole series of sympathetic detonations to the neighboring B-17's. When the smoke was cleared, 5 out of 7 initial B-17's blew up
and the other 2 had to turn back due to severe damage. Instant ace!
We had a good laugh after the game..especially since it was the first time I played it. Crazy luck of the draw.
