Robert,nice report and video.
Olham,stay sharp, I hope your victory is confirmed.

I have come to one conclusion. I am not a very good combat pilot. Karl was on a friendly airfield patrol with Voss and 2 others. I spotted friendly Archie and wondered if Voss would engage. He soon answered my question and the whole flight turned. There were 3 Spads and I was tail end Charlie. It seemed Voss changed his mind and turned away but I had a Spad coming up on my tail. I had no choice but to engage. After a few passes I got the better of him and sent him spinning down and crashing into the dirt. Being at low altitude I climbed out when I noticed my flight landing at the field we had been circling. Turning to join, a Triplane shows up out of no where. I was out flying him and getting some telling shots but every time I tried to disengage, he still wanted to have a go. Closing on his tail, I opened fire at close range to finish it. He pulled up and I went relight into him.


Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear or a fool from either end.
