Combat reports

Very nice model!

I too find combat reports very interesting to read. They're about as close to the real thing as we ever (want to) get.

Worth mentioning the source of the report, as Mike Williams has made a tremendous effort scanning, typing and uploading scores of P-51, P-47, Tempest and Spitfire reports to his excellent website at: http://www.wwiiaircraftperformance.org/
Also plenty of reading for the more technical minded. A truly superb website and well worth a thorough read if you haven't seen it before.

PS. I once had a telephone interview with a P-51 pilot describing his air combats and of course recorded it. A 10-minute recollection of his most thrilling dogfight can be heard here http://home.wanadoo.nl/r.j.o/skyraider/tigersrevenge_1.htm or here http://www.hyperscale.com/galleries/tigersrevengero_1.htm
