(1 Focke Wulf Fw190 destroyed)

 

I was flying Orange 4 and No. 2 F/O Eagleson, one the 190’s made a violent diving turn to Port and I was well positioned to dive away after him. The E/A held the dive and just when I was in range he turned starboard. I fired a burst and the 190 straightened up and went into a gentle dive. I followed firing several bursts from 500 yds down to 300 yds in line astern. I saw pieces fly off the E/A and it dived straight into the deck. I saw a large cloud of dirt or debris rise. I pulled up and endeavored to regain my No. 1. 

 

I claim 1 F.W.190 Destroyed.
