On thii mnti we ha»e t lewsnoe ol ihoti lrom a Vicken Virginia (two Stpier Lion) taking part in the akittle-bombme event at the E.A.F. Ditplay oi 1935; a combat between a Boultou Paul Overatrand (two Briatol Pegasns) and Hawker Demom (Kollv-Koroe Kestnl); and an all-time elawc aaenrad in 1819 bom the mid-upper gunna'i poaition ol a Boulton Paul Bonrges (two Ai.C. Dragonfly) Did you feel a shade queasy in that turn? Then you're lucky not to find yourself in the front turret of that Overstrand up there.
