Blackfyre Fighter

The time passed and they crossed into Azoran airspace. The pilots were quiet, the only sounds was the whistling air and the rumble of the engines. MacCraig felt his nerves rising in his gut. It was very quiet. Suddenly a Luftwehr plane dove out of the blue, its machine guns rattling.
“BREAK!” cried MacCraig. He banked hard to port, searching the sky for the bandit. “I don’t have eyes on him!” “Ten O’clock!” came Bull.
“I see him,” said Winter. MacCraig watched Winter’s plane dive after the enemy fighter. She got on his tail. There was a burst of red tracers from Winter’s guns. He didn’t see if she hit as another plane appeared behind Houston.
“Wolf-Seven! Check your six! You got one on your tail!” cried MacCraig, banking to get on the bandit’s tail. He had just come around when a burst of green erupted from the bandit. A fireball tore apart the plane and the bandit took a tight turn to starboard.
“Damn it! Wolf-Seven is down,” reported MacCraig. He kept close the enemy plane. The bandit wove through the air. MacCraig watched his reticle like a hawk. The enemy crossed the reticle. He gave the bandit a squirt. Sparks confirmed the hit, but the enemy rolled 180 degrees and dove into a loop. MacCraig copied the manoeuvre. He lined up his reticle again. His finger anxiously hovered over the trigger button. He saw his opportunity. His guns rattled. Sparks flew from the fuselage and white smoke appeared. He waited as the bandit drop into a corkscrew and crashed into the deck. MacCraig levelled out.
