Aerial duel over Camarillo
Mon Dec 08, 2008 12:18 pm
During the Pearl Harbor event at Camarillo over the weekend, there was quite an aerial duel.
Bogie spotted, its a ZERO! Bearcat and Hellcat scrambled for intercept.
As the Hellcat closes, the Zero takes evasive action.
The Zero takes a HIT!
Still trying to get away...
The Hellcat closes for the kill shot.
The final pass to commemorate those lost at Pearl Harbor and following.

Nice photos, might be a better contest if the Zero were to use more than a 30 degree bank angle in evading.
