    Comments:
    Scramble F22 since cons were otw from F2. Soon we engaed an
    I-16 who dived away into the montains, i followed as he crashed into the top of a montain getting the maneuver kill.
    After that we went to F30 where heino sneaked into a sleeping P40 shooting it in flames. Later on i shotdown another I-16 after heino's drag.
    We kept on patrol until my had engine problems (disco) so heino returned home safe.

    Nice sortie and good mission outcome: 3 kills and no losses.
