FSCAI Video: Luftwaffe Airstrike on RAF Hawkinge 13-AUG-40

Here is the video of last night's full FSCAI mission - startup to landing, no cuts.

I accompany a flight of Bf-109s escorting two flights of HE-111 bombers on a cross-channel strike against the RAF airfield at Hawkinge on opening day of the AdlerAngriff.

If you're impatient the action starts at 22:00 minutes in, but I recommend the full video if you have the time. Some explanations as we wait for the arrival of the flights.

Contains a spectacular view of 80 250KG bombs falling on the airfield destroying buildings, AAA, and some aircraft; followed by multiple dogfights with Spitfires, and showcases my poor aiming abilities and generally lackluster dogfighting skills. But I am getting better - thanks to FSCAI.
