On 7 October 1940, Pilot Officer Ken W. Mackenzie of No. 501 Squadron RAF used his Hawker Hurricane to destroy a Messerschmitt Bf 109. His Combat Report read, "I attacked the three nearest machines in vic formation from beneath and a fourth enemy aircraft doing rear-guard flew across the line of fire and he developed a leak in the glycol tank... I emptied the rest of my ammunition into him from 200 yards but he still flew on and down to 80, to 100 feet off the sea. I flew around him and signalled him to go down, which had no result. I therefore attempted to ram his tail with my undercarriage but it reduced my speed too low to hit him. So flying alongside I dipped my starboard wing-tip onto his port tail plane. The tail plane came off and I lost the tip of my starboard wing. The enemy aircraft spun into the sea and partially sank...".
Ah those crazy lads in No.501

This guy needs to quit smoking LOL

Well I'm now a triple ACE this being my 15th full kill. I have a few halfs and a few damaged A/C under my belt. I've been shot down once and forced landed 3 times. I must have hit something just right because a 0.5 sec burst did this.

He must have REALLY wanted that kill! Probably got fed up with all the shoulder shooting and kill-stealing!
