Gbadsen scores a hit on the Me 110 at 12:00 low while the bandit trades fire with Gbadsen, missing and flying away. Daehawk hits one of the Me 109s coming in from 12:00 high but the fighter continues the attack along with a second Me 109 but they both miss and buzz past the bomber. The Me 109 ace approaching from 12:00 level lands some hits on the bomber but no damage was done. As he passes the Sally he comes under Zenn7's guns which score a solid hit on the fighter. The ace is able to maintain control of his plane, even with the damage he suffered and will be coming around for another pass at the bomber. The Me 109 approaching from 10:30 level punches holes in the wing and flight deck and shrapnel hits the landing gear controls. The consequences of the hit won't be known until the Sally attempts to land, assuming she makes it home. The two aces come around to try for a kill...
Daehawk scores a hit on the ace at 3:00 high but the ace is determined to try and bring down the bomber. Determination isn't enough though as he misses and banks away. Gbadsen and TheMix concentrate on the other fighter which disintegrates in a hail of bullets.
The Luftwaffe isn't done with the Sack Time quite yet though as a third wave of fighters pounces on the formation.
Raydude hits the fuel tank of the Fw 190 but no explosion occurs, probably due to the self-sealing tanks. The fighter peppers the nose with shells and shrapnel along with the bomb bay. Some flying pieces of metal hit the turret hydraulic system but they built it tough and there's no damage. The bomb bay is hit as well but luckily for the crew the bombs have already been dropped. The fighter turns off after his run, figuring it was good enough. Another Me 109 at 12:00 level trades fire with Daehawk. Daehawk misses but the fighter lands a solid hit. The bomb bay gets more holes with no effect but Raydude gets a piece of shrapnel in his gluteus muscle
ie shot in the ass but he's no worse for wear. An Me 109 comes in from 1:30 level and misses. As it passes behind the Sally, Zenn7 takes a passing shot at him but is unable to land his shot. The ace also misses and flies off. Gbadsen and TheMix hit the cockpit of the bandit at 3:00 level and the pilot slumps dead at the controls as it dives into the Italian countryside. The Me 109 that wounded Raydude comes around for another attack at the nose but a pissed off Raydude hits him in the fuel tank which explodes. (sorry no pic). Finally the other attacking bandits leave the formation and a battered Sack Time Sally makes it's way closer to the sea.
As the leave the target area, NickAragua drops the plane to 10,000 feet so DocD has a chance against losing body parts to frostbite. Random flak targets the plane since they're flying at a lower altitude but they escape unscathed and eventually make it over the Adriatic. There's a bit of a lull so ammunition is redistributed among the gunners in anticipation of more fighters attacking the bomber. And over the sea they are not disappointed...
