Not sure how many of you have seen any of the episodes of the Discovery
Channel's Dogfights but, I was just watching one of "Swede" Vejtasa out
dogfighting 3 Jap Zeros in an SBD Dauntless. Then, it ends with him
shooing down 7 zeros in another dogfight while flying a Grumman
Hellcat.
The next episode was of a B-17 "Old 666" taking on 17 Jap Zeros in a
dogfight.

'tis a good series. I was watching one about the Arab-Israeli 7-day war I
had on Tivo this morning. Apparently not only did the Israeli's get the
first three kills using an F-15 in 1979 they did it using three different
methods (heat-seaking missle, radar missle, guns) in one engagement. Not
only that they've gone on to rack up 50+ kills since with 0 F-15s lost. Not
bad. Reason #724 I love Tivo...
