Nice to see this one still limping along, unlike that amputee-on-the-run thread.
One thing this incident clearly demonstrates, is that if man were meant to fly, he’d have wings!

It happens. Almost had the same disaster at Fredinand Marcos Internatiomal Airport Manila during his regime, during rainy takeoff one day—fully loaded D-C10. Too close for comfort!

I heard his interview on BBC.
A Fokker came from my underside and I shot him down, did a loop and shot another one from my right side, 3 more Fokkers came out of the clouds...etc...etc...etc..
A very nervous BBC announcer wiped his brow and said “A Fokker is a German Aircraft etc etc”
“NO NO”, the ace interrupted
“ALL THOSE FOCKERS WERE MESSERSCHMITT’s”
