June 8th RCAF WW2 Era Dogfight - Skies Of Tomorrow in Extropia (part 1)

During the weekend of June 7th and 8th, The Royal Caledon Air Force gathered in Extropia's Skies of Tomorrow sim and engaged in WW2 Era combat over sims Dirac Sea and Future Current.

Here are a few snapshots showing Vidal "Trip" Tripsa flying her P-40 from THI. Trip attempts to evade the formidable Jessicas Falls who is flying Darsh Lucero's P-51 Mustang....

The photographs and video I have from the weekend do not do the events justice. I've never seen anything like this in SL before. Many times the sky was filled with airplanes in battle and it gave me a taste for what air combat may have looked like during World War Two. I had the feeling of being inside an episode of History Channels Dogfights TV series.
