The damage you've taken is causing your bird to jerk heavily to the right and the fuel's running low. You just hope you've got enough ammo left to take out one more enemy because the last fighter is coming around for another pass. You grip the controls and brace yourself for another round in this grueling dogfight. Bursts of light erupt as your enemy shoots at you — he's getting jumpy and firing off too many precious rounds too early. An experienced aviator like you doesn't make this mistake. You wait for the right moment before squeezing the trigger — your patience pays off and you pepper the enemy fighter with gunfire. His plane drifts helplessly to earth, leaving a thick black trail of smoke. Wipe the sweat from your brow and head home, Ace.
