Yeah I guess that all could have something to do with it. My laptop is so old it can not handle games like that. Just hope it will last another couple of weeks and then I am going to have to get a new one when I get home.
I remember a while back in this thread there was something about Meteors downing V-1s. I don't know if any information was gained on it, and I cannot be bothered to look but on 4th August 1944, Flight Officer JK Roger flying a Gloster Meteor of 616 Sqd. was the first pilot to shoot down a V-1 by cannon-fire.
I am not sure I am trying to research it myself but here is what I found so far.
In daylight, V-1 chases were chaotic and often unsuccessful until a special defence zone between London and the coast was declared in which only the fastest fighters were permitted. Between June and mid-August 1944, the handful of Tempests shot down 638 flying bombs. (One Tempest pilot, Joseph Berry, downed fifty-nine V-1s, another 44, and Wing Commander Beaumont destroyed 31.) Next most successful was the Mosquito (428), Spitfire XIV (303), and Mustang, (232). All other types combined added 158. The still-experimental jet-powered Gloster Meteor, which was rushed half-ready into service to fight the V-1s, had ample speed but suffered from a readily jammed cannon and accounted for only 13.
Now if you go to: http://www.redtwo.demon.co.uk/616/Welcomehist.htm
it has a history of the 616th and ti also says that on the 4th he was the first to shoot down a V-1 "diver" with a Meteor. From what I can tell Tempests shot down more even before the Meteor. I may be wrong but this is just from what I can gather.
F/O J.K.Rodger sighted a Diver at 1640 hrs. near Tenterden on course of 318° at 3000 ft speed 340 mph. Attacking from astern Rodger fired 2 bursts of 2 seconds and saw the Diver crash and explode, 5 miles N.W. of Tenterden.
It seems that most of the downings were not by cannon but by getting the V-1 to dive into the ground by getting your wing just under the V-1's small wing.
The British called them Doodlebugs, mostly. So, from that we can gather that the Meteor didn't really do much in World War 2 except save a few lives with those 13 V-1s downed.
Random fact on the V-1 - Approx. 7000 were launched at Britain which accounted for just over 6000 deaths.
