Neat clip
Hats off to the pilots too. have a stoppage that low , with the speed those things would knock off and it would take some very fancy footwork to stay in the air.

Don't let the look of the recoil fool you. I read once that every shot dropped the nose of the aircraft by 5 degrees hence the single shots. Fire more than one and you are looking at the ground coming up pretty fast.
 
You re welcome Aaron.

I guess it depens also on inertia, at higher velocity of the aircraft less effect of the gun recoil.
 
Great video, C.B.. I didn't know that IID's of 6Sq have emblem, nice to see some other 6Sq JV than Z.
