Rick Dominates Late to Beat Stephen Dale in RBF XXXVI
For a while the 36th Red Baron Fight didn't really feel like Red Baron Fight. The largest field since 2018 gathered at Nelson Skinner's house in Lewisville, Indiana on May 17th for the annual event that featured new ammunition rules for the first time. Each pilot was allotted 3 long bursts, 3 interrupted bursts and 2 short bursts with gun jams rolled as usual - although all jams were automatically fixed for the following turn (see New Ammo System Adopted in this issue). The sides for the seven-player game were:
Kevin Richeson, Camel 130 (LT Collier Smith, 14/6)
Bob Meister, Camel 130
Stephen Skinner, Camel 130
Dory Oda, red Fokker Dr1
Rick Lacy, Fokker Dr1 (UNT Lawrence Reiter, 31/7)
