Saturday the local HMGS-South group played a game of Check Your Six at the Dogs of War shop. The 1/300 scale planes involved were:
3 B26
2 P38
4 P47
2 FW190
4 Me109
2 Me110
The bombers were to cross the table and bomb some military installations in France prior to D Day. None made it. Two 110s were lost. Two 109s and a 190 were damaged.

- FW190s
-
- P38s
-
- The target
-
- P47s
-
- The 109s slip right to get at the bombers and the P47 turn in to cover.
-
- The 109s take out one bomber in their pass. 2 P47s split off to chase them.
-
- An ace in a FW190 takes down another bomber.
-
- The remaining 110 takes out the last bomber before being destroyed itself.
