Recreating a very early historical action: He115Bs mass attack gets intercepted. Historically 4 out of 9 were shot down with no loss to the British. In this engagement, 6 out of 6 were shot down, but they blew up a tanker.
6 Hurricanes (2 speed prop, 87 octane) come up under the low clouds (radiator way open -- without CEM, I guess that's what you get):

An over-the channel battle (early), with 3 109s and 12 Stukas versus 6 spitfires and 6 hurricanes (87 Octane). The 109s shot down a Hurricane and the Spirfires shot down 10 out of 12 Stukas (they hit the tanker anyway). Here two Stukas head for the sea:
