Low altitude CAP near krymskaka. Spotted flight of 3 yaks, north of the patrol zone, turned to engage. Black 1 took a hit but managed to RTB okay. Yellow2 and myself spent 10 mintutes shooting a Yak, bastard just woulndt take the hint and die, but eventually turned him into a flaming potato.
Continue patrol, spotted another flight circling Abinskaya. Did not not engage due to heavy AAA at that airfield. They did not pursue either.
RTB successfully.
