Default RE: the KILL(er) shot

Excellent film, but are you sure the camera was the gun camera of a P-40? Gun cameras on fighters didn't pan to follow the subject. Or look back.

It's always been a puzzle how those pictures were taken. They were obviously from a plane that was about the speed of the other two, flying ahead and to the left of the subjects. The camera looks like it is pointing back at an angle. Japanese camera man?
