First Fighter Pilot

The First Fighter Pilot commands the lead fighter plane in a coordinated aerial assault on the DC-3 carrying Indiana Jones, Short Round, and Willie. He positions his aircraft off the DC-3's side for attack but encounters Short Round's machine gun fire from the open passenger door. Bullets strike his plane, forcing it to smoke, veer away, and explode mid-air. This quick defeat removes the primary threat yet signals the second fighter to intensify the pursuit.
