I also spotted one Jap pilot in the water (gotta talk to my lookouts, their report was "Ship spotted, sir". ). The pilot was standing in the water up to his knees, waving his arms at me.

Gotta love this game!

I don't think you get credit for the "kills" when they kill each other. I've had 'em drop bombs on one another and climb so steeply they appear to stall and crash right into the drink without firing a shot.
