Abstract
An action skill game including a game board with a pair of simulated aircraft shiftably mounted on the game board at each of the opposite ends thereof and each of which are operated by opponent players. The simulated aircraft are carried by a shiftable carrier mechanism which is also provided with a projectile shooting mechanism and which carrier mechanism also enables 'transverse movement' of the aircraft relative to the game board and 'pivotal movement' relative to the game board and the shooting mechanism. Each of the shooting mechanisms are provided with control sticks so that the opponent players can manuever the simulated aircraft as well as shoot projectiles at the other simulated aircraft. Each of the particular simulated aircraft employ a pair of moveable target elements which will shift rearwardly with respect to the fuselage of the aircraft when hit by a projectile from the opposite simulated aircraft. When both of the pair of targets on a particular aircraft have been hit and shifted, by the projectiles, a release mechanism permits the plane to pivot downwardly thereby simulating a damaged aircraft.
