.....myself :rant: Chased a blooming HE111 that had just dropped a stick of bombs on my nose as I was taking off...Saw Red closed right it, clipped his fin on way out and was doing 520 to fast to bail lost a wing and died 445 VEF points chucked away :( :rant:
that mission seemed a flop on both sides when u look at the amount of kia. i got clipped when the 2nd HE apeard infront of me which left me smoking nicely. think some of thos germans need to learn how to shoot at a plane using rudder tho ;)
:(
You didn't tell me what you were doing either, which pi$$ed me off more TBH - I was flying on the heading and only Clingy was following, yet I thought you were all there :(
And then it was me and Clingy trying to fend off IL2's for a couple of mins until Geist came - got one but Deckard was a goner by the time I'd been killed :(
Straight after talking about good teamwork and comms, we had a mission without any at all :(
Nice score Geist :)
Ya see I'm not there and it all falls apart :D
I was shot to hell after a b n z from a 109 or 190... he was too fast to tell which. One pass and my elevator and rudder was gone. I dropped my bombs and managed to hit a couple of cars, then headed south for a bit before turning for the lines... Obviously not far enough though, as I was taken out about 5 minutes later.... not much you can do with just ailerons.... even less with with only one wing! :(
Still, we had a damn good game the mission before, I got my first ever B'n'Z kill and was being covered by Geisty while I was doing it... then I climbed back up and covered him while he had a pop at a 110...
Shame he pranged it on landing...
Wish I could say I contributed. 40 mins waiting for mission to get going (incl an abort), 10 mins to all hit fly, 20 mins to target, 1 minute to get shot down.
Sucker punch really. Spotted a 190 with Navs of flying nice and straight, lined him up and BOOM I explode as his mate does the honour.
:Oops:
But, yeah, we weren't really organised in that one. Having said all that it was my first VEF since all my problems and I lurrrrved it. Only one or two config things to sort and I should be back to square one!
oooh shame guys.
Looks like the team thing dies some days :(
Clingy, you're alright bud... I wouldn't worry about being back at square one... I've never even left it!!
I am always encouraged by the words of Sir John Harvey-Jones.
"No matter how bad it is, it can always get worse"
...Thanks John m8 :rockon:
that 190 put his navs on when he first got targeted. i know this cos it was I who was shooting at him :devilish: did lose him tho so might have been a diffrint 190 but kinda dout it.
was abit serprised that a direct hit from the 39's cannon to just behind the cockpit (i think) on the 190 didnt do much...
I clearly called the bomber had cut straight in front of me and I was having a popQuote:
