You can't see it in the second one but I was giving it full rudder.  I'll still call it a HO though, because that's what I was trying to do.  :neener:

I try to avoid the head on in MA play, keep it a challenge of air combat skills.  However, when a jet engine and airborne rockets come into play, I throw playing fair out the window.  :D

Ya srry con guys I hoed one or two of ya  insert (hangs head in shame ) emotion. If one of those things got behind you you were dead. lol I dove from over 12k picked off lambo as he was climbing up to kill as set of bombers. I imediatley went back up and one of those super fokkers still climbed my six and he was below me 1.5k. :devil

On one sortie I made the mistake of taking out a zero to try to turn with them. Dude just hit is rocket thingy it looked like he had a warp drive in it. :rofl

Anyway great fun.

No, it is actually a Sopwith Triplane with jet engine and rockets that act like 5 inch AA shells. [/sarcasm]

Yep, it's a Sopwith, that's why the icon was 'FOKR' and then the whole icon was 'SUPRFOKR' ;)

Good call.  Ignore the people who actually flew the real planes against each other.

It is ok to HO anytime if you are ready to risk it all (points, virtual life, possible rtb with kills, a good fight, anything) for one pass. If you are not ready to risk it, donät participate in a HO.

It is stupid to whine about HOs afterwards. No-one "gets HOed", or if they do, they should go learn the basics of SA, gunnery and BFM at TA.

I really didn't expect any of those fokkers to accuse me of an unfair fight because I HOed. lol  The evil con mission was a blast and I'm excited to do it again next year.  And chances are I'll end up HOing whatever they'll be flying there!  :x
