Fdiron, you jerk!
« on: May 09, 2002, 12:03:36 PM »
I was flying my F4U-1 this morning from some island base in Baltic.  An enemy CV was 5 miles off shore launching wave after wave of fighters.  Land based enemy fighters were flying in too.  Anyhow, I was at about 5k and 2 enemy fighters were comming in on me.  I popped my WEP on and split-Sed towards my base.  I was on the deck and flew over Fester in his tank (wtf was he doing in a tank?).  Then I see in the chat buffer "FDiron, you jerk!"  then he said something about me dragging fighters to him.  I told him to stop crying then I devised my plan-

I re-upped in my F4U-1 and headed towards the enemy cv.  I tried to present the biggest target I could to the enemy fighters.  I got two of them latched onto me and I dove for the deck.  Making sure the fighters were still on me, I set my course for Festers tank.  I did a high speed pass over his tank at 400mph+ and pulled up into a wing over.  The enemy fighters saw Fester and started straffing him,  I again dove over Festers tank and to my delight I was able to see it explode out of my rear window.   At this time I was laughing very hard and I imagine Fester was very mad.  

Moral of the story-  If your going to cry, I will give you something to cry about.

You're somehow proud of this feat?

I fully concur :D Though with this arena, you have to be careful. You might get a 100 check 6 calls whenever you annoy someone ;)

LOL

I can relate to this

While flying with the MAW, these guys had the uncanny ability to ALWAYS drag the FEW cons in the area right on TOP of the M3 or GOON trying to come in for the capture (after proclaiming the area was clear, etc etc....another saga....)

Gooning for the MAW, always an experience that makes one donate heartily to the "Jerry's Kid" foundation hehehe  ;) :p :)

AKEagles' score on this post:

Troll:  7.5

Excellent presentation of the bait!  The sanctimonious self-justification for betraying a comrade in arms should draw them in!  

Hypocrisy 8.0

Very high marks for this one! Well done sir :)

Humor  7.0

I haven’t laughed this much since I heard Arafat condemn terrorism!  You have made my day, and I appreciate your taking the time to entertain us. :)

Spontaneous Creativity:  8.5

This is a great variation on JoeCrips “Check 6” post.  Well written, obviously you want the honor of WoW.  And all done with a lack of profanity! :)

Final Score……

7.8!    

My congratulations on a great post sir, I can only anticipate that you will improve with time.  I didn’t want to stifle your creativity by giving you the score you really deserve! :D

We have so many creative and talented entrants, I am glad it is Rude who picks the WoW and not me!

BD5 ... you have some set of balls !!!

When you flew with the MAW, I enjoyed flying with you at all times. I have flown MANY missions with the MAW (many more than you) and have also GOONed MANY times for the MAW (many more than you) and have yet to witness them consistently dragging cons to the goon. NEVER have any MAW flyers dragged a con towards my goon. As a matter of fact, since AHV, we are always aware of the goon position and have dragged cons in a 180 direction from the goon, resulting in base captures without ALL FHs down.

I was flying the mission the day that the cons were inadvertently dragged your way. I remember how upset you were and in a very adult manner, you pissed and moaned and then logged.

I fail to find the correlation of this thread to your whining about how cons were dragged to your goon. If I am in an Osty, I beg other planes to drag the cons my way. This is not the first thread that you have needed to try to weave this isolated event into an existing thread.

Your snide-ass remarked that anybody who fly's for the MAW should be associated with the poor children that have MS should be a clue to anybody that reads your post as to what weight it must hold.

We have all heard your SAGA ... watermelon happens and you need to let it go.

LOL!

I didn't Logout, nor whine about it....I was pretty much in awe how both goons suffered much the same fate on the day you mention.

And, I LOVE it when guys drag cons to the CV guns or if Im in an M16.  But my remarks stand on the many times Ive had MAWs (yes, your beloved little MAWs) who have dragged cons right on top of the M3/Goon....

LOL...MAW = Moaning And Whining  hahahahhaa  JK!  Switch to boxers, relax! hehe....
