Who would have thought it!
« on: May 10, 2004, 10:32:29 AM »
…that after all the exchanges that have taken place on this board in the last two months, I’d end up winging with Slapshot and Mars01. :eek::D Hehe, it went really well! Welcome to Rooks, TAS. I hope you will stay.

On our first sortie, I was flying a 109G2. Just as I reached 10K, Slapshot typed a message along the lines of ”OK, that’s high enough!”. Sir, yes sir! I levelled off immediately. :lol

Saw Ecke toying with a 205. I got it, but not before it had nobbled Ecke. :( Sorry mate.

There was a guy called Tadpole in our midst. Does a Tadpole become a Toad??

I think this was A76. I made SlapShot my wingman so I could see where he was. That’s why he’s in girlie pink. (I’m going to change the colours so I can have Mars01 in maroon – lol) The cons had given up, so we were building battling! Slapshot seemed quite goot at it! ;) SmokinSS brought the goon. It had turned into a milkrun of an undefended base!

Then we all changed to Corsairs. We got some good results. Things started to go awry when having captured another base, I went after one of two LANC formations taking off from our next target field. I got the LANCs but Jackal1 got me in his 190.

I tried to take off again but – the FH at the base from which we took off were all down, the nearest CV was down, and the next nearest rook field had been 25% fuel porked. The next closest field to that was about to be horde-porked by the knits. See the screenshot taken just before mannable acks were porked. VH was down too. So I logged off.

Knit horde-pork in progress!

Toad has a son that used to fly AH under the name of Tadpole, whether it's the same guy?

Hehehe,

LOL Beet.  Yeah it's nice to know there is always someone above me watching out and now you have some film of me turn fighting a hog.  One against a spit and one against a Nik.:D

Honestly it was fun winging with you Beet.  Almost as fun as trading jabs here on the BBs.:D

Two or three hogs working together are unbeatable.
