Whats the funniest thing you have seen in a recent mission?

I dunno if you would call it funny, but it sticks out as my greatest experience. I was in F6F, low on fuel and bb's 10 miles from home over the water when I'm bounced from 3k above by a Rook Spit. He overshot me and the game was on. We tangled for a good couple of minutes during which I spent the rest of my ammo (with nary a hit ) and he got my aileron and fuel. I ended up extending and running for home on the deck but he caught me quick and as I prepared for the end he blew by my port side did a roll then came back and flew station on my high 6 until I made land, then he peeled and buggered off. I ended up ditching OK, and immediately started banging out 's on the buffer, with no answer. My buds are all of the opinion that my survival was the result of him being out of BB's too, but I'm a schmuk that likes to believe that chivalry and honour are not dead !!! So if you were that Rook Spit,,,<> sir, thanks for the great fight, and thanks for the great memory. It's moments like these that keep me coming back. I'm going to sniff some more glue now...
Cheers all.

i think the best was when Ripsnort and the rest of VMF323 did a CV mission with F4u's........

needless to say most of the people crashed into the sea, not knowing how to take a heavy F4u off from a CV :rofl

Forget the map but it was one with trains about 4 months ago.

An NOE mission rolled about 20 JABO planes to capture a base way behind the front lines.
Flew for about 10 minutes we were all pretty tight in. I was tail end charlie.

Mission popped out of a valley when over the mission channel Voxx all you started hearing was "OH *****."

I popped out of the valley and planes were crashing into the deck, burning hulks falling from the sky, planes breaking off in every direction, tracer fire everywhere, all kinds of comotion on mission and range voxx.

The NOE raid had popped out of a valley right into a resupply train and it laid waste to about 90% of the group.

I was laughing so hard my sides were hurting.

Out of the approx. 20 aircraft in the flight only about 4 RTB'd. I managed to RTB missing alot of major and essential airplane parts.

One train did what a group of defenders usually cant regardless of which side and that was to stop a large raid dead in its tracks.

I learned to respect trains and thier quad 20mm's alot that day. I knew they were deadly but man it was like flying into a blender on high speed that night.

I got bounced tonight in the CT by about 10-12 P51's in my 190A5. They all came down in a pack,  I did the "Shane/Wildthing" roll reversal move (which I have been diligently practicing) and made very one of them overshoot. Unfortunately, I was laughing so hard I didnt kill any as they went by.

although this is pretty funny too:

Whilst gooning A127 on FesterMA i got to the field and discovered that our CAP had gone.....completely. luckily no enemies had realised and the way was clear. as i approached the town a i realised with terror that a niki had just upped behind me facing the opposite way to me. knowing i could not make it to the drop i turned round and chased after the niki closing the gap between us to about 200yrds. he must have been a seriously new type (stall limiter, auto trim etc) because try as he might, he could not shake me:rofl  for the first two minutes it was vaguely amusing but after about 4 mins i was cursing having no guns. in total i tailed him around his own field for 5 mins untill a spit14 came racing down from somewhere i know not, and ripped two shades of **** out of me. i had to log after this because i couldnt se from the tears of laughter
If you were that niki, wtg:aok , made me laugh for a full 10 mins

*The Noob with a formation of B-17s yelling on range Voxx and typing in CAP's for 10 min, wonderin why two guys are following him and are they goin to the same place (His Drones)

*Sixx leading our squad on a 150mile NoE run with A-20's into a 5k wall of death

*long time ago I led a Bishwaffe raid, we roll from a rear base for alt, 10 minutes later we are passing over an allied base...
I call targets and "Talley ho" and dive down for staffing run on our own field, luckily the 15 or 20 guys all ignored the mission leader and continued on...:D

A dive bombing Lancaster drop his entire load on a carrier and miss!    That was a gut buster!       I got the kill from a ship's gun.
