This is telling on myself but have seen others do it also, and it's just as funny.
Went in to capture a base after fighting numerous upped boggies and supressing some comming in from another base.
I had like seconds to drop the drunks.....line up ...open the door....and .....re-supplied their base. :rofl

Funny 262

Ok, not going to mention names but there is a certain guy in my squad who killshot himself in a 262 while sitting on the runway waiting to takeoff.  Accidentally hit the primary fire key and shredded the guy in front of him  (you know who you are) :D

As for myself the first time I took up a 262 pert near a year ago now, I was flying around entirely too high, when they tell me over range that the enemy is dropping troops over our town.  So of course I go nose down from 10k heading to sea level... see the troops...  get one in my sights... as I pull the trigger the familiar sound of wings ripping off overtakes me as I go motoring by and pancaking into the hill in front of me.  Sadly, they took the base and the only things hurt were my perk supply and my ego, but life goes on  :aok

Oh and one last thing not 262 related... I once took a town with a fully functional tiger sitting in it on the Pizza map.  Just a reminder to all of you out there who like to play defence with your engine running,  you can't hear the m3 behind ya.  And after he figured out what happened, I had taken out one track, the ack got another and I got the kill..  LOL

All good stories, hope there are more

Flaying around the other day uin my ride..just scoping things out alone looking for a lone dot or 2...when I see 3. Im at 8-9k and they are way higher. As they get closer they are all 3 109's. I think..Welp this isn't good..but wth I'll make the best of it. I watch em as they circle like a bunch of vultures and think these guys are pretty smart...and then they alllll dive at the same time. As they get closer I make my roll over and the whizz right by..All 3 of em..right wing to wing....They were fully compressed and all 3 followed each other to the ground...OMG i was laffing so hard I almost crashed.

3 kills...never fired a shot.  I private chatted em and come to find out they were 3 newbies that had just been online a couple days. Flying G10's cause they looked cool. Funny Funny Funny...They were nice...The one asked me..."What is it when the plane starts shaking and ya control it no more?"  I told him...Compressed Death.  :lol

I admit that the 'did it to yourself' factor has to make it worse than for the 262s I vulched a while back on the Pizza map from 1800 out in a Panzer IV that was missing both tracks; the field had fallen enough behind the lines that people felt it was safe enough to take up 262s from it... Well, they were wrong... I was laughing so hard after the first one I almost missed the second one. They killed me eventually when I ran out of ammo, but it was hilarious while it lasted.

Way back on mindano bish just took 60 and were coming S to the port. no one from 9typh was online so our cv was safe from kamikazi lemmings right on the horizon from the port. I up a seafire and go NOE to whack the goon. I fly to the port no one there I figure if I was a bish goon I would take the safe way down the canyon instead of withen visual range of our cv. I fly down canyon doing my lawnmower impression. Only plane I see is an f6 heading home Im about to set of base warning so I check dar quick,hey on other side of the mountain is a dot. That must be the goon. I fly up the hill,roll inverted at the top to scrape my canopy on the crest and go downhill dodging trees. Darn its not the goon only a spit crossing from 3-9 and there is no way he can see me. I ll just kill him and land. I scream down that hill getting grasstains on my seafires belly come up directly underneath him and,hmm this'll be fun Ill close to 200 and blow him to hell. 350 300 275 range goes down. 200 I pull trigger just as he pulls stick into gut,stalls,and wets his pants. WTH? where that 6 call for him come from? Sure enough I spot the goon about 4k out, make a pass and damage him. Spit comes I kill him, finish goon off. Then say on channel 1 "thanks for 6 calling him goon, never saw you", Goon pilot says  " :( " . To top it off was landing on cv when spits squadie trys to vulch me. :rofl

I saw one last night.  Must have been about 10 sets of lancs coming into a rook base, all NOE.  The prob was..some dweeby n1ks were not NOE...  The rooks base had about 20 rooks surrounding it too.  Once they entered radar range, they were all shot down lmao.  Also saw a bish f4u mission or somethin and they all porked the field....but augered lol.

JJ is a crucial addition to any mission! He check's everyones sixes even if he himself is being shot to hell by 5 n1ks, 2 spitfires, 3 la7's and a 190 popping in and out (true story). This included with his most excellent accent is pure goodness to any mission. Put's a smile on my face! You a funny man JJ!!:D :rofl

my good wingy, who never gets out of his fighter, got out of his hog and into a goon. He flew his goon all the way to the base that had been under attack for hours; we cap'd the town for him, kept him updated on the location of stray nmy fighters; he flies up and drops; it appears to me that he only dropped one troop, so i tell him to finish dropping; he replies he dropped; I fly by, see a pallet of supplies! Ohh the pain he suffered from us laughing at him!

Ah jeez, had a really good one recently.  It was an NOE Typhoon P38 mission around furball island to take one of the bases.


The mission planner said that if the goons are attack, the typhoons should drop the 1k pounder bombs and save them.

So of Course he gave the call.  I pulled up from 40 feet then released the bombs while I was heading upwards.  I looked backwards and suddenly it occured to me.

I don't think many people out of our mission knew that if you drop a bomb too low, it will kill you.

3/4 of the typhoons in the mission poofed instantly.

You know, suddenly I think I understand something that puzzled me for months.

I was making a relatively low approach to an enemy airfield in an F4U with a pair of 1k bombs, and I'd passed a goon on my way in. As I angle over toward the field, I hear the goon driver call for help. I start to pull up into a chandelle to go back to help, and realize I'm heavy, so I pickle my bombs and keep turning. About ten seconds later, as I'm starting to line up for a pass on the Spit harassing the goon (he must have been down to BBs or a dweeb, because he'd made two passes without shooting the goon down), I get a kill message. The three of us were the only planes I could see; I couldn't think of anyone I'd damaged I might have gotten a kill for when someone else finished them off.

Now I think I understand what must have happened; I must have bull's-eyed some poor schmuck in a GV with my eggs, which I'd just lobbed off in whatever direction they wanted to go, at about a sixty-degree up angle, so that they would have been in the air for a bit before they hit.

I can only imagine what the GV driver must have thought; I was never within icon range of an enemy GV, and didn't see anything on the ground, so I must have been more than 2k out from him. If he was watching me, I must have come off as the deadliest bombflinger in the game to be able to hit him from that far out -- and turning away without even bothering to do BDA, to boot... or he wasn't watching, and died without knowing how freak a long shot it was.
