Not channel 1 chatter or argueing.

One of mine is as recent as a week or two ago.

Was on a raid with some people and after we drop we get involved in a dogfight.
I end up with a Jug all over my six that I cant seem to shake tracers flying on either side of me as I jink and juke to narrowly avoid them. So I call for help.
A buddy of mine comes in to help. the jug is now like 3-400 yards out and still all over me.
Does my bud say break right or left, or climb?
No. He said and I quote
"Just hold it nice and steady and Ill blow him away"

 I swear if he were sitting next to me I woulda slapped him lmao


ROFL, I love when that happens, and it happens alot to me. Mainly due to my amazing ACM skills I always have guys on my 6 :D  and every time someone comes in to help they tell me to just hold still and fly straight. Like im gonna just give this guy a kill so the other guy can get him off my 6 as im falling to the ground, but hey I do appreciate the help of guys coming in on me.

i still get a kick out of seeing the newbies dropping troops all over the runways of both enemy and friendly bases:rofl  i have to laugh because i did it once when i first started and someone had to school me...

another good one is while i spawn camp in my tiger i like seeing the guys in panzers continulessly up and try to kill me and i keep blowing them away so they get pissed and go grap a 110 or something and try to kill me and auger in the proccess:rofl

I once flew a goon to a capture a base that seemed well guarded.  Pretty soon, all the fighters on my side were down, but I still managed to get to the city without being seen.  Once there, I quickly opened the doors and out went the...CARGO! :eek:

Ouch!

Jumping into a furball and forgetting that you have Ord is always fun.


Once. Just once.



So far.

Curval,

Thanks for posting the link to "Snafu's Snafu".  The picture and his well-written account are an AH classic.

MRPLUTO

P.S.  If this had happened to me in real life, I think I still would find it "hysterically" funny in the spirit of the book/movie Catch-22.  By the time I realized what had happened, the danger was over and I knew I'd lived.  There never would have been a moment when I felt fear...just a giddy relief of having dodged death yet again.

:cool:

P.P.S.  It's pretty dumb, too!

spent a long time trying to capture a field, troops were disabled at the nearest fields so someone was flying goon from a couple grids away. After a long time he finally got there, me and a few others were the 'Air superiority fighters' keeping the enemy away. Well after waiting a long time, he finally showed up in the c47, I dove down and did a barrle roll over him. He got the bright idea to doa  barrel roll in a c47 on the deck..... well, I think you can guess he augered.

probably the funniest thing I've ever seen was after killing someone in my niki ( they were in a 202 or 205 I think) I thanked him for the easy kill.
He got so mad he got himself muted, then started a thread named after me.
 I Still go look at that thread every once in a while, and I Still laugh till I fall out of  my chair:rofl
