In, or inin (should really be "I'm In") - Attacking or in the fight

Killshooter - killing yourself by shooting friendly planes or GVs
Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you

It ain't pretty

Hehehe...
"Check 6" means someone is maneuvering onto your tail.
"666" means break now or die he's all over you.

Hammer already has a thourough list of common terms.  I could only come up with a dozen or so to email when he got back and was able to update the site.

Only new one I picked up lately was:
tumbleweed- lacking situational awareness (just rolling along)

Murdr: Just killed a tumbleweed. - (pilot never saw me comming)

Pilot1: 190 diving on you
Pilot2: Im tumbleweed.  (I dont see it?)
Pilot2: Tally 190 (now I see it)

I had always thought RTB was strictly netspeak, until I seen the press conference when the crew that had to emergency land in China returned.  I heard that Lt Osborne say "and his wingman rtb'd...excuse me, returned to base"
