Why I don't fly Lancasters

Just a little film from last night.

Thanks to Thorr for being the other gunner and Letitbe2 for Escort duties.

Thorr was telling me about that later on in the night Drone!  That crap is funny!!  Not the first time I have seen it, but it is the first time I have have seen it with using the top turrent.  I have done it with them and just fly right up next to them and jump in the side gun so I have the side guns, top turrent and tail guns all go postal on them!  Nice clip bro!!

Especially the fancy maneuvering done by the Lancs.. NOT.

Of course, it probably would not have mattered.

lol.. well, they were Lancs at 15k.. I'd say he was polishing off a beer, dumping previously consumed beer, or making a Dagwood sandwich while waiting for that beast to get up to 25k.

Judging from the lack of tracers until it was too late, he probably just caught a glimpse of tumbling cockpit .. I'd say between the installation of the 4th slice of ham and 3rd slice of provolone.

I could be wrong..

Mid-air refueling...:rofl

How about..."venting used fuel"  or "draining the auxiliaries"?

Too funny...
