In a single engine aircraft when it catches on fire, does anyone really think someone would be able to control it and dogfight? I mean YOURE ON FIRE. I never really thought about it till tonight. Also...why does a Zeke last so long while its burning? Shouldnt it last the least amount of time?

There was an RAF chap in the real life BoB who continued fighting in his flaming Hurricane. James Nicolson. Won the VC

So yes, depending on your mettle.

where did the chuck norris comments /joking start?or who started them?.....Conan O'brien?

just curious,  I had the pleasure of meeting him when I was a pre-teen/young teenager ( 12 thru 15 ). My martial arts instructor at the time was friends with Norris, had sparred with him, and even participated in some tournaments with Norris. Norris also came to help us put on some exhibitions at our dojo and at my high school..........

I see the humor in it all, but having met and spoke with him, I do not see the relation between the comments/jokes

and NO I am no Black Belt, Girls/Cars was to overwhelming to finish the last step.........

btw..........the comments ( some of them ) are very funny at times :D


Big Fluffy R, I often wondered the same regarding the Zeke planes.........

All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

When skin bubbles, blisters and bakes off THEN you'll see players stop trying to fly in a burning craft.  Until then all a flaming plane means to an online game player is that they have XX minutes/seconds left till they are forced to respawn.

Its really quite simple burning plane modeled burning pilot is not do the math. Maybe HITECH might model a burning plane as a pilot wound. But instead of blood on the glass you see some flames and your little pilot dude would start screaming and thrashing around that would be kewl.

 Untill the plane on fire still in the fight. Keep shooting at it our stay the hell out of its guns solution.

Im all for the burning of our cartoon pilets....but please model the engines in the mutli-engine bombers to allow single engine shutdown to extinguish flames. That would be cool too.
