Killed a JB in his 262 when we were on a deep strike naval raid on the base near  bottom left HQ on Mindanao.  I think I was in an F4F or F6F and let a spray out and must have landed a head shot.  If i recall correctly we took that base and held it for awhile, that was AH1 though.

Cant remember any one single event, but back in AH1 times i had great fun winging up with one or two other jug drivers and creating mahem from up high. There have also been quite a few buff intercept special events were we have flown 109s or 190s in pairs against buffs with pony escorts.

Yesterday i had many sorties in my K4 up high were i downed formations of lancs while dodging in and out of the cloud cover and taking time to find good angles comming out of the sun.

Yucca was flying his p47N in TT one night.. i was just flying along at around 15k in my p51 when i saw him starting to climb up to hammerhead someone.  Didnt even have to drop the nose.. he flew right up into my guns.. i pulled off a 4 second burst and he blew... first yucca kill it was satisfying.

Back when AH2 was in beta pyro was in a p38 mixing it up with someone
I and wolf14 were circling waiting our turn. pyro splashed the con and I rolled in flying a p51 back in the beta days most planes had a wicked snap stall that was almost unrecoverable unless you were at 15k or better. I think this is what pyro was testing. Anyways we danced for about 5 mins pyro flew that 38 better than anyone i have ever seen. I finally got a snap shot of his tail and down he went.

At another time Hitech was testing a panzer this was back when AH2 still had tunnels. i had snuck around thru a tunnel and was hiding behind a bush. When he passed my I gave him a few luv taps with the MG, when he started to turn the turret I nailed him :D :D  i got a "good Job" comment in the text buffer.
Crap now I gotta redo my cool sig.....crap!!! I cant remeber how to do it all !!!!!

No fav's just some memorable moments.  Did 2 tigers with 2x 500Lbs at 400 MPH in one pass in a F6f.  Boooom booom ..thank you  :D

AR234 is my primary Cv sinker.  Had bombs in air when a F4 mission rolled.  Got the CV and 5 kills:rofl

Most landed kills in 1 sortie (no rearms) p47 25 Loaded up max fuel + drops.  Went for some alt and landed 10 kills (no vulches) after a 40 minute flight.  :aok

Was in a spit when a con with bags of E dived in at me.  Did a barrel and blew him to watermelon after he flew through the middle of my roll.  Right proper it was.    :lol

Memorable 3 on 1.  Me in spit16 and TinmanX + 2 friends in p38 G's or J's. They caught me low an slow first time and tuck turns nibbling bits of my plane away.  Talk about pissed off !  Once down I upped from 1 base back and caught um equal alt.  I was like :furious   Killed all 3 of um in just over a minute and was   :D

My best kill wasnt in AH it was in AW. Anyone who flew AWdos on GEnie will remember Killer, he was the master of the 190. It was late in AWdos on the big ETO map with the lake in the middle, I forget the name of that map now. We met head on both in 190s co-E and co-alt. On the merge he did a big flat turn and I went vertical, on the second merge I got the kill shot. It wasnt all that long of a fight and it was really because of his mistake of doing the flat turn more than anything I did, but I still think of that as my "best" kill because of who it was.

Afterwards he complimented me on my flying and said "As soon as I saw you go vertical after the merge I knew I was in deep ****!".

I know I'm speaking for Flayd on this one, but during the AH Convention featuring the flying PT Boats, I remember Flayd laughing his A** off as he was orbiting an aerial spawn point in his B26's. He killed HiTech's flying boat 5 (?) times, I think. I'll ask him later today.

"A kill"  It would have to be between these two:

Several years ago I was rtb in a spit9 on mindano near A44 when a P47 spotted me, and dove in for the attack.  I had no ammo, and very little fuel.  I repeatedly evaded the P47s BnZ attacks with the E difference becoming more equal each pass.  I realized that this guy would never take the hint, and go find an easier target, so I changed tactics to using the terrain as a pick.  In other words "Ill present a shot opportunity, but you'll have to auger to connect with it".  The result was Sysytem: You have shot down HiTech.

The other was that I was 6K away from an enemy field, and saw the telltail spawn dot indicating that someone was about to spawn at the far end of the runway.  So I elevated my nose, to lob a rocket about 1/3 the way down the runway from that spawn (6K range mind you).  I watched the dot spawn, start rolling down the runway, and then a crater appeared right behind them dead center on the runway and they blew up.  It's the longest range kill from an a/c Ive ever gotten.

Winning any fight that last over a minute and you both stay within 600yds of each other the entire fight.

Killing the last guy in a 5 vs 1 fight.

Killing someone after they call me out on 200.

Killing leviathn when I only had 1 wing:aok

Our squad was having some fun fighting with a notorious p38 pilot who was appearing over our field at 20k. I figured which field he was coming from and went out to ambush him on his next sortie, took an la7 to 20k ( where no one would expect one) and stayed just outside the dar cirle when I noticed a dot in a slow climb, I gently went down to 16k and made him go poof at 200 out. It was poetic.

Though not really a kill my next favoite was bailing out o a hillside I took out the gun an osti that drove by, never knew what hit him as I shot down
into his open turret.
