I had a great time last night. I would like to thank 880 and JG54 for bringing in players last night, myself included. I wouldn't have been there if I hadn't read Shifty's post.

There were a few of us (Trotter and Might01) that were trying to help out the situation over A41 but some of the others wouldn't listen.

But a great night overall.

Kong.

Actually the way you came in on the last pass and finished the job  was first class flying. I wasn't suprised when it was you. I was glad it wasn't TK, I'd already given him two kills for the night and didn't want you guys accusing me of spoiling him.

I was late to the initial furball but in getting there it was frustrating to see the whirling catfight below and the high 190's above and deciding which to commit to.  I chose to inter-weave between the 2 and managed to get one of the 190's to commit to an attack.  When he tried to extend, at least that's what it looked like to me, I converted E to altitude and caught him slow...which is a good thing as I was about out of E at that time.  

The a/c combos definitely makes things interesting.

I don't fly 190s a lot so I was being cautious. I switched to the 190 because those blue planes are tanks and the single pop/mgs on the 109 were frustratingly impotent.

Great furball over the water, salute all. Have to say I kept looking at the map and wondering - who are the dweebs capping 41 and who are the numskulls who keep upping from there. Hey, to each his own.


<----- One of the numbskulls :D

I was about to move to 42 to get a little alt then looked at the clock and went HOLY !#$!#%  time to log.

I can feel the love in this thread. I may have to fly thursday and provide myself as a manned target drone. If you see me, go easy, I havent flown in 6 months I think.

Or you could just use it as a chance to pound me into even tinier little pieces of corn meal.  :)

I always thought you were Homony Grits?? :confused:

Enjoy the love while it last Grits. You know us we always smooch, just before we go for each others throats.:D

Actually last night was a good night. The plane matchups were great , both squads fought as hard and smart as possible. Even when I was in a jam it was one of the best times I've had in this arena in years. We were too busy trying to kill each other to think of anything else.
