4 kills in 4 seconds
« Reply #15 on: August 31, 2007, 06:22:44 PM »
A couple years back I was winging with Birdo.   We were in Spit 9's.   We came across co-alt Spits.   Birdo was shot down by Bodhi.   I reversed, dipped and came up underneath Bodhi, dispatching him.    I then had to reverse again, and did the same to the next Spit.  Within 10 seconds I had shot down both Bodhi and Leviathn.   They both <>'d me.

It's good to know "I'm not good enough".

with the "new" (which some will debate) score system, I was quite blessed yesterday..  I upped off the CV in my A1 and flew to a vbase that was getting mugged, there was a P51, a Dora, a F4, and a nik.  I dove in on the 190, pinged him a few times, no damage, he extended far far away onward to greater things, nex thing I know the F4 is right below me, slipt Sd down and killed him, upon exiting I put a few rounds into the 51 as he tries for the HO.. at this point im low on alt and E so I just continue back towards my CV.. with one kill...

on the way, I get a second and 3rd kill for.. unknown reasons..  then as im buzz the carrier to swing around and land... somebody tries to vulch me and the CV ack kills him.. kill #4...

not bad for shooting less than 300 rounds:aok

Good to know you aren't dwelling on that at all.  Could have really damaged your psyche, causing you to bring it up every chance you get.  ;)

I was being dogged by a fighter tight on my six......I am racing back to the Vbase we just took, calling for assistance.

One of my squaddies (flying a 110) heads my way......communicating on radio, I fly to him HO......With proper warning, I pull hard up, calling for him to open up with the 20 and 30 mm cannons....   A stream of tracers pass under me, directly into the nose of the pursuing fighter.   Needless to say, it was instant evaporation, and quite rewarding to watch out my 6.

And then.......................yo u woke up.    

:aok

It was pretty clear to me.  He already had one kill in his sortie.  He dove down into 4 cons, 2 in front and 2 behind.  He "tagged" 2, but only one died (being kill #2 of this sortie), leaving the second plane wounded, but still in front.  Both planes behind fired past him, hitting the wounded but still flying enemy (friendly for them) in front, and therefore both die to killshooter (#3 and #4 of the sortie).  This leaves his 6 clear, and he kills the wounded bird in front (#5 of the sortie).

So the "4 in 4 seconds" of his title were the 2nd through 5th kills of his sortie.  

He kills two more before heading back to base, landing a total of 7 kills.

Try re-reading.  See?  :aok

What post are you referring to?  Must have been some forgery.

I distinctly recall diving my MkI Hurri into a fight to help a buddy, who's got 7 rooks on him. Well, long story short, he died right as I got there, then I'm stuck with all 7...well, being in a HurrimkI, I'm supremely confident I can outturn them all, so I just kept circling...ran 3 into the ground, and killed the other 5 with every bit of ammo I had...then I was RTB and got picked by a temp....good fun that was.

about 2 months ago, i was flying a Yak 9U, well I shot someone down and got Kill #1, then I shot down someone else on the same sortie and got kill #1 again,  
I didn't think of a screen shot, and someone shot me down when I was landing it, wonder what would've happened.

I remember once when my sqdmate flew into an enemy base (kill radar or something i cant recall) and came out with a huge horde on his six. A mix of la's, spit's, p51's, etc etc. I was in a P47 with rockets above them all. I dove in, got within 600 of the last guy, let the rkts fly, switched to all guns, and held the trigger down :lol  . They all scattered in all sorts of directions. It was so funny, and I also was able to pick up 3 kills :rofl  .
