If I remember correctly I came off a carrier to take out ords. Made 2 passes through ack, took out the ords and was heading back with a PW, 0 ammo and a horde of cons behind me.

What was I supposed to do, open the canopy and throw the flight manual at you?

I don't really care what people do tactically, other than those who bail at the first sight of enemy AC.  Usual suspects for this are bombers and attack sorties like ord/ troop porkers.   Should get some kind of penalty for bailing like that.

I find it funny when flying my bombers and I got some con trailing me thinking they gonna get vulch kills when I land----lower that throttle so the con gets closer......then open up with guns and send to the tower.  Or play AFK.  Other times, Ill type on 200 that I am waving at the con by designating its type and my AC and where.  Sometimes the cons reacts due to typing and I can see it  LOL.

To the uneducated flyers, bombers can fly on F3 mode, which means good ol god mode view.  I am rarely ever caugh unaware in my bombers--on final bomb run is another matter, when I don't care cause just wanna drop that ord on target.  I sure do die, but I usually see it coming.

I love to GV and do Jabo missions vs GVs, get used to it.  Being good at one helps in the other.

Also we can hear the enemy guns when in the bomb sight. Having already figured his attack angle we can jump into a tailgun right away and spray. The less experiemced sticks will want to get all 3 bombers at once, thus getting none. There have been a few times Ive fried the fighter after hearing it, turned around, and bombed the target on the 2nd pass.

                        Then again, maybe were just sitting in that rear tailgun making you think were in bomb sight mode, just waiting for you to attack us over the target. You never really know do you?

Eh, if you get the advantage but can't close the deal, I'll hit the gas and try to get enough distance to come back and re-engage. Maybe I should just pull up and let you kill me? No matter how great you think your merge and ACM is, if you can't get hits and leave the door open, why should opponent just lay down for you?

I hate guys who clamp their fingers down on the trigger as they're falling. It's especially aggravating when they get lucky and actually hit you.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
