The new all-time low is....

You get a new plane.  Who cares :)

Had a guy in a 190 come screaming down the runway at my 38G, engines not started yet.  I figured what the heck and opened fire while sitting still.  Got em good as he came at me nice and straight.  He died.

Not sure if that qualifies as a HO shot if I'm on the ground, not moving :)

Depends.  Was the runway a giant conveyor belt moving in the opposite direction of your plane intended path?

I'm sorry Hal.  I called the dairy, and they don't have enough cheese to go with your whine.   Looks like you are S.O.L.





P.S.  Try lifting off from a NON CAPPED BASE next time.

I thought the guy who somehow got his PT Boat behind a runway had a good time.  Not an example of "low" at all.  A bit odd to say the least.  But he had to have had a hoot until he either died or exited.

i almost forgot one thing..........by the sound of it, this wasn't just your average furball near the base, with one single guy commin to vulch ya.....it sounds as if they were in the process of taking this base......and in that instance.....all bets are off....i don't ho, and i don't ram on purpose...although i've misjudged closure rates often.....but in base defense when you're tryin to capture....i'll do whatever i have to to sotp ya.....if i'm in the air, and capping your base for the capture......i'm gonna do whatever i have to do to keep you out of my airspace.....even if it means i have to ho ya or vulch ya...........in the average furball.......it's loike a rollercoaster ride......i get my thrill(and i think a lot of you do too)from the twisting, turning and manuvering for position......unfortunatly i'm not that good at it yet......

just my 2 cents.......
