I guess this is what would be known as a "Corkified" P38G.  Everyone wants a piece of it!  :)


It's what you can expect from Bishops. Thats why when you fly with em, you had better learn to watch your own back.

If there is one guy on i always ask if help is needed. If two are on not much chance of reverse and i just keep flying.

Like a pack of wild dogs.



well said. i think corky knows im just teasing.

what he fails to show pictures of is that he most likely just blew through that bunch and took a couple of their buddies with him, they ain gunna let a p38 take the piss like that very long. thats the reason he (and many people) flies it i think, because you are certain to find someone willing to fight a p38 almost any day. the flip side just like with 262s tempest etc etc is that often you find yourself a marked man in an uneven battle.

great for producing amusing pictures though :D

The picture also fails to show the two or three friendly rooks at a higher altitude just above corky's p38.  They were fighting an equal matchup, but the bishops all gave up their altitude when the saw the lower 38 and hoped for an easy kill.:p

I got a bit Corkified (hehe) yesterday in TT. Zeke dove from 10K on me, kept up with my Pony long enough to do some damage, P-47N joined the slaughter, and both just started pumping led into me. I decieded to make 1 final move before I died, so I went vertical (45 degrees), cut my throttle to 0, and listened as the zeke and jug got closer and closer while shooting bullets everywhere. Luckily, somehow, they both overshot, I throttled up, hit WEP, and ran for home.

Two fuel leaks, radiator hit (engine soon cut out due to overheating), left flap gone, rudder, 2 or 3 guns out, and a few hundred more holes in several different spots.



what film viewer didn't show




And yet not 1 bullet hit my cockpit. :lol :D

Your engine has a fully functioning lubrication system and the aircraft gear seems fully functional.

Plus you have a fully operational flap on your starboard wing as well as two ailerons and two elevators!!! when we all know we only need one of each!!

Hey!  A dweeb like me belongs in horde of dweeb planes :)

Can't be fun if you aren't down in the mob mixing it up:aok


Another view of another flight from the same night.  Amazing how many holes a 38G can get :)

:rolleyes:  Yeah, it is really only Bish that do that sort of thing.  :rolleyes:

I have a good screenshot to illustrate my point, but for some reason all I can get out of Mediafire right now are red X's.  :mad:

Everyone knows bish horde.  They must... their gunnery is horrid and have to get as many of them at once to fire to even hope for a hit.



GO BISH!!!!!!
