idk

i'm fairly new to the game, today would just be my first week of playing the
game, the only thing wrong with that aircraft was the left wing, propeller
and everything else was fine:p

His X-Y coordinate is over concrete, so yes, it makes sense.

Note: all damage was sustained BEFORE landing. And yes, I got the 3 kills

I don't have screenshots, but...

One time I was bringing in an F4U to a carrier with engine damage. Short of landing my engine cuts out and I'm trying to glide her in. Unfortunately I lacked sufficient airspeed and fell short, and bellied in on the carrier's wake. But when I towered out, they credited me with a safe landing.

Sometime before that, once again on a carrier landing, either I misjudged my lineup or the carrier turned at the last second. I struck the deck, skidded and bounced, and ended up dangling nose-down off the side of the ship from the AAA batteries. I'm hanging suspended by what I think was my tailwheel and one gear from the deck railing, but still ON the ship. They scored THAT as a ditch.

Think i've had three interesting landings; Sad to say, no screen shots

1: Was over enemy base capping and ran out of fuel. Decided to try to land or bellyland into Ammo Hangar until base was captured. Went in, broke off my gear and wings. Slid to hault between truck and far left wall (left as you look into it) I was there for about 10 minutes and end up getting three proxy kills until the base finally was captured

2: Had to belly land but was at bad angle; bounced off one ammo bunker wings ripped off, hit FG and somehow end up leaning against one of the BHs

3: Crashed landed in P47 unto CV; and was at 45 degree angle (engine straight down to water with tail up in air); other words, just dingling so how i didn't fall off, dunno

Landed my Hurricane on a CA during Fire Over Malta after the CV sank, but ditched.

(Might've been a riceburner in Coral Sea too...too late at night to remember. Was something slow.)

Pffft! You act like this is out of the ordinary!

SAPP P38 pilots have been landing like this for years, and in formation no less!

Came in for landing on a CV, my Coursair was shot to hell and I had a pilot wound.....

Passed out on final...

Heard a massive crunch....

Waited till I came to... And was smackin the middle of the deck LOL...

Yeah, but how many kills did you land with that one, Corky?
