Ever have one of those nights in the MA....
« on: August 08, 2008, 07:33:24 PM »
...where things go so right for you it's almost silly? One of those nights where it has more to do with luck than anything else? I had a ride along for both of these flights, last night.  Poor guy, thinks people fly in front of me all the time... wonders what he's doing wrong.     :lol

Short films.

Here's the start of the second flight. Such freebies give me a mix of guilt and chuckles.

Here's the end of the second flight. FlyinFin waxes me in the first sequence. I really screw up my throttle management and he owns my 6 as a result; thoroughly outflying me in the process. <S> 'Fin.

I landed seven in a Spit XVI a few nights ago without re-arming.  That was among my best ever single sorties.  Then the very next night I landed seven in a F6F-5 without re-arming.

Tonight I got two and two deaths.  I guess I used up all my luck earlier in the week.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Double digit landings are always special :)  :rock :rock :rock
Even if it seems certain that you will lose, retaliate. Neither wisdom nor technique has a place in this. A real man does not think of victory or defeat. He plunges recklessly towards an irrational death. By doing this, you will awaken from your dreams.

Last night, I took a Ta 152 up to break a cap on one of our bases. The source of the horde was a CV offshore. My goal was to knock them down before they could drop bombs. My first attack knocked down a TBM. I reversed back and went after an F6F. I closed to within 100 yards, blasted the Hellcat and ducked under the wreckage... Only to run into the bombs the pilot had just pickled off.
