Nothing can turn with a goon on the deck :D
I ended up taxiing that goon into town with both wings removed and no elevators. :lol
I waited patiently while the rest of town was dropped (I even had to go afk for a while) and eventually landed. TBH I had no idea I'd racked up that many kills!
:salute To JimBeam and his crew for coming in to finish the town off for me :aok

ive been flying in the late war with the D3a. Bombing is cool wish i had bigger bombs. dogfighting is fun until you get cherry picked as you filling a p-38 full of holes. But with 6 kills ( mossi, spit 16, seafire, fw190d9, ta 152, a6m5 )  9 assists  ( 5 on lancasters 4 on b24's ) with 7 losses is not too bad for an obsolete plane.  :D
Sheesh, we'ren't you tooting your horn on country about it too last night?  :rolleyes:

He just wants to remind you that he can out fly anyone and those he can't are obvious cheaters.

I landed 2 kills in a Goon a few weeks ago.  Although, admittedly, I didn't even see the bad guy until after he had augured and given me the proxies.  Apparently, someone in a flight of Bostons saw me when I was approaching the V base we were trying to capture.  He dove on me with his Bostons, missed on the first pass, causing both of his drones to augur and give me the proxies.  A squaddie came along and dispatched his last Boston, then I landed and we captured the V-Base.

It was fun seeing my name in lights with the landed kills in a C-47.
