SALUTE Fudgums!
« on: December 30, 2008, 05:35:03 PM »
Was going over some films from the 29th, today... Some good fights and historical rescues in a lot of them.

Here's a few pics of the most memorable collision I ever survived from in game.  All I remember is this 109 honking around and then literally filling my windscreen.  :O  I swear on my FE the nose of the 38 drove through the 109's cockpit and was I ever amazed to have survived with only damaged oil pans in both engines.
 :salute

Sears takes the shot offered...


Same shot from Fudd's PoV


If you can't shoot em with bullets, then beat them with your nose... or prop hub in this case.



The gods of Coll deal the cards.


Not particularly proud of that moment, but it did make for some good filming.

Fudgus... yes it is!

Begs the question.
Gavagai... I hit him nose on from my FE while he was broad on 90 degree into the cockpit.   I was amazed I didn't lose 'face' and content to have the Allison's replaced instead.

Maybe it was the way both his wings hit my FE... I don't know.
