I just looked it up.  From Tour 108 through tour 110, I had 31 kills and only 4 deaths in the Hurri 1 (7.75 K/D), at around 12 sorties in the hurri 1.

This tour I've flown 2 sorties, have 6 kills and 1 death.

I really like the Hurri 1, I've flown it a lot (but stats only say like 12 sorties in 3 tours [7 pf which was tour 109]).

As you all know, I love my Hurri 1.  It was the 303rd aircraft during the BoB.  A battle in which they succeeding exponentially in revenge for what the Nazis did to their homeland, Poland. 

Too bad they couldn't shoot down Bolsheviks at the same time. :P

Yeah, what Obie said.  I've been flying the Hurri-1 for the last 3-4 tours and have had nothing but fun with it.  Was frustrating at first because it's so slow, but is a blast to fly - I love TnB furballs.  I've got lots of films, and want to make a Hurri-1 movie sort of like the SpitV movie I did a while back...maybe soon.

I found out what you can do in the Hurri . You fly it well. (I was under Serenity's handle) There were good fun fights that day, and made me realise that dispite what is said about EW, there is still good fights to be found, if you look for them. <S>

I'd have a better chance in running into a Dodo Bird in the middle of rush hour, walking down the I-5 with two hookers in tow before I see a useful post from glock89- Ack-Ack

The Hurry 1 is one of my all time favorite rides and the Spit 9 as well.   

Obie, you guys need to log on and wing up with us.

Tard7,

Put together a little scenerio and PM the guys to tell them when and what time.

I will be posting missions ( :O       :uhoh) on whatever countries I'm flying.  Missions such as BoB theme (Spit 1s and Hurri 1s targeting German aircraft) and all brit Missions consisiting of Bostons, Mossies, Spits, etc..  Try to provoke some fun.  I've been planning one mission for the past month, trying to get it almost exactly like it happened in real life.

Really? 'Cause I often run some fast brick of a plane down and force it to turn with speed, only to have a horde of cannon-spewing t'n'b planes start "helping" me with that plane on my 12, once I've caught the damn thing for them. So it works both ways. :devil Thank goodness for killshooter, I *will* maneuver to fly through the tracers of a green guy shooting over my shoulder if the mood strikes me.
Been there far too many times in the Dora BnZs.  :rolleyes: The omnipresent horde of jackels in Spits who help you with that nme plane you just turned can really test your patience.  Now I'm not above overtaking an enemy by flying right thru one of these guys in order to get "two" kills. :devil

Obie, you guys need to log on and wing up with us.   

Just saw you today.  Surprised to see you over on the dark side (Knights that is. :D)  I'll pass the invite onto the rest of the 71 Squad.  I'll be looking out for you and the rest of the 303 squadron in the future!  It ought to be interesting to say the least. :aok 

Obie

I do have to warn you though, we have Doom flying with us. :D

Just got my new record...8 kills in a Hurri 1, 1 sortie, no rearms.  Died helplessly on RTB (was killed by a new guy  :().  Still had 500 rounds left, too.
