Some day you too can learn to land a P38 like me...

...I haven't lost my touch.  SAPP landing refresher course.

Darn hedges are tough in this game.  No clue where all the parts went either.  Must be scavangers following my 38 around.

I don't get it....you came in no eng, misjudged hedgerow and barely made a ditched landing. Kinda seems every day avoidance to me ....but I do like seeing you make mistakes like everyone else  :lol

Ya'll think this is funny, but right now crew chiefs up in heaven are making the rain with tears for your transgressions.


one day i hope HTC pays them back, by having you spawn with a inoperable p-38 or two with little pink sticky notes saying "I told you that was the last time, so i hope you enjoy your flight. - Your crew chief". :rock :salute


Joking aside, very nice.

Lmao, Dan, every time you post one of these, you crack me up.

Barko, anytime you want to take your 38 up against the decent sticks, let me know so I can watch. That said, 25 isnt shabby at all.

Stop vulching and or rearming time and time again  :aok

If you're actually fighting, there is no way to accumulate that many kills in PJ without geeking it up a bit, unless your soul, akak, del or cork! Hmm, I take that back, cork is kinda "goofball" like me and would never have the patience to accumulate that many scalps :D

Shreck he definately rearmed but he could have been flying with a wingman, headhunters used to piss me off in the MA because you would get on one and the other guy comes right in behind you :salute

Headhunters are great! A few of them taste like chicken  :aok  but only a few :salute

I like their style!  Although a "GANG" of 80th 38s makes me----> shudder  :uhoh

I don't think Barko has ever been in the "HeadHunters", although he has been in a lot of squads. I know his 38 flying isn't that good, but now we know his "Photoshop" skills are very good.   :D
