C-47 squad?
« on: June 19, 2009, 06:05:36 AM »
Is/are there any dedicated C-47 squads around?

It would be a blast upping +15 C-47's :D

(if the way is clear of course!)

I remember bish dropping about 5 loads of C47' troops on a port with vh up one time and wirbels out.   They all got massacred in their chutes  and the follow up JEEP mishun was the quickest 10 kills ive ever got in a seafire.

we've been known to run the occasional 8 goon NOE resupply mission into a capped base - hilarious! :aok

Vanscrew and I used to run our huge Goon missions to take V-bases. 2 Typhoons and about 20 goons.

Haha that must've been fun! Seeing 20 goons over your field must be a pretty sight, I'd let them take the field :D

I was in a ROOK jeep race with 1 of my old squads a few years back in MW

There was around 10 of us + a few other rooks all in all about 16 of us racing to a V-base.. very funny

Can you say 'out of ammo'?



If there was a C47 squad, then someone flying one would win the screenshot competition (Market Garden type picture).

I think even most of you could manage 20 tater hits on goons with that amount of ammo...   :t

Ya, you could but, I doubt that a 262 could kill every C47 in the group. I doubt that you won't miss though. I'm counting if the C47's dodge and weave and try to manuver.
