See, my favorite bomber sortie isn't one where I landed epic amounts of perks (even though I got quite a few ;)) but rather one where I got someone to squirm...

I decided to up my lancs for once in a blue moon... So, I get up to about 20k, and at that alt, I have no issue going AFK, so I set auto pilot, grabbed a drink, let the dog out, and came back and sat down. By the time I got my headset back on and my joystick back up, I decided to just take a peek around and make sure I was good to go, and what do I see? A 262 streaming in from dead 6o'clock. At first I'm saying a variant of "oh crap" as he was too far under for me to deflect my tail gun enough to get him, but he pulls up a bit and "oh crap" becomes "this'll be fun." He reaches d600 and I let loose. Once he hit ~d300 he was spinning down, and the bugger took out my top gunner... Now many would call it good and leave it here, be he couldn't. A few minutes later, I look back and see a 163 chasing me... O.O I hoped to get luck again, and this time *pew pew pew* blown up rocket... Same guy, and he upped a 163 not once, not twice, but 3 times, where he then proceeded to cuss me out over private vox (squeak), call me a hack, and log off. Then I had a successful bomb drop so it was all good... Wish I still had the film... funny stuff.
Sometimes, we just need to remember what the rules of life really are: You only
need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the
WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

I was in 24's going to drop a small airfield and there were alot of low cons so I did my drop.  After I hit all my targets I dropped down to mix it up, long story short I downed 8 of them they kept trying to climb up my direct 6. 


This is where it gets good, I go afk and come back to a single bomber left and I'm on fire.  The guy that set me on fire is still back there and I have no tail turret so I rolled inverted suiciding towards the ground.  I got him my 9th kill inverted using my top gun, I wish I could have landed them all I think I still got 20some perks.

My best bomb run..

Bish where hitting a field of ours. From the tower i could see 2 CVs. I went to a base 2 sectors away and upped a Lanc form with 14 1ks.
After i got to bomb alt of 11k. i started my approach. To my surprise it wasnt 2 CVs it was 4!  All 4 where lined up fairly nose to tail. As I
started the run i set salvo to 3, to drop 9k each CV, only had to adjust course slight for each CV. result 4 CVs sunk in 30 secs lol.

best perk buff run. Ju88s i sank CV n Cruiser in a MW arena, perk mod was 40x got 4000 perks, i was lone knit with 20 rook n 20 bish.
after that HT limited the perk mod hehe.

As the Rooks admiral I coined the phrase:-

"Two Cv's together ALWAYS get SUNK together"

Your story confirms this with a shinning example.   :salute

Every Tuesday night


You know that your landing gear is up and locked when it takes full power to taxi to the terminal
