I avoid large groups of laggy bombers like the plague in a 262. About once a year I forget and do it again only to remind myself not to.  Most of the time I don't even see the tracers of the bomber that hits me. Once I made a successful pass on a set, got well clear and started to reset my attack then I heard bullets hitting me and my engine was smoked. I thought maybe an escort got me but nobody was close and the film confirmed it. It was just the bomber's crappy connection. Of course he deserved the hit that he got but it is still lame. I won't take a jet up there and have it mistreated like that. :D

this is excitement, and after 50 minutes of 'boredom' (read: huge amounts of laughter and fun, plus Mulligan singing for us) it is even more intense. I just think if you can't enjoy this you lack imagination.

I'm sure all your posts are on your personal boards. That being said these are for the AH community.

I have great times in game when I can find someone to fight.

Fun last night too when general rox was blowing a fuse while losing bases. He said I was useless. Maybe because with all his ranting on knight channel I asked him why he had not sent anyone up to protect strats. He logged not long after. I can only figure he goes to work to relax after a long hard night of fighting in AH.

Let me ask you though, how can an hour long bomber/escort mission be less boring than spending so long reading the crap we type on these forums?
