gone to long... forgot how to do "pilot sh#@"

[Citabria]

you know the priceless overshoots that send some uber plane out in front into a hail of gunfire with the mere thought of wanting them dead after they dropped in on your six. those magic moments that rain spitfire and lgay7 parts all over the rolling terrain.

i still get a few of those special moments but often i seem to be the dope making the dumb mistakes lately.  (omfg i did not just overshoot that k4 in my k4 after bouncing him and let him kill me#!@#... yeah that happened too)

its times like this that one must resort to flying a 262 on the deck in sfma off hours arena with 300+ people in one tiny corner of the tiny map... pop 9 of them when their not looking or ignoring a thousand check sixes from the cloud of p51's that descended from low orbit and failed to get a shot on my jet.

then feel exultant about still having "it" so reup a 262 for another mission of "pilot sh#@!" glory.

then promptly find myself outmaneuvered by the ground as a 700mph lawn dart next to a c47 that rumbles overhead a few hundred yards away.

the word noob  echos across the rolling terrain.

[StokesAk]

Auguring 262s trying to kill goons is my specialty.

[DREDIOCK]

It'll come back to you Im sure.
Much to the regrets of alot of folks here.


In the meantime. to paraphrase a line in Top Gun

"Festers dead! wee haaa"

 

[Citabria]

I did manage to ditch a 190a8 with no vertical stab after colliding with a zeke though... i felt special after that much gyration and oh sh@#! maneuvering to keep the plane coordinated resulted in not being dead.

[Smkn]

Did Top Gun just get mis-quoted..... on a flight sim board?!?! 

The Flight Instructor was "Jester"

JESTER'S dead...

(Where'd WHO go?!)

-Smkn-

[Plazus]

Fester, do what I do... strafe GVs in 262s going over 500 mph.

[TwinTail]

Not a noob Fester, the fight the other day was good you just seemed to burn your E really fast which actually caught me off guard. Usaully someone with that much E zooms by and sets up again. the fact that i was 100% fuel and just off the runway is beside the point. BTW the FU on 200 was a little uncalled for :\

[nimble]

I'm going to be coming back with a new stick, new box and giving a trackIR a go. I feel your pain, I'm going to be a scorepad for months.

[gpwurzel]

Bout time you 2 were both back, even if it means many more deaths for me (in the very limited time I currently get to fly)

Good to see ya both,

oh I feel the pain...been gone for something like 2 years and it seems like I'm sitting still while these guys tear me to pieces, but I'm still loving every minute of it.

After something like a week of flying, just tonight I landed my first few kills since coming back. All I can say from my experiences is laugh at the mistakes but do try to learn from them.

[Banshee7]

I think DRED knows that Smkn...  Citabria's in game name was (may still be) Fester..

dude....its 200 its always called for


 

[Simaril]

At least, Fester, be thankful that you had ability to lose in the first place!

I'm back after a long layoff, and my brain just doesn't work well with plotting 3D environments. Your prognosis, sir, is MUCH better than mine!

Yup. Exactly why I said to "paraphrase"
