ya just some tough luck we've all been there.  I've got the 1 ping deaths too, everyone has.  I gotten my own cv puffy ack to shoot me down too as everyone complains about.  It just one of those things that happens, you can either go NW, W, SW, S, SE, E, NE, or N.  Thats the only thing I do for the most part, your going to complain from time to time but don't let it overwhelm you, get upping.

If they were wooden they would be tougher.  They are aluminum and very fragile.

Hmm someone told me spitfire wings were wooden..  :headscratch:

Either way Spit wings are not the strongest.

He said his WING came off, NOT instant tower. NOT only do you NOT play the game, you do NOT have basic reading comprehension skills..................


To the OP: Yea, it sux :airplane: :salute




NOT
it was a figure of speech...i know his wing came off, i clearly read it. if you could read tone on this forum, then you would have gotten it. you obviously do NOT have any idea how stupid that remark was.

The faster you go, the more likely you are to get hit  :rolleyes:

I made a 400+ mph dive through the old vh base with only 2 auto acks and 1 manned ack before and took an engine hit and pilot wound...

Soon after, witnessed a guy glide dead stick doing about 100mph through from one end of a large airfield to the other at an alt of 1k. I just sat on the runway like a deer in the headlights waiting to see what would happen as he got closer and closer until he was able to launch a tater at me before finally being taken down by the ack.

Ack only fires at cons within 6K of field, no? So getting hit at 7.5 pretty good trick.

Wooden winged aircraft in AH, so far as I know, are:

La-5FN
Mosquito Mk VI
Mosquito Mk XVI
Yak-9T
Yak-9U

La-7 might, but I recall reading that by the time the La-7 came around the wings were being made of aluminum.

i would think that your harder to hit the faster your going, when your going slower you give the ack more time to aim.

BTW, there are no "wooden" or "metal" planes in the GAME. I will let you all figure it out yourselves.
