Just a usual sortie for a Havoc pilot...
« on: December 12, 2012, 06:00:03 AM »
Cobia on finals last night after a furball


Oh yeah, did I mention he only had ailerons and one engine to fly 18 miles home and land with  :)



and a couple of fighter kills to boot.
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.

Cobia, you stud.   :rock




I love that bird, and the p39.

On a side note, i do wonder how much the A-20G will change when it gets a model update, regardless  i just hope it looses that glitchy..snap thingy it does at higher speeds, someday.

I've got a 6-pack that says Cobia's Havoc beats your 410 like a rented mule 5 out of 5 easy.

Put down a Corsair missing both ailerons and the left flap last night. LOT of fun to steer with just that rudder and all that torque, lol.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
