I was dropping bombs from a b17 on a bomber hanger, as the bombs exploded, a plane was flying over the hanger and died in the blast. This gave a laugh to all who saw it.

I've killed myself going too low to a bomb I've dropped. I've never been killed by bombing a friendly gv

Have you guys seen Glasher's film of him killing a set of Lancs that flew under his AR-234 with bombs

Hell, I've actually been ASKED by a friendly GV to dive bomb them in order to knock out an enemy GV sitting next to them, 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.

One of my favorite AH1 moments:
In FSO (different event name back then) my squadron was supposed to spawn with loaded Jabo's, ditch the ords to provide fighter cover, then rearm and go Jabo on what is left of the targets. While the entire squadron of 12 (or 11?) was packed on the runway 30 seconds into the frame, someone released a rocket, sending the entire squadron back to the tower...
We respawned, took off and this time waited till we were airborne before releasing the ords - however, nobody looked down and again half the squadron was sent back to the tower after being hit by falling bombs or the blasts under them...
They respawned again. Later, the logs showed a huge number of deaths and illegal respawns that caused much arguments on the forums :)

haha, exactly that happened to me last year...

was about to shoot down a lancaster while he was calibrating his bombsight, but didnt have enough time to climb. So was just gained some speed and was trying to pull up to his belly.
Then suddenly... shhhhhhhh, <crashing sound>, tower...   epic fail...
That happened to me while I was flying my 262. :uhoh

Never egress from attacking bombers by flying below him on his bomb run. You can think about it, but dont you do it!  :old:

I've heard that it was a successful tactic during WWII.

I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say. Bombers killed friendly bombers because they were underneath them on the bomb run. I dont know what happens if a friendly bomber hits another bomber while bombing but I do know what happens if an attacking fighter flies into a bomb.
