I'm like the worst wingman ever.  I always end up drifting off and getting myself into trouble with too many bad guys. 

Before taking a couple of years off, I used to have a great time loosely winging with BnZs.  Haven't seen him since I've been back though.

Del has flown my wing the most going back to the Airwarrior days.  Since my SA is so bad, having his SA kept me alive a lot longer.   Soulyss is much the same.  Both those guys know when I've crossed the line of no return and somehow still survive.

In scenarios I've come across some good ones too.  SIK1 suffered as my wing a few times.  I fly like a spastic drunken duck in a crosswind and tend to shoot first, assess the situation later so it takes a lot of patience.

Batfink and Redbull both stand out too as I'd go into a fight and come out the other side, look back and they'd be where they were when we went into the fight.  Again, with my 'flying' that's really hard to do.

Generally I've reached the point where I don't ask for a wingman as I want them to have a good time and not die as fast as I do :)

That's true....but not because you're a bad wing pr pilot....it's because keeping up with, or, having someone keep up with you screws up your rhythm and timing.  I know, because ice accidentally caused your death a few times with my screams for help

No one likes me so I fly alone  :cry

Seriously though, I always enjoy winging with the 80th.  And I've always enjoyed winging with Karaya.  We may up Hurri 1s or run a Candy Mtn. Mission, either way there are going to be several laughs and a good time.  I'm not very good at wingman tactics, mainly because I fly alone.  But at least I'll fly in formation into the battle :)

Nope... I am much much worse.  :uhoh

That's why I have imaginary spirits of real AH pilots as my wingmen. :aok

Badcore and Cobra89 are my usual wings.  They do a mighty fine job of either keeping me clear or using me as bait.   :)  Combination of familiarity and similar flying styles means we usually do more killing than dying and have fun doing it.   

Only had the privilege once or twice to date, but I'd take cactus on my wing any day.  The dude sees everything and is usually in a good spot to kill it.  Add to that he's a tough out.  In a nuclear apocalypse cockroaches would likely ask cactus for survival tips.   :D
