How good of a pilot are you?
« on: April 10, 2001, 07:42:00 AM »
That is my question for you all.  DG ,bradys5, and I went into the training room last night to blow off some steam.  3 hours after I told myself I was going to bed I headed out.  The most fun I have had in awhile was in there.  We did just about everything, but the best was last, dogfighting in JU-88's front MG only.  I have to say this takes a ton of 7.9's to bring a 88 down.  I am thinking of starting up a competition of sorts in there.  Buff vs Buff B-26 vs 88's and such 88's vs 88's 26's vs 26's.  If the interest is there might start up a league of sorts for this.  All I have to say is try it, it isn't as easy as it seems.  So if you can please note whether you would particpate or not.

Some of the most fun I've had in here was when Ruqwick and I dueled it out in Lancasters, turning and burning.
Sounds like more fun to me, Sturm.

We all have a blind date with Destiny... and it looks like she's ordered the lobster.

Thank goodness! I thought I was going to have to confess just how bad a pilot I really am!

Sounds like a hoot!

I remember duelling a squaddie once in Ju52's in Warbirds.

Now that's harder than you may think, since the Ju52 only has rearward firing guns.  The entire fight was an attempt to overshoot your opponent.. to fly out in front of him.. then jump straight into the gunner seat and pepper him with 7.7mm spitballs.

Now THAT was a weird fight!
