Ahh so vulching builds a good character. Interesting.

He's not saying that.

Vulching is a object lesson meted out to someone trying to take-off, land or rearm at a hot field.  :devil

Look at it this way.
At least vulching is vastly more historically accurate then say...Dive bombing B-17's

I consider it a vulch if your wheels are on concrete. While I think it's pointless and stupid, some people enjoy it. If I had it my way, players wouldn't get credit for killing a plane with its wheels on concrete. No perks, no name in lights.

If they're wheels up, then they can maneuver and is no longer considered a vulch in my book.

Some think that a it's still a vulch until they have reached 2K and 350mph.

Some even think it's still a vulch after they've been airborne for 20 minutes.



Don't get caught up in all this technical stuff. If it's red then it's dead!  :aok

Some think its a vulch every time they are shot down

Taking off and landing is a vulch, and if you're go to do both while your field is capped or someone with a k/d of .01 flying in your ack then thats your own fault. Everything else is being shot down, your poor SA and planning is not my problem if i catch you 2k from the field on climb out.

The definition of a 'vulch' is rather simple.  It's just shooting down a plane that is in the process of either taking off or landing.

Yup.  And it's a lot of fun.  Especially when I send flaming back to Earth the frustrated guy thinking I don't see him "sneaking" out of the hangar.  Good times indeed.

And in response to the OP.  120 seconds?  Are you kidding me?  You'll get exactly 1 second before I enjoy hammering you back into the ground.  Provide some examples of WWII engagements where the pilots of any Air Force allowed their enemy to get off the ground, climb, and accelerate so that the base capture would be more fair.  I think your expectation might be a bit unreasonable.
