What is a Vulch
« on: November 11, 2013, 03:05:00 PM »

how would you define a vulch?  wheels up? taxiing?  dis-proportionate energy states?



Vulching is when you shoot a plane down within 120 sec. after spawn in.    Anything after in my books is considered ack hugging.


Just a personal opinion on the matter. After 120 seconds you should be able to start defending yourself...


Any thoughts on the matter of what is considered a vulch.

My .02 cents ~

An aircraft taking off or landing, with limited E and control surfaces, which is attacked, has been vulched.

Swooping down on an enemy aircraft that has enough E to manuever, ack or no ack, is fair game. May not be a smart move but it's a fair shot.

My definition of vulch is....The shooting of or at any plane that is on the runway/rearm pad or doesn't have enough E to get out of the way after takeoff and especially if they are trying to land.

I see complaints about vulching but I have an arguement for that.
If planes are in your ack at your airfield then you should lift from another field if you're worried about being killed.
If you are spawned in and on the airfield you are a threat and I will shoot your plane  :devil

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.

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.

if you are in range of the ack, you are vulching.

Wrong.

it's my opinion.


if you're out of the range of ack, it's impossible to vulch.
