Saw a lot of Chutes today, if not bailing is still in the rules maybe we should remind some people.

You can ride your chute down to the deck. You risk getting "killed" but that is not an issue. 

If you are a pilot running around on the ground, you should tower out. 

You can't be in a position to draw ack or sneak up on reloading planes on a deacked field to execute pilots.

The best thing to do is tower out in the air.  But as soon as your feet hit the ground, you should tower out.

Mine!!!   LOL   But I was in a Ju87 and had a long fight to die where I did. 

I applaud Branch37 for keeping me alive as long as he did being out of taters and getting jumped by 2 turning into 5.

Overall, I applaud Axis side for implementing the plan down to the details. 

Well done!!!!

There is a bonus for pilot survival. Not dying or being captured is worth pts to your side. It will be a feature of all of my setups from now on.

I killed that spit about 6 seconds after he got you lol.

Then 2 of his friends chased me out over the channel and had a white knuckle, drawn out dogfight on the water.  I'm not sure why, but the spit broke off and headed home, but the hurricane stayed in and eventually took off my wing.

My question is why was Branch saving you when he was supposed to be saving his XO.  You know how hard it is to stay behind a hurri 1 with a 1k bomb strapped to your Stuka  :joystick: :x

Hahaha!  I remember your fight.  You were close enough for me to take a swipe or two.   I still had my bombs strapped too.  Thinking I should have tossed them and gone directly to fight mode...

That was a hell of an engagement we ran into trying to go feet dry.  Every time we thought we could get a Ju87 out another was jumped.  We managed 2 to escape and get to target.

Besides...   ...everybody knows that you are supposed to "save the slippy".  It is sort of my "thing"..

I saw you fly past me :eek:, well at that point I was still behind him though.  Probably got the usual "rat will be fine" thought ran through your head, or maybe it was the "rat will be a good distraction" thought  :headscratch:.  either way I got to bed early for work :D
