[pugg666]

here's mine

Query results:


 pugg666 has 0 kills and has been killed 1 time in the P-51D against the Ar 234.
 
and no i didn't crash beside it trying to vulch it on the runway  

I was at about 24k the 234 was at about 15 or so. I hit wep, roll over and dive, 234 starts manuevering when i get close. I start maneuvering myself, pull a little too hard on the stick and voila both my wings are fluttering in the breeze.

come on...who's man even to admit how much of a dweeb ya are??

I've had so many .. (including pulling my wings off).
My worst was when I was coming into to land for the 3rd time in a long sortie (I'd re-armed twice and gone back for more). I had 6 kills at that point but fluffed the landing and over shot the run way. I was so annoyed that when I was trying to turn round to get to the re-arm pad I under-estimated my speed and applied too much throttle : flipped the a/c and died.

Most embarassing death...

How about a horrible string of them in a few short hours?

Had to be when the Dweebs of Death lead by Tone and Cman knocked 3 "dream team" Flying Pigs WB con dueling teams out of the 2v2 tournament without a single guns kill.  4 collision deaths and 2 augers if I recall correctly...  I was one of the collision deaths.  I somehow managed to ram cman with my rudder as he overshot, the final frames on my screen being a quick view of his propellor then engine appearing inside my cockpit from behind me.  The shame, the shame.  The worst had to be the worr/mili team.  One of them rammed tone at the merge, which was guns-cold to prevent HO collisions

I attacked a goon with 202, got some hits, he tried to evade, I turned with him, he turned harder, etc etc, eventually he outturned me, rammed me and I died  

was an AK guy, forgot the name thou

for goods sake, if he'd been armed, he woulda shot me down  


the shame <runs screaming from the room>

I HO'd a c202 when in a 109g10 with 30mm.. and lost.

Such things come in my dreams to haunt me.

Back in beta days I dove down on the figher that was too low, since I was too much of a newbie I ended up as a pancake on the floor

I was returning from a sorte with 6 kills, very proud of myself, when I see a low Spit off my nose.  I had about 200 rounds left and decided to take a quick pass at him.  I rolled over and started a gentle dive, waiting untill I was about 500 off befor letting loose with my Dhogs guns.  Just as I was about to pull the trigger, he broke, and like a moron I followed...way...way....WAY to long, and before I knew it, BLAM, he had blown me right out of the sky...that was bad, but what happened next was really embarassing.

About 3 minutes later I see him on Ch1 asking whats the best joystick to buy for aces high, because using the mouse to fly made it to hard to control the plane

Took off in a Tempest and ran out of fuel (25% for some reason).  Not a problem, I can see a friendly airbase down there.

Well, I missjudged my speed and stall before making the field.

[pugg666]

ouch that hurts 2late !
your in the lead so far  

[mrfish]

wow it's tough to pick just one.

probably losing control and compressing my g2 while trying to down a low c-47

[Karnak]

I was at 29,000ft in a Ta152H-1 when I saw 2 P-47s at what I guessed was about 4,000ft below me.

I dove on them.

As it happens they were more like 9,000ft below me and I compressed while diving towards them.

I was unable to pull out of the dive and slammed into Swedish ground at 570mph.

Doh!!!

[Kweassa]

Simular to Tac's situ.

 I was outzoomed by a C.202 in a 109G10.

 Boy, that was embarassing.

Hi all,
 Most of my deaths are embarrising but 2 spring to mind.

 The 1st was once while being harrassed by a spit when I was flying a B17 I did not have much alt so diving etc was out of the question anyway we traded a few shots and I took some minor damage then he just sat there just out of gun range.. I sat in the rear turret watching him closely and flew straight into a mountain  

2nd happened offline    I was trying the D9 just after it came out, went for a slow pass on one of the drones, stalled and went straight in. Anyone else been killed by a drone?  

TTFN
