what's your most embarrasing death ?

[-duma-]

Was cruising at 18k in my Tiffy when I spotted a bunch of low cons. On closer inspection it was a convoy of B17s and C47s trying to sneak under radar height for some reason. Clearly an easy meal for the Tiffy. Throttled back, dived after the rearmost C47, opened fire at 800 yards, making a pass to the right.. his wing sheared off and he veered right into my flight path. At the ridiculous speed I was going at I couldn't even maneuver. Only good thing was I don't think my name popped up as a kill or killer  

Snafu, I swear once when I was practicing gunnery offline a drone teleported straight through me and gave me a pilot wound. I couldn't believe it, and it's never happened since

It was during the big "Rumble" we had. I was flying a crappy Spit I had 12 minutes in,  looking for Bistro (Hristro) when a 109 came screaming down.

I got hit, but stayed up. Exile shot him down, and most of the rest as I remember. I wore out 4 sets of gun barrels killing the "elite" LW types.

Wait, that's not embarrassing.

Ooops, sorry.

The most embarassing...lets see...hmmm  

Was in my Il-2 vulching a rook field at Mindanao, coming slowly at 200 ft alt behind a Spit who was grabbin speed on the runway. Pulled both triggers to make it a quick kill but doesn't checked on what was the secondary fire button set. So, i released 2x100 lbs eggs and blow myself up.

compressing the wings with a LANC at 28,000' while turning. I was flying for 45min... my escorts where pissed! It was a long fall.

What is embarassing for you is that I shot ya down couple of times. Your score is nil though. You were flying N1K every time back then. Pathetic tard.

As for embarassing death, I am with Funked. I was running in A-5 from Jekyll in his A-5 and Hibari in N1K. I taunted them while keeping 6 view and crashed into the hill.

One of many of mine is prolly gotta be when I was taking off in my 109F-4 with a drop tank during an attack on our base.  I'm rolling down the runway and dropped my tank on the ground, but it was a 250k bomb, not a droptank...hehehe.  Dumb move.

I was drunkly vulching a capped field in a Tempest, and to taunt our opponents, I tried to fly thru hangar. A plane just spawned and I rammed him.

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

I did that but with a B-25. I headed up for a enemy field and lost fuel about 5 miles out.  ened up crashing in the middle of the field with my wings shot off by ack.

Sheeeeeit Hangtime, Grab a beer.
Lemme tell ya a little story.

Last night, the Fat Drunk Bastards were flyin' for the darkside (ROOKS) and as I miss wingin' with dem slobs from my ole Bish days, (yes I was even a knit once too) I hooked up fer some sorties.

Now it's late at night, real late, an' we'd 'bout kilt off all them nasty, sheep-lovin' knits who'd we'd hadda drag kickin' and screamin' like lil' girls into the Northwest corner of da map.

So Fatty, Creamo, and I decide we need some mo' victims, we attempt to draw some bishes to A26 with various insults and bribes from their fight with the knits that was goin' on da other side o the map.

Anyways, I saddled up my 190A-5 and headed out to A26, figurin' they's see me and send somethin' my way.

I arrive high above A26, and start circlin' and pacin' like it's ten minutes to quitin' time on a Friday afternoon, just waitin' fer somethin' with a pulse to show, when I spy with my gov'mint issue MK1 eye a Bish Spitter rollin' from 26.

So I roll my 190A-5 onto it's back like a virgin on 'er wedding night, and start pullin' back on stick, ta commence my world famous "Lawn-Dart" dive for which I am reknown for.

I am directly over the Spitter, waitin' fer his break, so's I can roll into him, when I hear this god-awful creaking ripping sound, ya know the one...same noise as when you've been constipated two weeks and it finally brown caps.

I realize, I'm fittin' to lose parts of the ole girl, now Herr Speer mighta done wonders
with production numbers, but my gut sinkin' feelin' is quality control has suffered.

I begin to pull hard on the joystick, (no comments from the peanut gallery or sexual
innuendos from ya'll)

And what should happen? Lost both my wings, now normally I wouldn't care, cuz' hell
they's just 'xtra weight anyways, like my flaps, and rudder, but I start to worry this
time, cuz I'm thinkin' I mighta had an audience.

'kay so now I'm still flyin'...sorta, but I'm checkin' 6 real hard, not cuz I'm worried the
Spitter is there, but to make sure no one saw my attack on 'im.

Unfortunatly Fatty and Creamo saw it.

Talk about embarrassin'

[zapkin]

this one time I got shot down by artlaw.

[Glasses]

After an 8 kill sortie with a dora I was on the deck with a Ki61 flipped inverted for a sec then tried to go upright but got  "Do not move your controls so rapidly" message controls locked I augered.

Don't know if this counts.... it was quite awhile ago....but:

Flying B26, nap of the earth, down at some 50ft or less.  Carrying bombs for a fighter hanger, I'm going to pop up over the target since the ack was down.  Getting close to enemy field, set salvo 4, open doors.  Enemy C202 lifts off coming my way right on the deck... going to try and HO me.  I have no choice really so sit tight and wait to open up with the nose guns.  D2.0.. D1.5... D1.2 open fire...  Pull both triggers out of instinct... was that bombs leaving my aircraft???... damn.... counter says 0 bombs... poof.

I exploded maybe D800 infront of him.... carpet bombed myself.

[Swager]

Was flying a C47 into a downed field we have been trying to capture for about 2 hours. Finally, the field is ready!  I bring a goon in to drop troops.

I can remember hearing Ripsnort, "Go Swager, Go!"  Man this will be an easy drop. We got this field, piece of cake!

I get at edge of field about 750-800 feet, with door open, and select to drop troops.

Nothing! No "Geronimo!"  So I select to drop a drunk again!  Nothing!  I get mad and start selecting like a madman to throw out troops.  Next thing I know the only thing in a parachute is me!! The C47 just kept on going with 10 drunks awaiting to meet their end somewhere, sometime.

I was hitting the ENTER key!!!!

Next thing I hear is Ripsnort, "Swager what's wrong, ya only dropped 1 drunk!"

On top of that, as I am floating down, a enemy Spitfire breaks through the escort, without fire a shot at one of our planes and kills me in my chute!

Oh Boy!  Needless to say, I kinda just logged off for the night!
