My apologies to AKqwik
« on: February 13, 2017, 12:01:43 PM »
Failure to clear my field of fire resulted in me Fratting one of his bombers....

Unacceptable, regardless of circumstances...

You can see the "snapshot" which resulted in his death here...(if the link with time doesnt work..11:30 mark sets it up)



I obviously did not see the bombers entering my field of view from the left in real time....focused on the 410 :(

<S>!

To use appropriate 412th terminology he got Kanthed. But it's easy to do in a tight bomber formation.

Easy to do, but easy to prevent as well. Lack of discipline on my part, i.e. not clearing my field of fire, was causal.


Cheers!

ROFL!!!

We have a guy...   

NOBODY wants to be in front of or near NAVCAD.  He kills everything in a radius...   Regardless of green or red.  He gets really jumpy when he hears an engine close.

Pretty typical that the only time a bomber goes down to a quick snapshot is the only time you're not actively trying to kill it :)

As my esteemed squad mate SlipKnoT said, our buddy NAVCAD...yikes watch out! He doesn't miss any enemies, nor friendlies. Bomber and fighter escorts alike  :rofl

Just saw your video here after chatting tonight Dobs. Sorry again for the collision. I was looking at the 38 and 17s above you. Sorry for no sound. I had the wrong audio device selected. I think i need to check my recording settings too. Seems kind of blurry.
