It's been around 15 years ago when I've done similar. Also around that time, I was waiting for my old squad to finish up a take as I was gooning some troops in close. A desperate set of low-flying B17's passed over me, guns blazing at me as I flew my C47 along a mountain side waiting to bank a right turn into town.

I was watching where I was going. Bombers smashed into the mountainside.  :D

The only time since I started playing in '04 when I landed three kills in a C47. Good piloting.  :D

You know I cannot think of a time that a harsh word has been spoken over a game play error by a player..  That is pretty impressive.

I remember my very first bomber mission with the late ET so many years ago.  The missions were quite large then.   I was assigned a hanger and missed it.  I told ET I had missed my hanger.  ET said," Don't worry.  You will get it next time."  Those simple, kind words have stuck with me from that day forward.

He was the BOSS. Hasnt been the same flying bomber sorties since

Only time I ever rage quit was when Fyntime had de-acked and white flagged one of those super bases. The spawn was camped and the place was crawling with fighters. I somehow snuck a goon right off town and released troops. The last 2 were about to go in and BAM...lost connection. Somehow it does not read as a capture as the base was not ours when I got to log back in. I think troops die if you get disconnected FYI,.
