Many ppl. can deack entire field without being killed. You need some expirience for that.

Go to training arena and ask someone to show you, then get some training in TA or offline.

Because you are taking off from a base that has an enemy CAP overhead?

Sorry- joke! What Fariz said, acks are easy to kill once you learn how to spoof it.

Hehe, I made yesterday several passes past V field in attempt to test AR234's durability..
those hardly hit when I was going straight, but when I did do little turning, ping pong..
then I flew with one engine for several passes almost over the acks until second engine finally got hit.

seems like fire is more random now than it was long time ago when i tried acks last time.
