TWICE. I hosed down a spit last night at 120 yards. 4 20mm cannon.  Put enough ammo into him to down a B17, both times.   Then he dissapperd off my screen.  Then he shot me down.  Shortly after this, I got the switched to TCP/IP message. I always ping before I go into the main.  25 pings.  All double digit MS. No packet loss. Same result when I left the MA.  I don't see what else I can do from my end.
 Is it possible to just choose TCP/IP going in? At least my packets would get there sooner or later.
