What's all of your funniest kills? Post your stories here.

My funniest kill happend today. I'm now flying the P-47D-30 exclusivly and i was landing at an Enemy airbase since a goon was on the way and i was bingo fuel and a niki spawns on the opposite end of the runway so i'm going 75 MPH on the ground and i strafe the Niki and then turn around and chase it on the ground like a car or something and get the kill

i should have taped it

Some time ago I was flying back home in a Fw190A5 without both wingtips. When I was already very low after diving to my base I spotted a Spitfire in front of me. After the cross, the spitfire came for me. Using rudder I somehow managed to get out from his stream of bullets and he overshot me. He went straight instead of zooming away or turning for me. So I tried to line for a shot and got a couple of 7.92mm pings before he dropped a wing and fell out of control. I got the kill (didnt understand it at first, of course...).

After some questions in Channel one I found out that the spitfire had the left halfwing missing long before crossing with me. He was trying to return to base, but he admitted that when he saw a low 190 without both wingtips, he had to go for me

Was very funny

I was defending a VH near a port. I was in a Panzer, and I saw a B-26 coming in low and fast, straight at me... his target obviously my VH.

I figured "what the Hell" and went down into the main turret gunsight.

First shot, he blows up instantly. He was still about 2.2k away.

lmao for hours after that.

Several months back a small field was getting worked over by Zemke's wolfpack in jugs. FH's were down, so I rolled a TBM with rockets. There were 2 jugs overhead, one had smoke, looked like he headed to RTB. Other Jug start's takeing passes at me. Ducked a couple then he was getting low enough he started trying HO shots. 4 times we passed Head on, each time I'd drop a rocket & a stream of bb's at him, then duck his fire.

Fourth one was the charm, think a rocket hit his engine, I look back and he's trying to ditch. I got the kill but was laughing so hard I almost screwed up my landing.

Still don't believe I survived that sortie, much less got the kill.

Im in my 205 at about 15k, some hot shot zero comes up and wants to tangle. Ok we dould a couple of HOs and revere's i keep getting alt on him, he keeps losing it. I figure if anything goes wrong i can always get out. 205 is strong diver, zero sucks at it. After another HO i ping him with 20mm. He then tries to DIVE AWAY! He levels out with me on his tail and i blast him, he starts saying i cheated. What a turd. It was funny because well he was stupid.

Flying a B-17 at about 20k I watched from the ball turret as an La-5 crept up on me from my low six. At about 800 yds, as he was flying straight and level I fired off a burst, taking of the end of his left wing. He wobbled, moved out of range to my left, regained control, and PULLED BACK IN BEHIND ME FOR ANOTHER ATTACK. A second carefully aimed burst took off his right wingtip. Now it was easier for him to fly, so he just kept coming, looking like some sort of cruise missile.

Do you remember the knight in Monty Python's "Search for the Holy Grail" who loses one arm, then another, then one leg, then the other, but never gives up fighting? I'm thinking I must be fighting him. So I give him another burst and he catches fire. He bailed.

P.S. Anyone interested in most exciting base captures?

One evening I had three wild missions in a row that all succeeded (two in C-47s, one in an M-3).

It was the Baltic Terrain, and we Knights, under Ripsnort's leadership, were taking back our bases in the south.

I first flew a C-47 into A60. The fuel tanks were all in flames; the entire field was thick with black smoke. I circled around to approach the map room for a pinpoint landing from the northwest because there were GVs at the south end of the field. As I come in on final over the north end of the runway, I can see a P-51 and N1K spawning just 50 feet below me. I touched down and came to a stop just yards from the map room as planes took-off and exploded on the runway behind me.

We next captured A61 under similar conditions of blazing fuel tanks and smashed hangers. I came racing up in an M-3. There were a few enemy fighters overhead, but we had many more so they weren't a problem. As I raced past the perimiter of the base at 45 mph I glanced at a destroyed hanger 50 yards to my right. Suddenly I realized that hidden in the wreckage was an enemy M-16!

I just kept going, but he had seen me too, and tracers flew wildly over my head! Our pilots must have been right on him, because he stopped firing after just seconds.

Back in a C-47 at A62 it was another landing through smoke and flames with tracer fire coming from the far side of the field. Another pinpoint landing at the map room and we had captured our third field in less than 45 minutes.

These three missions were the most exciting and successful I ever flew in an on-line sim, and I never fired a shot!

Funniest thing I ever did was a few months ago when I was Rook,I drove an M3 otw a base that had been under under attack for several hours.Countless goons had been shot down as they tried to get near.Anyway,I think it was the baltic map and I rolled an M3 towards this base more for fun than any realistic chance of making it there.The terrain was very hilly and one hill took me a half an hour to scale and I had to do it in reverse cause first gear was too tall.. :)Well,no-one noticed me(except for FlyingDutchman(or was it GD?) who kept checking in on me,laughing at my determination)After an hour and a half,I finally got within vis of the base and watched nme plane after plane pass over looking for that next goon victim.After scaling that last hill in reverse,I turned her around and raced otw the map room.The cap was there,the tension had come to a peak as nme cons(and chutes!) were eliminated by any means possible!I made it to the green room and released the hounds!..Just then an nme P51 swoooped down as the drunks scrambled towards the bar in the map room.He missed,the map room was destroyed and the ack came up and shot the poor bastage in a short instant.It was so funny!..The poor lad in the Stang came on Channel one"How the hell an M3 at that base!!!"I think everone in our country had a good open channel laugh on that occasion..

Just after the release of the Mindanao map, I found myself isolated above an enemy field and shot down by 3-4 enemy fighters. While floating under my chute, I saw I would land close to a shore battery. As I was having a major slump that evening, I decided to hike a bit instead of immediately re-upping and headed on foot towards the big artillery bunker. I spent a couple of minutes walking in and out (through the walls), looking at the details of the structure (nicely done btw). Of course, I got quickly bored and I was about to hit the tower button when I saw an nme fighter lining himself on me for a straffing pass. I decided to play with him and ran back inside the building. I could pass through the walls, but the bullets couldn't so I spent the next minutes offering myself as a bait in front of the structure, then running for cover as soon as the bullets began to fly (I know, I should better get a real life instead). I don't know what I was expecting, I was juts having a break from the take-off / die routine. Eventually, the fighter pilot gave up and left to make some other's life miserable...

Then I see a pair of enemy fighters (P51 and F4U I think) mock dogfighting above the airfield. They obviously hadn't seen me, and at that time a downed pilot didn't show anymore on the dar counter...I believe you understand where I'm going

Yes they did! When the F4U got on his buddy's 6, he let a long burst loose and lost a wing from killshooter...I just couldn't believe this was happening...when he crashed around d1.5, I LMAO reading Victory 1 by deSelys.
I immediately sent a privat msg to explain him how it happened, but he already had logged....

I wish I had it on film

LOL Ghost, that has reminded me another very fun kill of mine.

I was in a Dhog, OTW to drop rockets on a field when I saw Camo low, with a Spit on his six. Calling his attention on the spit I rolled upside down and dived on the unsuspecting spitfire. I started to fire from 400 yards without even noticing that I had the rockets enabled!!!

The rockets were fired between 400 and 300 yards...I think all hit

well, 8 rockets fired in succession on a spitfire...was a nice fireball

I laughed my ar$e off after that one (I still remember camo's private message: "WTF? ROCKETS??")

Had to be that old beta map with the vehicle base that let u go 200mph in a panzer (v56 i think)
Was rolling down the hill and saw a chog chasing another panzer but i was going a lot faster than they were,while overtaking the chog i swung the main gun around to the 3:00 as i was going by and blasted him with an ap, laughed my bellybutton off for an hour on that one

I was in the volcano one night and 54 silly bastids crashed and I got the kills on all of them.

One time I was escorting an Assassin HQ raid in a ta152.

On egress, i was flying along regurges b-17, practicing my high-angle passes and firing cannons for fun in front of him.

needless to say, i hit him on one of the passes

best kill ever!

When the IL-2 first came out, I began doing some low level runs with her. On one mission, I was at about 200 feet AGL. Some hotshot Mustang pilot got an idea and made a dive for me from a good 5000 feet. I saw him, but I didn't shoot him yet. He passed low under me. At that same instant, my finger hit the joystick button, and I released a bomb. "Damnit." I told myself, jerking up to avoid the explosion. "Victory on by semperfi"

I killed him with a bomb....
