My "Frenchy Story",, by RV6

It's Sat morning & I figure to sneak in one quick flight while the tribe is saddling up for the shopping trip.

I'm in a Spit-IX, all alone, hi ovr the water, approaching nme base 6 nm ahead. One lo-slow dot takes off and heads out ovr water (towards me).. No backup, no other planes anywhere!

The thing has got big broad wings, and wobbles in/out of stall, obviously HEAVY w/ bombs..

A BIG FAT P47,, Wallowing its way out at 100'AGL !!

I powerdive,, knowing that he's got nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, and no way to make me stop!

He does a slow coordinated turn, trying to head back to base ack (too far away! HA!) Does not jettison bombs!

AAAAaaahhh~ YEah~ Mine, Mine, MINE!!

Zooming up his 6, right on the water... he didn't even bother to jink! He knows its' over, I know it's over...

1000' yds,, 900',, 800',, 700' (leaning closer to the CRT),, 650',, (finger takes up slack on trigger) 525',, 400'!! 350!!!!! The big jug literally FILLS THE HUD!..

Wifes' sour, reddened face pops in front of screen.. and yells:

ARE YOU GONNA PLAY THIS STUPID GAME ALL DAY! I AM AT WITS END WITH YOU!!!!

KRASH, SPLASHO~ (into the drink goes my Spit)

"SYSTEM: Frenchy has shot you down"

He then issues this to me on CH-1

"Hey RV6? I filmed that, you want me send you a copy?"

I'm now writing this message from state prison. Guess why?

Buh-Bye Mon Ami,, bon chance~

RV6 ..

awww Frenchy .... as one of your continual adversaries in said virtual skies.. you will truly be missed.

those times where i would see a lone high p47 or you'd see a lone high Dora... i think we both knew what we were in for... a great fight

i almost called out on CH1 last night asking if anyone had seen you lately.

well as stated you are truly THE class act everyone in the AH community should aspire to be. best of luck and i really hope to fly with you again soon!
