heh

the streak ended at 86 kills  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

I was climbing in a spitfire near a2 in knit territory and got to close to a factory...

heard 1 flak burst and lost my left wingtip and augered in trying to ditch forgetting that the spit cant be ditched with left wingtip missing  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)


but no worries was a good streak, my best one yet, very fun and challenging.

I hope HTC installs a current and best streak in the scores  for 1.05 because its the one aspect of scoring I always have fun with. yet with the current score system you only get a chance for one streak per tour. after you die there is no way to keep track of your new streak.

Congrats, Citabria!!!

A great streak, and one I hope to achieve someday.  It's not easy getting that far in the main arena, because people don't fly like their lives depended on it.  Much harder to fly, and live when kamikazes abound.  Also, at least in your case, it can be trying when people decide to take you out just because you have a streak, much less be called a 'hacker' (hacker? whatever).

Well done, ace  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Even though we had disputes, I can only agree with this. WTG !

A streak by pilot who can also ACM, not just fly in one and only manner that former K/D champion used to do.

Still, safe flying is a skill of its own, on par with best ACM techniques.

nice job.

And remember, I did not hunt you because of hate, it was more to add to the drama  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
It was more of a challenge I knew I had little chance of winning.

How many of those were vulches? How many were 1 V 1?

Granted that is a good number of kills but does that mean he's a great pilot? No it means he knows when to run. I saw him last night vulching a base and as soon as a plane got off the ground he ran. Great pilot? NO! Smart pilot? Yes.

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying he's a bad pilot cause he's not he's actually a very good P38 pilot but I'm just saying anyone with half a brain and patience can get a big kill streak.

I didn't rearm at all. landed and exited every sortie.

the whole key is not staying in one place ever and keeping a decent amount of E.

yet I still got bounced numerous times.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I did have some trouble with a few knights who were on a mission to kill me so I switched planes around a bit to keep em guessing.

here is the results I had with the different planes I flew so far (note the death from ack does not show up)


40 kills, 0 deaths in the P-38L
25 kills, 0 deaths in the P-51D
11 kills, 0 deaths in the Spitfire Mk IX
10 kills, 0 deaths in the F4U-1D
06 kills, 0 deaths in the B-17G

93 kills, 0 deaths from enemy players, 1 death from enemy AI  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

I dont Think he can Add mine,,I didnt put up a fight last night he he...So if your not good enough to put up a fight than He realy is to good to count you as a Kill. So i still feel that the game is wrong on how thay only give Cit all the kills. It is nice to know that it is a big map and I dont have the pleasure of coming across him to much. But to be fair and save some face i will say good job, now go away and play anouther game and stop pickin us unfortunate.  <<S>>

You can "rearm" somehow without landing??  What about refueling?   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

U land park on a plate off to the side of the runway and get rearmed and refueled.  Until u actually exit the aircraft(bail, die or step out) it is not counted as a sortie.
