Last night I barely made it back to the carrier with a shot-up Hellcat, and on landing it became clear that one of the main gears was gone, as I went sliding down the deck, and the prop chewed big chunks out of the deck.
I eventually stopped, smoking and minus a wingtip or two, and guess what I see at the bottom of my screen... the reloading/refueling message. I think our ground crews are a bit overzealous, but it got a chuckle out of me (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif).

Is it immoral to strafe the enemy ground crew.

Hell man! Stop your whimpering! Chin up and all of that. It will still fly you just have to work a little at it. Damn it man even the ground crew can see that!
"Mr. Scott, why aren't those wing tips repaired yet!"
Or better yet, "Damn it Jim, I'm a pilot not a magician!"

I knew that the picture Jimbear snapped would not pass without one C-Hog whiner chiming in... (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

I just meant to say that when u 6 airplane, covering each other as squadmates, the Chog can be avoided. But it's arena representative, 5/1 C/D ratio (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) Everybody chooses his fun/pride, no biggie.
