Title: How To Auger With Style

First, you go into a steep dive to gain speed. Now decide where you want the show to take place at. I selected the Indestructable hangar at P62. Let everyone know your intentions on 200. This way they can witness the spectacle.

Barrel roll and line up your destination. In my case I went a step further and remained inverted.

Hold steady, you do not want to go in too early. This is the final chance to change your mind.

Now you have reached the point of no return.

Embrace yourself, now is the point you realize you don't care about your stats. What is 1 death going to do to your score? This way you can up at another base and find a more exciting fight.

OMG LOLOL !!!!!!!!!!!!  Raptor , heard you talking bout that, didn't know what you were saying. I never worry about dieing either i just crash or bail so i don't have to fly back, i can just up immediately and find more action. Nice 38 flying by the way, big for you:aok

BLOODY NICE FLYING!!! Awesome idea too. I saw a plane try to auger just the same way today. Tried to kill me by augering into me when i was a GV. Just gave me a free kill though.

I'd give that dive a 9.9!!



Woulda been a 10, but you just missed the hangar's convergence target....

:rofl :rofl




Very nice flying, BTW

damn I thought it was my speciality! I do it even when no one else is watching!

Brings the thought to mind about whether a falling tree makes a noise when no one is there!

What am I talking about....just bored at work!

Nice pics, I would like to see one with a lanc next time!

It's the font on the skin, they can be flipped and it will look the same. The font name is like armarillo USAF.

I wonder what it looked like for someone in the hangar setting their converence...

I like how the "131" is right-side up, even though the plane is upside down.


It is also, displaying the right side markings, on the left side of the plane.


So basically, the plane rolled, over but the markings didn't.

I don't know , but I remember Capt Howdy from the movie The Excorsist......... Is it one of your evil tricks?:confused:

If my Corsair starts to levitate off the hanger deck I'm calling a Priest.;)

That movie came out when I was 12. I remember my older sister took me to see it. It scared the crap outta me. A friend of mine had a Ouji board. I always told him to get rid of it, or Capt Howdy would get him.:lol
