Title: Lucky AH coffee cup
Post by: waystin2 on October 15, 2007, 03:42:52 PM
Anybody else have good luck items while flying?  Mine is a ceramic "double expresso" coffee mug.  Kill count is always higher when I have my mug.  My wife keeps it clean for my designated AH nights.  Nothing like good ole wife flak backing you up!  Would love to hear if others have lucky items also...

How about a Good Luck ride ?  Like is there a ride where you just seem to always get lucky in ?  For me it's a Mosquito - for whatever reason I tend to pull things off that I shouldn't, and have a habit of making it home (albeit most times only on one engine with major control surfaces gone) :aok

Conversely, my curse ride is the P-38.

my dog tags, my wedding ring, and the hat that Shifty gave me.  If I'm not wearing all of them I feel weird.  Not to mention the TIR would have to be super glued to my forehead.  

I find the less I've had to drink the better I fly.  Conversely the more I've had to drink the less I care about dying.  Got to find that PERFECT balance. :D

A bud Light bottle, not any particular one, just one that isn't empty..

the empty ones are bad luck.

it is also important that I face the label towards me when not drinking, if I set the bottle down with the label facing away an La7 spawns D1.0 high 6...

Lack of items. I fly best naked, no cloth resistance. Also I hang better, in the air.
Naked man shot you down

Looks like a wrinkly dog nursing puppies to me.  I could be wrong though.

Ugh...only slightly less shocking than my 1st guesses:  aborted fetus or a gutted pig.

She seems to do a lot with little critters and pigs.  Not really my taste.
