I would love to see 2 bomber missions, co-alt with each others, suddenly bump into each others in the skies. Escorts fighting Escorts while 13+ bombers from both missions fire at one another as they pass by!  :)

"One away, two away, three away, four away...."  :D

A very rare occurance but the most fun you can have in a bomber.

I actually just got done dropping my ord when I noticed him traveling the same relative direction so I just merged over towards him till I was close enough to open fire with my gun batteries errr gunners I mean.

I've done it a couple times before, but never at 15K+ like you did.  Mine were either 5-10k fights because they were quick sorties, generally bombing fleets or me diving down is say B-26's on some B17/B24's.

Anyone from the Warbirds 2 days remember Tone's Battle of Trafalgar scenario?  Lines of B-17s, manned with multiple gunners, with a 50 knot crosswind to keep things interesting.  Good times indeed.

He gave the best fight he could, but he only got one of my bombers compared to me getting all three of his.

I would love to see 2 bomber missions, co-alt with each others, suddenly bump into each others in the skies. Escorts fighting Escorts while 13+ bombers from both missions fire at one another as they pass by!  :)

Seen it, been in it, got killed in it.

Damn B-17s minced our 24s

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but a while back me and the rest of the 357th were dickin' around in the DA, and we had done a few low level knife fights in the trench, so the remaining 6 of us decided to use the bomber feilds for a bomber v bomber fight. It was good fun indeed. 3 boxes versus 3 boxes, with all the ack you could want. Though we didn't WANT any. It was great fun, was hard trying to maneuver the damn things without losing your drones. But the initial head on pass was just crazy fun. After that it was like a horizontal turn fight, felt like we were using boxes of flying destroyers.

Was great fun, would do again. +1

Actually a long time ago, that happened. I dont have the film, but there were about 5-6 on 4-5 bombers. All with drones, and we came out ok. Dont have that film anymore. But was a nice fight for a few mins. There were no escort though. Jsut buffs.
