Title: P-40 Barnstorming
Post by: ares473 on December 10, 2009, 02:43:56 PM
Pretty sure I am not the first to do this but I thought it was pretty cool! I gotta figure out how to make a video of this. Just playing around offline getting used to how some of these planes handle and took the P-40E out through some maneuvers. I think this one would wake up those sleepy crew chiefs!  :aok

Went inverted on 2nd attempt.   B-26 with no ord, through a bomber hangar about 4 years back.   AKSketch and ScotchCAF were there to witness it prior to a CAF Squad Night.

   Speaking of that me and Blbird one night flew kates into the hanger deck seeing who could do it and not wreck in the process. I think it was back on the old CVs.

Only a few know this.... There is actually a backpack hanging on the back wall. If you shoot it while in flight you'll pass right through the wall. Great to use if 5 cons are chasing you. Not sure if it works more than once per log-on.

Pfff...  All I see is a screenie from the OP that proves he was traveling rapidly through a hangar...  No evidence that he came out the other side...  And certainly no evidence of ANY of the other claims...   :D

So I guess I'll claim to do that (whatever that is) while blindfolded and drinking a perfectly made appletini...   :D

A welding helmet with a #12 shield works too.
