Title: Hi HO, Hi Ho, it's off to......
Post by: Puma44 on September 22, 2010, 10:44:14 PM
I had to keep checking to make sure what arena I was in tonight.  But, sure enough, it seems the "HO" light was on. After 5 passes from the same gent, executed consistently the same, I decided not to execute my sometimes successful "anti-HO" maneuver :bolt:.  Below are some screen shots:

Here, the HOer has set up for another pass and has started firing on the HOee, i.e. me. The reason you don't see me in the cockpit is because I'm hunched down as far as I can and am holding my shaving mirror up on the right side so I can see what this lunatic is going to do next (or again!) :O

As the HOer continues to press in it is obvious this is not going to end well because the HOee is standing his ground and has commenced "anti-HO fire".

As you can see the HOee has started to turn the sides and has now assumed the roll of HOer.
...and then the clash of Titans occurs.

...ending with finely crafted German engineering scattered about the landscape, shortly thereafter half of my right wing smartly folded up and away.

My question is, can't we all just get along?  :rofl
Humbly submitted for your entertainment purposes.  Some outstanding airmanship and grinder fights tonight gents!   :salute

LOL Cap, if AKAK was flying with you I would have ho-rammed you too...  :neener: the two of you within 6k of each other on the same side, a ho-ram saves a lot of needless expenditure of energy trying avoid the inevitable and subsequent   :confused:  :cry  :confused:  :cry
