Title: Burma Backwater Screens Frame 1-3
Post by: TUK on May 06, 2011, 11:15:10 PM

I tried so hard to get this bird back. Some enemy actually felt sorry for me and let me go. Then this Ki61 came back to ram me eventually....

Thought for sure I was going to be credited for this Seafire, but he must of got away or got killed by someone else.

 :salute Imadot.

Your formation was impressive.  I heard a lot of comments on VOX about how tight you guys were.

Actually made it difficult to pick out a target.. the icons got the way..

I'll have to remember to cycle those off next time..

And switching to cannon from DT might help     :bhead

Nice pics guys! :aok I have a couple to share. WD40 was tasked to Sweep for the A37 attack force.  We ran into the Satans Playmates' and the 49th Fighter Group. Salute Gents...
Ps. Yes I had my tailhook dwn the whole frame without knowing it..... :bhead

WD40 & the Gunfighters over A37....

Dang ya guys!!!

That was an impressive show of force.   :salute to you all at A37. 

And I still can't apologize enough to the 325th.  Our early end to FSO capping A37 made us available to gun for the 325th.  I am afraid that we did more damage to them than help.  That was an impressivelly tight formation.  As we were shooting at the attacking allied planes, we inadvertently shot down friendly bombers as well.  Man do we owe the 325th BIG!!!   

 :bhead

Over all, this was a great month in FSO.    :aok

Still...   ...sorry 325th....  we tried!

I had a lot of fun in the last 2 frames! I'm always hesitant flying bombers in FSOs, but it always seems like those are always the most fun! I was smiling all night after this happened:

A big <S> to Lothmog who was flying the KI. Looking at it from his view, he was actually lined up on SIRB, having tracked our formation, and making a textbook slashing attack. Sucking as bad as I do in bombers, you can imagine my surprise when I actually hit him.  :lol
