Title: First few sorties since coming back. Can you say Auger!
Post by: Getback on February 28, 2012, 08:15:23 PM
First 3 sorties the other day, Augered after missing some half way decent shots, rammed a plane head on, and rammed an AFK plane.  :furious All good and fun!

Took a long long flight today because I was cooking and doing dishes. Saw a low 109 deacking a field and dove on him. Too much E and pulled up. Apparently the ack got him, proxy kill. Grabbed back up to head to another base but the base started flashing. Turned back to catch the icon of an AR234. No reason to chase that in my f41A. He gets out of radar range and the town starts flashing, then the base. Figure it's another con. It was, a fairly low set of B24s. Zoom down and take one out. Slowly grab to maintain a bit of an edge in speed over the buffs. Engage flaps, float down and take out the 2 remaining B24s. Lordy those things are a tinderbox. About that time who appears, the Ar234s heading straight for me. They are co-alt and if memory serves me correctly they have no front guns. It's a HO made in heaven. As they zip buy I ping 2 and one explodes and the other is damaged. Then comes a very high set of JU88s. I pull up hit flaps for a little stability and hammer one. No kill but he's smoking. Time to land, 1 minute of fuel left. Not bad for a single flight.

Gotta love those fun complete flights, few weeks ago I took up a C.205 in anger after having a really bad week trying to find a decent fight, either getting Ho'd or picked.

Climbed to 9k and leveled out - ran into Ki-67s and nailed two on a head on pass, they were co-alt so I left the third for friendlies in the area as I seen a Yak-9 and Ki-84, got into a small furball and a pair of friendlies jumped in,
I bagged the Ki-84 trying to stall fight me, and when I finally stalled a Spit 16 was trying to climb up to me but stalled, and bagged him as well.

I decided to re-arm and climb back up to 7k when I was bounced by a pair of Spit8s, first one pulled up far to soon and I put a burst under his belly, I did a long steady climb and the second reversed and tried to climb with me, I ended up going vertical and stalled out in which he was on the verge of a stall - bang got him too.

Heading back from the dar Ring I catch a Typhoon trying to take out ords and dispatched him and landed 7, pretty nice sortie as the perk modifier was outrageous, think the flight was worth over 50 perks.

Been a while since I seen some one pull up too soon. That makes for a sweet surprising shot. Nice run!

The other night I was tasked with protecting one of our ports. I chose to protect the submarine.
