Title: Possibles damages?
Post by: lulu on June 07, 2012, 09:13:12 AM
If You try a maneouvre that is is not possible
then will you get possibles damages or will you explode too?

I ask this because i saw a plane that attempted
to do an impossible reverse on me and  it exploded.

I putted some bullets on it before it attempted that maneouvre.

You probably hit his pilot and he blacked out during the maneuver and was pilot killed.

Do you remember what kind of plane it was?

Could have disconnected too...

Pulling Gs (negative or positive) while you have a pilot wound will speed them up. Most likely he brought it upon himself by pulling too hard and he was near death.

"most likely" but can't be sure without more info or a film.

This is not correct, g's while wounded has no effect on the pilot wound.

I find that interesting, anytime I ever pull less then 6G's while wounded its automatically a blackout, also when landing - doesn't matter if you waited till a blackout, soon as you set gears down to line up you black out again.

Always thought it would be on a Timer like 20 seconds for the first blackout....15 seconds for second.....10 seconds etc, however its always variation every time.

Still feels that way and when you'd about to land, especially on a Carrier, right when you need it least, BAM, you're damage control's practice for the day. I bet it's some fort of 'Murphy's Law' coding, isn't it? :bolt:

HiTech is yanking all your chains... He sits there, watching every plane with a pw...watching...waiting...THE N when you're about to pull a shot or about 5 seconds from landing BAM! Blackout!  :ahand

But they DO affect frequency of blackouts and fatigue, correct?

How do you know how many G's you are pulling.  Not trying to be a smart alleck I actually just want to know.

Check your Accelerometer....

When you pull harder then 6g's you black out, pilots in WW2 did not have G suits to stop blackouts.

I use the  Accelerometer to gauge my G turn, so I don't black out, pilots lose a good portion of SA in a high speed turn, I can't remember the ratio but its 25 % for every 90 degrees you turn, adding a black out drops that further by 40%.

You probably hit his pilot and he blacked out during the maneuver and was pilot killed.

I would wager that, or perhaps a real big pocket of lag, if it was only seconds after you shot him up (the lag would also explain some :confused: maneuvers).  He might of also bailed or DCed.

I've never seen in AH, other than augering or destroying yourself within your own blast radius of ord (or with KS on) where a pilot can instantly destroy their own plane through their own actions (tear it in half though, sure, but then you'd see the pieces falling to earth).

I got used to looking at the G meter till I started flying the 109F-4.

3 things.

1. The airplane was a spitfire.

2. Yestarday i had a 1 vs 1, me in sbd vs a p47d-40. I won but 1 second after i heared a hit.
   I thought from the intensity of the sound that i was seriously damaged but not. The only damages
   were those i got during the duel.  Puffy ack?  Friendly one because i was on friendly field !?

3. If a duel is near a field but not too near and your plane reach zero speed, then puffy ack could be
   more precise the usual?

no such thing as an impossible move,

internet lag maybe.  Film or it didn't happen.

I have two films with impossible happenings. One I was in a P38G and I get a Spit16 to over shoot allowing me to remove his entire left (think left) wing and turn for home. Said Spit then makes a controlled, middle speed 180 degree turn, pulls a perfect shot on me at 1000 out and pop, I'm down. Oh, did I mention all 4 guns fired even though he had only 1 wing?  :huh

Second one I think HTC lost interest on finding the reason... I was at 14.5k over a field in a 38 doing maybe 300, just circling waiting for a hangar to pop. Suddenly I have a wing just fall off. HTC has said nothing hit me and the last email I received, they still had no clue what made it happen.

Impossible moves and happenings aren't impossible unless you think about the fact if they happen, then they can't be impossible, now can they?  :D

I want to clarify a point.
The p47D was exploded and after 1 or 2 second i heared an hit.
