I was there to watch it, one sortie no re-arms as I did once already when you posted the challenge I challenged all of TG to do it.
Spitfire sortie, 10 kills no rearms - piece of cake.

First sortie was 4 victories, but I picked a storch and you called "no m3s storches" so I bailed. Second sortie was all fighters :)

Will review film(s). Will honour my part of the deal for each film of 10 that meet the criteria. :frown:
...assuming no funny business...can't fully trust these Top Gun guys, you know,
all that drinking and carousing. :huh

None are gv's or storches. Nice try Midway, you called out a challenge and lost twice now. Instead of 3 days it should be *drum roll* 6 days :)
and your sentence starts now, 6 days without midway on 200 or BBS, fair is fair you made a bet and lost.

After I review film(s) today, make sure no funny business. If I see top gunners killing top gunners, or nothing but runway vulches, well... let's just say film(s) have to show it's legit.
Intent was to show air to air real kills.
Intent matters as much as literal words. :old:

Can't right now, but in about an hour I should be able to. Bombers are fine since they have plenty of guns as long as you aren't vulching them on the runway.

Let this be a lesson, Midway made a bet on 200 and now is backing out of it, Remember he says he will be good if someone gives him back his name? Yeah don't trust the liar.

Give Butcher a break. He owned up and apologized. He changed how he plays and interacts. He is a great guy to fly with and I like him, he is my friend.

My respect for Top Gun has increased a notch, but only just a single notch,.... due to Redbull's excellent shooting, SA, and landing of 10 kills in a Spitfire. :)
As there was only the one film, I will fly silent for 72 hours in honour of, and respect for 1CEMAN, a most outstanding fighter pilot. :frown:
This will be my last post here and on 200 until said time period ends or another credible film shows up. :angel:

It sounds like we need to have a talk with Midway about proper betting techniques. He's doing it wrong.

But... I did post a couple of replies after my agreed to time today, out of habit, so I have to restart the clock as of right now. The replies were accidental and more habit than anything else.

If Midway had been smart he would have required more than the 10 kilz. All a matter of opportunity.
:aok

Really, the only thing truely impressive about doing it in a spitfire is the gunnery required. Of course, something like an A6M2 would be even more impressive for the gunnery. Hell, even a 109 sans gondies would require better gunnery.

Midway what would you do if I landed 10 in a spit?
No rearms

That does include not aiming for m3s, storch's or C47s btw :)
I should of not landed my I-16 tonight, I had 6 kills but only took half a tank of gas still had 80 cannon rounds and could easily of landed 10.
I'd love to see midway pull off 11 kills in a P40, ALT cap of 8k in a furball no rearms.
/Got a screenshot somewhere :devil

27 K in a C-47 and a confirmed solution on a TA-152.

Not saying it isn't an accomplishment in and of itself, just you make it sound like "oh, I got 10 kills in a SPITFIRE, yeah, I'm just that great?"
I mean its a spitfire. Its probably the most docile and one of the most forgiving aircraft in the game.

Forgiving? I have snapped the wings off many spits, and I have yet to do so in a 109.
Also the spit has a WAY nastier stall then a 109, 109's don't flop upside down and spin all the way to the ground.
-
Bleh, no one cares. Just shoot red stuff. Maybe green if it's Butcher since he won't admit he has STDs.

Never had a stall in a spit that wasn't easily recoverable. And the spit seems more stable up to the point of stall, even if its stall is a bit more violent. It counts for some.
Again, not saying that its not a good accomplishment, just that its not any more impressive than landing 10 kills in a Ki-61, or a Yak, or a 109.

Fly Spits some then, he's speaking the truth.

Then you've never been in an inverted stall in a Spit. If you don't know what you're talking about don't talk about it.

Anyone can land 10 in a spit16, even withouth vulching or picking, except midway.
nuff said.
silence for 3 days, the community owes RedBull a beer.
btw spits stall: spits are super easy in the MA yet in a spit v spit, goodstick v goodstick duel its not as hard to pull too much, especially if you are trying to fly "outta airflow". Only the 16 is immune to the nasty flat stall.
At least for me, the little newbie :)
-
Landed 11 in a Spit8 yesterday, fighters only. :noid And yes, half of them were picks. Even Midway gave a "wtg". :D Midway, you should put up a weekly contest. Contest prize is you getting off 200 for 3 days each week. If no one claims the prize then I suppose everyone must fly a Spit8 once a day every week (if you haven't already, then you must fly a Spit1 :cheers:).
Make it difficult but not impossible challenges and we can turn this into something fun. :angel:

Like grains of sand in the hourglass...

I don't like the anxiety I feel when a normal mission turns into a "I have 7 kills in a 110.....maybe I can get some more and light up the buffer with flawless victory!" followed by "oh great....now I have to get home with a puffy ack pilot wound from a CV 3/4 of a sector away".
I recently had 11 kills in a 110 only to be shot by a wirb at the end of a runway while I greedily rearmed for another HQ defense.
That intrepid individual later showed up in a tank at our city..........that I got with a M8 I drove a full sector.
Wish there were more here like him.

the spit got a pretty short trigger time compared to a 109...
Without a reload it makes 24 cannon shell per kill (12/cannon), saying that anyone can do it is a bit of a stretch.

Spit is still easy mode compared to 109.....in this "contest" only things that truly matter is guns and SA.
RedBull has great aim and SA so with M2s and hispanos it was probably very easy for him to do this sortie with the right type of fight.

I wouldnt say either is easier. Id put them about the same.

yes Midway, we need to work on how you approach your bets..
spit16 would be fairly easy to land 10 with in the right fight as mentioned..
Should have made it a spit5 if you had to make it a spit.. You might actually really be forced to fight your way out of something compared to a 16..
edit: Oh, and this thread needs more of one squad to gang up on midway here.. time to bring in the other wing!! :neener:

Again, you entirely miss the point of what I'm saying. Is it an impressive accomplishment? Yes. Is it made more impressive by being in a spitfire? No, not really. Is it made more impressive by being in a spit 16? Hell no.
Spits can have some nasty stalls apparently. 109's suffer from either limited firepower, terrible drag penalties, or some of the worst balistics in the game and only 65 rounds of ammo. Ki-84's don't take speed well, and aren't supper sturdy. Yak 9s suffer from both limited firepower and a small ammunition reserve.
10 kills is impressive regardless of what plane. Doing it in spit 16, is just less impressive than doing it in a 110, a P-40, a 109E, Spit V, or C202.

It's no more or less impressive in a Spit than it is in any other plane unless you know the specifics of the kills.
Is a Pony D picking in a furball or a 110 vulching more impressive than a Spit XVI duking it out in a one on four and coming out victorious? Even if the first two have 10 kills each? I think not. I've done the latter against relatively good sticks in good planes (once against a La-7, N1K1, P-51D and something else I forget).
So until you know the specifics of the kills theres no way to claim superiority of skill based on plane type. You don't know what was killed or what the circumstances were. All you know is you're biased against Spits because others in the game are so you follow the herd like a calf hoping for acknowledement.

Wow, you're 16? I would have guessed much much older. You are very mature for your age, and are doing a great service for young players.
(It's ok, I'd bet Joachim can slip ya a beer under the table)
:D :bolt:

Spits can have some nasty stalls apparently. 109's suffer from either limited firepower, terrible drag penalties, or some of the worst balistics in the game and only 65 rounds of ammo. Ki-84's don't take speed well, and aren't supper sturdy. Yak 9s suffer from both limited firepower and a small ammunition reserve.
10 kills is impressive regardless of what plane. Doing it in spit 16, is just less impressive than doing it in a 110, a P-40, a 109E, Spit V, or C202.
Just because you lack skill in the German plane set...

I wonder if I can do this with an I16?
I had a I-16 try to attack my B-17s 2 days ago, It didn't end to well for the I-16 to say the least. :P
Although, he might of been new. He was firing from over 1k out.

In identicle situations, a kill in a P-40C is going to be more impressive than a kill in a Spit XVI. I don't care if we're talking about a rather high-speed fight where the spit is starting to get some heaviness on the controlls; its still a P-40C, with about the same firepower as one of the spitfire's cannons, and no reall preformance to speak of.
So, had those 10 kills been made in the same manner, but in a P-40, or a C.202, it would be even more impressive. Basically, how the kills were made is entirely irrelevent to the discussion, as we're just talking about a different plane making them in the same situations, not changing the situation.

just commenting on whats in red....the KI is far more sturdy then the spit....I am talking about taking damage, not sure if that's what you are talking about when you say "sturdy"....
just because she is Japanese don't mean she is weak..or easy to damage.....

Noone can land 10 in a c202 or a p40, if the situation isnt very, i mean, very special (perfect vulch fest, for example). Noone. Your argument is moot.
Even in a g6, i only once could get 10 without rearming. In 2 years! True, i was trying not to pick.
Its not about being or not being impressive, whats practically impossible, that will be impossible whatever you are doing.

Landed 11 in a P40E or F, P40 is possible, C202 is highly unlikely although I did manage 6 - pure luck since two were "damaged" and I got a kill on them.
202 I used just the Breta 12.7 (was showing proof the Ki.43 is still a very dangerous opponent for those who can aim, to give a small comparison when questing the gun package being "weak")
P40F/E I'd have to go back to my screenshots on my laptop, can't remember if it was 10 or 11, but its still possible assuming your aim is decent.
-
At least the p40F has 50cals and a good load of ammo. Were you BnZing a half-capped base with a load of wingies? Couse i cant imagine any other way.
Maybe im just too simple-minded. I can win an even fight but not 10, one after another.

I was furballing under 3k near a Bish field, its plain luck really normally I will never survive, but the idea is to bang out 4-5 kills before I get toasted.
One film I have saved was a P40F run where I was perk farming a bish field, shot down a few La7s under 3k then the horde showed up, got sent back to my base and while it got capped within 5 minutes, managed to land 6.
Pure luck really, on an average day and aim I look around 4-5 kills, extreme times I can bang out 9-10 if everything magically happens in order.

It's luck AND skill.
For example: when I was on a G6 in an attempt to get 10 kills with no re arms (hi deb :devil), I was jumped by a con on landing. One hit from auto attack and he blew up and gave me my 9th kill. It took skill to get the 8 kills, but it was pure luck on the 9th kill.

Having completed my sentence (err my side of the bet), I await my fate from Top Gun. If a Top Gunner posts another film of 10 kills in a Spitfire, I will be silent on BBS and 200 again for 3 days. If 16 kills, then 10 days. :frown:
Deal is on until I can post a film of landing 10 kills in a Spitfire per previous said rules and intent. :bhead
My fate is in your hands Top Gun... :uhoh

You the only Top Gun capable, huh? :huh
I do admit to being most impressed with the last film. :rock

Nope, in fact I am one of the more lacking pilots in Top gun, you may want to talk to drspek, joach1m, drbone, b6pacman, google, sonic23, etc. etc. :angel: :cheers:
