Title: Pand
Post by: Scotch on December 04, 2012, 04:51:06 PM
I just tried your "challenge".

I have 50 air to air kills 0 deaths in the 109g6. It took me considerably longer than you. Flying a majority during off hours, I literally put on 12 sorties at 1 kill each, just jumping around the map looking for anything to shoot at. But I stayed out of the horde, didn't vultch, and never ran from a 1v1, including some very scary ones with Bruv in a seafire. I scored it under attack mode so that I could still brawl against the horde in a k4. I hope that doesn't disqualify me. I'd be sad. So is this enough to get that signed picture of you? Just in time for Christmas?

If you're game, I challenge you to become a regular face in our informal DA meets. Not that furball lake crap, but shaking it up mano y mano (and whatever Redbull is). Maybe I learned something flying to live, maybe you'll learn something flying to own.


I'm flying under "Thias" right now.
Look at me!

Both fights I broke off when he entered. The second time you almost killed me when I did.   :(

 Fun little fight yesterday East of A9, i was in a LA5 that came across your G6. I remember a couple of friendlies on both sides knights vs rooks and us (you and i) getting low on the deck, it was fun till Archer came in and popped me ;)

Very well done Scotch!  Don't sell yourself short on the time... accomplishing 50 and 0 in a mid war plane is tough, especially in the MA, regardless of how long it took to do so!  Salute sir, and I look forward to learning something in the DA!  Ping me anytime when you're on!  :salute

You're lucky this time 80hd, you're off the hook on the shipping!    :D

Edit: Oh wait now, there is more!  The aforementioned squad mate has brought to my attention something that, in my embarrassment, I neglected to address previously.  My fan club playfully enjoys ribbing me for "picking and running" in my Mustang of choice.  As to remove any shadow of a doubt, any challenger can do as much "picking and running" as they desire, as long as the challenge is completed inside of my total fighter sortie time of 4 hours, 12 minutes, and 27 seconds.

As an incentive to sweeten the pot, anyone capable of meeting or exceeding the given parameters within the time allotted and in a comparable (mid-war or earlier) aircraft to the P-51 Bravo, shall receive at no charge to themselves, an autographed 8x10 photo of yours truly--- So manage your time wisely, do not let climbing to 40K and fleeing when you appear to have lost the advantage ruin your chances at what is sure to become a collector's item (suitable for framing).

In November, flying the TA152 I managed to get to 61 kills before my first death.  Starting this month off, first flight, I had 4 kills, re-armed and was chasing a 190A8 that flew over his CV and got one-ping killed by the CV ack.  Some months you are the bug, some months you are the windshield.    :salute

Yes that was another one of the memorable fights I had. <S> Scotty

I have a question though,   did you get further excitement out of our fights in the knowledge that you were actively trying to survive the fight?   

Once in a fight, I'm always actively trying to win it. The fight is the excitement. The rare win in overcoming outrageous odds is more exciting to me. But there was certainly some excitement in flying more strategically.
When I'm "brawling" I worry less about positioning, being ganged, etc. Death is an accepted outcome. Here there was just as much challenge in watching the map, exiting before the cloud of red comes bearing down, and narrowly escaping close calls (ie, la7, niki, and zeke in trail). Perhaps I do have more interest in flying as a "complete" pilot. Pilots like Fester and Kappa can put together huge streaks and fly smart in the MA because they can rely on their fighting skills.

Salute sir, and I look forward to learning something in the DA!  Ping me anytime when you're on!  :salute

 :aok I look forward to you joining in with us more than trying to teach you anything!

:airplane:  There is no doubt that Pand is one of the top "sticks" in this game! Congrats on your 50 kill score! Now let me give you something else that Pand has done, which I think is beyond outstanding!! He flies the P-51B almost 95% of the time...recently he 9 kills in ONE sortie and returned to base with 40 bullets left in his 4 50 cal guns. Now there is a goal I would like to see anyone match!

9 kills in a single sortie isn't difficult, especially if you fly the way Pand does.

I have landed 10 kills in a G6 withouth rearming, no gondolas. Actually 3 were clean co-E 1v1s against spits, caught a low pony and an F4U, the remaining 5 were from a many vs many furball.
And i am not, nor i was, any good.

No, he actually was/is pretty 'awesome' at Aces High, I would personally consider him one one of the real top sticks, top 10. In a G6, probably only 3-4 people who can beat him, I cannot

Top stick wise? Well, pand, I'll give you your good 50 cal aim, and with squaddies around you usually pick up the picks pretty fast, which is a skill, and those are two things you are quite good at. however, 1v1, ehm...Well that is where you are lacking, quite badly, but hey everyone has their weak points in the game, 1v1 I am ok, but in a furball I like to turn fight rather than pick and run, although it usually ends up getting me killed, I enjoy it and have fun with it. Where as I see you play to stay alive more, and pick up kills by clearing squaddies or something. It's whatever floats your boat, but I would not be so fast to judge debrody as not being 'awesome' at aces high though, sir...

However I think I will go about it as Scotch did, rather 2-4 kills/sortie in a aircraft you have to fight in, rather than high speed aircraft like the pony (not taking a shot at you here, just saying the plane types in general..)
