So i'm flying around last night in A5 with all 4 cannon.. just feeling silly, trying different planes...
I make a pass on a tiffy, climb out and see a hog crawling up my 6 about 2 miles away. I'm clear he doesn't have a stash to follow me up, but i don't want to risk it, so i reverse gently and pass under his nose in head on position. He's quite predictable, he turns hard low yo yo and blows any energy he might have had... there i am 3000 ft up above on top of my half loop... and as usual, he points the nose up hoping that F4U will crawl up to meet me. I wait few seconds dive in... he's pointing at me but not shooting.. at 600 i open fire and at 300 he blows up... He kinda stood there in the air at 0 mph (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
Like i said.. predictable.. then it gets funnier...
I get a private message from my victim saying
"nice head on dweeb"
Well well well.. sore loser are we ? So i answer him that "it takes two to tango" to which he replies with the nonchalant "I'm above that" air about him that "people without ethics bother me"
Well Oh Mighty One, excuse moui !!!
This guy losses the fight - in a pathetic style i might add - then insults me and then accuses me of having no ethics !!! Does it get any funnies then this ?
Btw - guy is a member of a "respectable" squadon with "previous sim" experiance - therefore i don't think he's a newbie ( although his flying suggests otherwise )
Well, you know who you are !!! Thank you for a great laugh !!

Think of it as a bad night for someone.
-
Had almost the exact same thing happen to me fd-ski. It was the first thing even near a headon I'd been in for some time... the other participant gets on private comms and calls me a dweeb saying he's sick of flying all the way to a fight only to die in a headon.
I told him it was the first one I've been in for some time, but he insisted that it was people like me that were ruining the game for him.
I called him a bad word (before language filter). (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Uh-oh....did you give him away?!?!? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

by definition....both planes have to be flying at each other for it to be a head-on. I haven't figured out why people complain about it. For it to happen...both pilots have to go head to head.

I think I can speak for Mighty1 when I tell you that he would never make such a pathetic "I'm above that" statement. Not only that, he isn't part of a "respectable squad". (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Nope, not Mighty1, though I wondered at first when I read the line.
-
Hehehe. Nahhh, it wasn't mighty1

" both planes have to be flying at each other for it to be a head-on. "
Not necessarily. If the other plane is a laggy spit, you might be in an HO and not even know it.

FD I thought is was smash not stash, or are you referring to something in the cockpit? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Hehe, I have had several(not headons) pilots throw up the "you have no skill" rants when they die. Cant wait until pyro puts up the Film Folder, so I can
start my "clown of the week" section. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Heh heh, another one of them dreaded "single plane HO's"?
It always amazes me when someone complains about dieing in an HO. If it was truly an HO, then both planes had to participate.
Of course, there are those who think the other guy should for some odd reason point their tail at them to shoot at, without attempting to turn and get a gun solution themselves.
One thing I find common on these accusations is the person making them is normally a sore loser, and not normally a very good flyer.
Just my thoughts anyway

Was just a lame attempt at humor on my part.

Well, some days ago I got two "Fuc you gatt" when I shot down two Rook B-17s in 10 minutes with the same kind guy inside. What did I do? I got two screenshots but above all I laughed (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Of course if they did win the HO it was their pure ACM abilities that won the day but when they lose you're the dweeb. If i had a nickle... er anyhow when i get that per say "Your a HO dweeb" over channel 1, i'll usually respond with my patented "that's Mister to you fella". It's like blow'n kisses to the guy in the car beside you on the highway as he rants and foams at the mouth yelling at you because he couldn't drive his finger up his bellybutton let alone an automoblie.
Hey Drex nice to see that you are more active on the board.

Ya know,if I was dumb enough to put myself in a position where a HO shot was possible and died because of it, I don't believe I'd admit to it by saying anything on any channel....and no it wasn't me either, I usually only fly Tuesday nights, or I lose my nookie pass (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Heya torque/ppit,
Yeah I need to be more active on the board, but a lot of it isn't worth replying. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
I just hate typing, so my posts are quite limited. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) I'll make you a deal. You fly more, and I'll post more.
FDski,
You are on! Just email me the instructions and I'll start catagorizing my 170 films (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

S!
I have also had several engagements with enemies complaining after kill.Best whine was a C-Hog driver complaining about 109G-2.He was shot down by wingman and then the ch1 woke up...Oh well.And we were the dweebs according to him (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Most stylish answer on a HO I made was simple "CC" on ch1.Put a burst of 24rds from the La7 with tail slide to a passing Spit IX.Hitted cockpit and BOOM!
Usually I don't prefer HO in 109,but if I encounter so called later war planes I take every shot I can possibly get,since those planes don't give mercy if Ya stay too long in front of them.

Where u been hiding Torque???? you back now (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
You flyin as ppit?

My only complaint right now about anything is the tremendous amount of ammo that I seemingly can pour into objects at close range only to see the object soak it up and later kill me. That leads me to conclude I have a connect problem, but man it sure is frustrating when it happens to you...

LOL, what a funny thread. Best thing in a long time happened to me last night...
I was lugging a heavy Lanc to A12 and a new player, who I'll leave nameless, was verbally abusing Bradys5 and going on and on (only hint you all get!). While this "individual" kept filling the text buffer with his moronic chants, I noticed a spit closing in on my 6, but not being very evasive. So, doing what Lancs do best, I hammer this Spitfire and send him to earth in pieces. Then, God sends me a big grin. That "individual" was who I shot down. Had he spent more time flying than running his mouth, he mighta had me (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
Yep, sometimes that $30 a month is all worth it when you shoot down the big mouth of the arena !
