time to give credit to the ack weenies for shooting us all down so many times.

I thought the last time you posted this was time to give them credit?  Make up your mind.

No, the truth is Citabria does not want to give credit for his death to anyone. He would rather see an inanimate personality like "the ack weenies" get it.:)

Its true...:)

And call the ack weenies "Archibald" like the British did in WW1 :)

HOST: Victory 427 by Archibald

There are some things HT had right in warbirds. Give the ack weenies their due.

Gotcha twice this tour.... :D

Osty and ack.

Of course, you HO'd my dead engine Yak while I was on short final as partial revenge. I know that your Mossy went down too, but I'm not sure why, I doubt that my last 15 MG rounds were responsible. Probably the ack, or that 110G-2 on the runway.

Got some poor bugger's 262 the other night.... Why he was strafing an airfield with 200 perks on the line remains a mystery to me.:eek:

My best,

Widewing

Widewing, I strafe fields with the 262 if there ain't anything else to shoot at.

It's just a matter of being bored. :)

I vote to leave it as it is.  If I die in the ack and somebody gets a "free" kill, he was probably at least trying to defend the field, so give him a freebee.  If I shoot the tail off somebody over my field, and he flutters down into the ack, I deserve the kill.  Also, there were a lot of "ack suicides" in WB, just to deny kills to field defenders when they got the advantage.

Or....change it.  I really don't care.

Hey, I know of about 190 Bish and Knits who died this tour by entering my personal "no fly zone" that I maintain around any CV where I'm manning a 5" dual gunmount. Learn how to use those guns and nothing inside of 5k lives for long.

More than 1/2 of my deaths this tour are due to acks, GVs and PT boats. So, in my view, triple A is a big part of the game.

My regards,

Widewing
