Not me.  I have been shot down by Lancasters several times in my 262.

Yes it does Bistro.

One would assume you running away in a jet would result in the same humiliation though.

There won't be a need for such thing if you fly Axis this time. Bring FDBs and I have just the plane for you.

We might have a hard time explaining this one to Hangtime if we decided to fly Axis...or worse yet, we would get accused of sabotaging the Rumble by our sorry flying just to let our squaddie take another one from you.  :)

I'll fly for Axis, but only if I can take off in the same flight group as you, and take off directly behind you on the runway.  (assuming killshooter is off like last year, of course)

262s are like alcohol....add one to my system and I start acting stupid  :-)  262s are "rentals", I seldom have them for long.

The few I have brought home are almost always missing many parts!

Tac is on bad MOFO in 262 ;).  Fester is pretty good in it too.

Saw HUNHunter rippin' up the place the other night in a 262. Was a beautiful thing to watch him in action.

Last I saw,  that night, was 17 straight kills ... don't know what the final total was.

Fester and Tac ... nothing more needs to be said here :D

I got 32 kills total ( 2 of them were 262's who thought they would mess with me :rolleyes: )

The streak did not end due to enemy action--I had to go to bed :(

Flown a 262 once...35 kills...Same plane is still parked in hanger for whenever I get 200 perks again.(But why fly a 262 when there is the Tempest!!)

My vote goes to Fester.  I'm sure there are many good 262 pilots but Fester impressed me tonight by sweeping down low and loop fighting me while I was flying a 110.  He then proceeded to mix it up at low alt, loop fighting with several of my countrymen and he was hanging in for awhile.  Most 262 pilots fly very cautious, rarely giving up their E or taking chances.

back when it was introduced I flew quite a lot the 262, and with good result. I was surprised I was way more accurate with those 30mm's than what I had expected.

All the 262s I lost ,without exception were because the laser auto-ack.

However I won't ever take myself as a very good 262 driver after seeing what Citabria uses to do with those things :D

plus,  I doubt I'll fly the rumble. (is a soft way to say I keep what I said after the 1st one :))

I feel redeemed.  I downed Fester's 262 with my 110.  He tried to cut under me at mach5 D800 or so and flew into 4 20's and 2 30's.

Revenge!
