(no idea why the last bird in each line is facing backwards. All birds were facing the right direction when we started rolling 2x2 at 5 second intervals)

What I wouldn't give for another f4u-1c directly over your base then. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Just kidding, very cool! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/cool.gif)
(Wonder why a couple of them are backwards?)

if there'd been any bandits coming we'd have gotten clear of the runway real quick =)
it is interesting that the last bird in each line is turned back arsewards. While we were sitting in line doing the preflight brief a few of the bird turned sideways then back forwards. It's also not showing my drop tank, first bird in the right column(left side) infront of the 2 -1Ds (yes, a couple of guys opted for -1Ds =)
This shot was taken from a film btw. And the takeoff is something else. Guess I'll have to upload the film so you can see the 2ship cells launching and forming on flight lead =)

See now.. what we need is "incentive" to fly in formations like that.. it would be awesome! incentive could be: rank/pts/better aircraft whatever.. make us fly like pilots in wwII
-
HaHa,
The incentive is you get to kill everything in the sky (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) A group of well flown winged pairs can gain local air superiourity in a heartbeat.

You can run, but you just die tired.

You are absolutely correct Sharky. When 2 squadies and I fly together... 3 mediocre pilots become deadly.

I think that we got 8? kills for 1 loss(collision)...What incentive do you want.

I think that the direction the pilot is looking might effect dir of plane on ground...The last plane in the left column is me and I was allways looking back to the mountains to watch for Bloom starting his 10 kill strafe run... (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/eek.gif)
Some of the planes in front of me where flipping back and forth like crazy... in my FE
just a guess
