Title: ** Returning to base, fuel / mental state (film) **
Post by: Servo on March 28, 2001, 05:48:00 PM

Well, it all started when some of the MOL were flying together and doing quite well. We had just cleared the way through an attack force hell bent for our base. All were happy and it was a time of joyous celebration... then I checked my six...

...and started recording. There were somewhere close to 10 cons an IB to our position.

My good friend SwampRat had an evil La7 chasing him, so I turned back into the mass and tried to scare it off with MG fire.

Out my six view there were MULTIPLE cons in firing range, so I began scissoring the best I could.

The next few minutes are the most intense I've had in AH - ever. Right when it seems all hope is lost, I'll catch a lucky break and either I'll lose them for a moment, or Seeker or SwampRat will clear my six.

Towards the end of the film, this La7 WILL NOT STOP HARASSING ME. With no regard for his own life, he presses on for the kill and keeps me sweating the entire time.

Against all odds, and the ever-present help of Seeker and SwampRat, I managed to survive and land. The whole ordeal is several minutes long with no break in the action. Occasionally I'd yell out in victory, or laugh manically (you can probably see in the film where they fit in).

My heart was racing the entire time.

"Thanks guys! RTB, fuel / mental state"

<S> Seeker and SwampRat for bailing me out of trouble time and time again.     (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
