The Way The Typhoon Likes To Fly

Pretty cool video of flyin the tiff fast and smooth and using the full envelope as it was designed for. Excuse the horrible nose bounce as this is thanks to my LOVELY LOGITECH j/s. Anyway good vid for Typhoon lovers! Five kills pretty quick with lots of targets. I only got slow maybe once! :-)

WMsharp Typhoon Run

Enjoy!

Amazing what turnin' the stall limiter OFF does after 1 1/2 years, lol, hehe!

Sorry but if you were flying with stall limiter on for the last year, you would notice it, and so would the people that killed you.  Having stall limiter on is like flying a plane with 1 elevator.

Unless you flew la7 around for last year, just doing HO/Extend move.

TY! Schatzi

Lazer of course I knew I had it on!
I just liked the stall protection, and didnt know exactly how much it was hindering my game performance.

I fly for a living and stall protection is usually a good thing :-)
Keep forgettin' this a darn GAME!

sheeshh

Anyway thanks for watchin':aok

I don't fly the tiffy a lot, but every now & then I want to get a couple of 1k eggs to a field FAST. Then its tiffy time for sure.

Funny, I almost always have a blast on those sorties. Drop a couple of eggs, then nice long sweeping passes doing short bursts at anything that gets in front of me.

I actually stayed so long the last time I ran out of fuel & landed at the enemy field. Pity too cause our capture attempt failed & I had to exit out without getting credit for my kills.
