Funny how chute killers have to find good reasons to do this. What is your problem boys? Have to find legitimate reasons for having a quick moment where you can feel your power on the enemy, moments you are desperately seeking for in RL (TM)?
Only to say that I don't like chute-killers. Only because I don't like those who attack unarmed people, but that's only MHO.

If you dont want to be shot in your shoot, dont bail. If you bail, expect to be shot. I dont shoot chutes but the only reason is that I dont want to waste ammo.

Frankly, these threads are inspiring me to change that habit and take it up as a game sport.

Any tips from the long time chute shooters?

Ive died way more often hitting the ground cutting it too close then I ever have from chute shooting. By a factor of about 10.
Torque. come back

wow long thread didn't read it all so if this is repetitive sorry

just wanted to toss in the fact that there are eye witness accounts of German pilots shooting up chutes.

It reminds me the French Ace Pierre Clostermann answering a journalist:
"-journalist: We have been told that some pilots were killed while chuting. Is that true?
-Pierre: You know, there are always people trying to make war more horrible than it is..
-Then there were?
-Yes there were. On every sides."

Hehe..old thread I can see...but I have to interject my opinion. In war, real war, there is no such thing as Honor when it comes to killing your fellow man. Its a nasty, brutal fact. Some SOB just got through turning your friend into a pile of mush beside you and all you want is some bloody payback. He's sitting there begging for his life after killing your friend whom you know has a wife,kids etc... so you promply put a round through his head and move on... the back of the head because you dont wont to remember faces, screw him.

NOW... THIS is a game... it IS NOT WAR. Its like a baseball game, rugby, football, soccor etc. You act with civility and decency as this is taking place in a CIVIL enviroment
NOT a battlefield. People who thank otherwise need to see the horror and tears in a frontline vets face if he ever has to much to drink and decides to talk about what they saw ....

Batdog... out.

P.S. Besides why shoot a chute... I never get to bail... look for a miss flown 38,hellcat or even a c205.

creamo... revolvers don't have "clips" and german pilots did shoot at chutes... other than that i would agree with what you say.

This is a game or it is war... either way... To kill the cowardly bailer is both moraly correct and good game tactics. with the idiotic perk system, killing chutes is mandatory. If you don't... the same timid coward who is ruining gameplay will be back up that much sooner in an even more cowardly perk plane.

Killing suicide buff bailers who is both pleasing and character building but, you have to wait till they allmost hit the ground (best in any case).

when someone flys a risk free course in a risk free plane (or group of em) running away at the first sign (real or imagined) of any slight disadvantage... Yeah... if he blows it and has to hit the silk... it is mandatory to kill his chute.
