Captured on my own field!?!
« on: July 07, 2005, 11:43:30 AM »
While RTB I came across a Zeke in my 51 and took a couple of swipes at him and then carried on to base. The Zeke followed, falling back naturally, when I made my approach he was out about 4.5k. I belly landed knowing I could stop quicker and get into the tower. Normaly with a belly landing on the runway you get the "successful " landing message. The Zeke was close enough at this point I could hear his engine, but no shots. In the tower I got the message I was "captured", and the Zeke got a "kill".  HUH!!!   :confused: :confused:

When you're near the front line, always check the map just before you land. Somewhere between the last time you looked at the map and your landing they captured the field.
Most of the people you meet in life are like slinkies. Pretty much useless, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

Hmmm, maybe but there was no one around, no fighter cap and no neme except for the zeke chasin me:rolleyes:

Furball, you added... "OH NO MY SCORE!!" to the end of my quote, it ain't so, since I'm such an EZ kill that score means nothing to me. The only thing I care about is improving on my kill ratio :)
