No pictures sadly because my laptop had to be erased and re-booted a few months ago when I took off Norton and I tried to put on another anti-virus, which wasn't that good. (The reason I took off Norton was because I thought it was slowing down Aces High but I was wrong.)

Anyways it was in FSO around November of last year, and G3MF and I were in F6F's at about 25k preparing to a quick strike on some Japanese air field. I was flying wingman to my flight lead NAVCAD and we ran into a group of about 15-20 Ki-61's. Well we drop some altitude to increase speed but the Ki's follow. We blow through them and weave to the right a little bit to avoid collisions. Well we're flying in a loose finger four and I'm about 800 yards to NAV's 7'o clock. Well we weave back to the left to help out one of our guys with a Ki on him when I see a Ki about 600-800 closing in on NAV. NAV breaks right and I snap roll to the right and the Ki disappears under my nose, I pull some deflection hoping to distract him and fire maybe a 1 second burst. I level out to find my flight lead to see the Ki falling from the sky missing a wing.  :D

I think this belongs here. At around the 45 second mark.

I've always been kinda proud of these. Not sure if they're considered HO shots though.

Not my best shot, but one of The Few where I happened to have FRAPS running:

Ignore the background music - I usually fly with it blaring.

vDolph is now and forever will be my brother after this

First off, salute to vDolph for being a good sport and adding to the fun at his expense.   You are now my brother because I formerly thought these types of things only happen to me.

Secondly, don't expect any fantastic shot, just hang on to about 1-2 mins into the flight and then see what happens when all 4 squadees get their targets mixed up listen to the unbelievable results.  I had to review the film to see just exactly how this did occur.  :headscratch:

 :salute vDolph.  I only post this here to exemplify what a great sport you were and to grab the attachment for my squadees in squad forum.

My second flight ever in a P38 of any type in a duel VS AKAK after he claimed I was avoiding him.

After this, I was worried it was too uber but I lost the next 3 so the P38 doesn't become one of the uber hangar queens I avoid flying like the la7 and N1k.

Still.....haven't flown it since.

I don't have film of it, not that it would help anyway, but I was coming into a base in a D-40 to take out the troops. I was at about 15k and got jumped by an La. I punched my ords but still being fat on fuel I lost the engagement. I was in the tower and noticed that I had gotten a kill. I only remember me and the LA being in the area so I PM the guy to see if it was a proxy. I killed him while he was taking off with the rockets that I had dumped. Apparently HVARs are BVR missiles now.  :lol

Your post and film must be some kind of joke that went over my head.  What I saw was you staying close to a pilot-wounded 262 to get a proxy kill, then laughing and running away like a little girl.  Your film does not show you killing the second 262 either.

Your film is a major disappointment and I want my 3:20 and hard disc space back...... :lol
