Around 2007 or 2008, when I first started playing this sim, I scored my first ever kill in a p39 by hoeing an f4u. At that time, I didn't know what "hoeing" was in the context of this game. I'll never forget the sight of my nose cannon making contact with that corsair's engine as his tracers flew above and below me. I can't remember that player's handle, but if he still plays and remembers that encounter: Salutes and apologies to you sir. Two or three years after that, I upped a yak9u to investigate a flashing town and flew into the middle of an noe raid. It was composed of p38s, ponies, a goon and a vic of b25s. I scored 10 kills because the guys all augered after bombs away, except for the goon. It was parked nearby and was the only enemy plane I actually killed.
