Maybe they should have tried flying over the target instead of driving.  :devil

I agree with Viking
Rodbuster should be praised for his positive spin and respect for another pilot, being enemy.. even more kudos

After he sank your carrier, he would then fly over your lvt and blow you up with the rear guns.

A compliment generally requires praise.   "Great job."   "Attaboy."   "Well done."   "Way to go."

Based on track record alone I don't see this as a compliment.  The OP is free to clarify of course (hopfully *NOT* in all-caps mode).

Not sure if this is a complaint about the plane, the pilot, the bombing in general or a case of passive-agressive "just saying"...  :noid

Yes....all of the above :lol

Wait until he finds out that you can drop radar and ords from 12k in an A-20...

Or acks from 12k from rockets of a Fw190F8, 12 of them, and you still got a 500kg bomb for that radar, or that #!£#@#Wirby.

Carriers really aren’t that difficult to sink from 10k and below. My normal attack altitude in b26s is 9k. Just high enough that the auto ack doesn’t shred me. As long as I don’t choke on my targeting I don’t miss very often and I’m terrible. If the carrier is going straight you can zap it from 30k just gotta get your lead dead on.

Yeah.  On my very first bombing mission in a B-26 I sank the CV in a shallow dive from about 12K.  I came back and dropped a BB the same way on the next mission.    Totally doable.

Probably not too many avid GV'ers that didn't receive an egg or 2 from NKL5. Got to where if there was an AR234 around you scooted from cover to cover.  1STPAR nowadays is getting pretty consistent with his Spit and egg delivery. :airplane:
