I'm going to miss the 262.

Never have I had so many pure bounces as this past week. All in the 262, sometimes several in one sortie. With short icons and a 550 mph plane, a 15 second distraction can spell death before you even realize that your in the combat zone! Good fights are fun, but so are cheap kills.

Lol, like the cheap kill you took on me? Orbiting the field, staying out of my range, and nailing me when I finally HAD to put it down! Gotta give ya a ~~for that one, well played, lol!~~

5:00 slightly low approach,
262 at 500+ mph,
hurri on a straight-in final to runway North, gear down

KAZOOM!

Yea, that one sticks out in my mind!

I think the air turbulance would have got you had I missed with the 30mms. I was afraid I was going to hit you there.
