BBloke Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 You forgot the one: "You'll never be court martialled unless your BG's wingman!!" Wingman: "They're friendlies Jim!" BG: "Are they? But they are firing at us!" Wingman: "No Jim. Quote
Deacon352nd Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 All this sounds so familiar no matter what squad you fly for. Quote

delta7 Posted January 21, 2007 Posted January 21, 2007 Good points glen, I forget most things when engaged, the adrenaline starts going and all reason goes. the ones that get me killed the most are the ones you highlighted and I also forget all the basic moves and tend to get target fixated and fight in 2 dimensions by pulling on the stick instead of using the vertical Quote
Rattler Posted January 21, 2007 Posted January 21, 2007 From Friday afternoon: Situation: A5M5's vs. P-47's P-38's and F-4U's Our (Zeke's) flightpath took us directly over the US carrier, so some of our guys were bagged by naval AAA right away. Quote
DoubleTap Posted January 22, 2007 Author Posted January 22, 2007 You know one thing I need to work on is my stick control for firing. Quote
