Fuel... think I need that.

Yeeep, definitely need fuel.

Luckily I wasn't the only one to "miscalculate".

Herr-Berbunch · 06-17-11, 07:52 AM

Let's just count my cock-ups again, shall we? (Sorry for sizes)

Number one. Ballooned down the runway, last seen at about 100' and 90kts, it just dropped

Then I took a stroll, the strange looking cars somehow avoided me!

Number two. SAMs!

Number three. Tried to take off from the taxiway and just clipped the taxiway sign.

Number four was SAMs again - but I was so close to them I don't believe in RL they would've had time to be fused/armed

Where's TLAM when you need his encyclopaedic knowledge to prove/disprove a point?

In all honest, I may have missed one. But it wasn't all crashes...

Blak Shark coming online.

Fly into a hangar: fail.

Steady...

Do a barrel roll!

Close enough.

Herr-Berbunch · 06-23-11, 10:54 AM

I just get better!

Edit - and just for the record that is not me in the hangar!

Arclight · 06-23-11, 11:16 AM

Flying the Ka-50 without rudder control... pretty tricky. You can get away with it in the A-10C, especially with SAS, but a helicopter simply demands it.

Herr-Berbunch · 06-23-11, 03:06 PM

Are we not on tonight?

Arclight · 06-23-11, 03:12 PM

Just tinkering.

Added a tanker and a friendly convoy. Friendlies are headed for Sukhumi, the airfield halfway between home and defended practice area. Once they get there, that airfield will be useable. The tanker flies out to sea and then turns towards Sukhumi, flying a race-track patern between those 2 points.

Also changed all the tanks to T-55 and BMP-2 to BMP-1. T-72B is darn hard to crack with the Gau-8/A and BMP-2 is rather lethal against aircraft. Too much so for a training mission I'd say.

Server coming online.

Herr-Berbunch · 06-23-11, 03:19 PM

I'll try not to take out the tanker!

Gun to safe

honest.

Anyway, while I'm waiting - here are some more from last night's BS (in so many ways!)

Arclight · 06-23-11, 06:42 PM

Always hit that bloody car on the way out.

Arclight · 06-29-11, 03:04 PM

Ka-50 coming online.

Arclight · 06-30-11, 03:12 PM

Aaand A-10C up.

Herr-Berbunch · 07-06-11, 06:42 AM

May not be crashing tonight, but will try.

Arclight · 07-07-11, 12:51 PM

Sorry about last night, think the heat got the better of me. Seem to be set for tonight though.

I'll be on a bit later.

Just been trying to get dual-monitor setup working for it. Unsuccessfully

. Still, it wasn't going to be a permanent setup.
