I loved your comments:
"Hey Oberon! Watch your six!"
"It's not Oberon."
"Yeah, it's not me mate, I stalled and jungled. It's Task Force."
"Ah...Shoot the bugger down!!"

:rotfl:

[Kratos]

Kratos, did you grab the track from that mission? I'd be interested to see what happened to Hunters undercarriage from the outside.

Managed to get a cap from when T.F. landed..not much left of it

That's what I've now dubbed the '109 landing' So far, every time I've landed a Buffy that's what I've done.

The Baffu isn't worth the wear on the airstrip, better to just ditch it over the sea

[Oberon]

I dunno, she's a nice steady crate, quite sturdy, not prone to spontaneous combustion unlike her Jap counterparts, has a proper gunsight unlike the telescopic Jap sniper thing. You can stall her and recover quite well providing you have the height, that's how I lost two Jap planes by stalling at the top of a climb and then going horizontal, the Jap planes try to slow down but overshoot when you go horizontal.
It just sadly has a couple of air rifles in the wings and is as fast as a dead snail.

And looks about as good as a dead snail too...

That wouldn't work very well against a human pilot. It's a good trick against the AI and works with almost any aircraft against any other aircraft, but try it against a half-decent human pilot and all you get is your arse full of lead

Same with horizontal scissors or just plain turning tight. Works every time against the AI.

Were those btw Ki-27s we fought?

Muahaha, good pic

Nice pic

That would be my krate
taskforce didnt crash his plane the last sortie and he used the Dutch Singapore skin

HunterICX

[Oberon]

I thought he rolled into your wreckage after landing? :hmm:

[HunterICX]

Nope, he passed me on the right and came to a complete stop short after that.
