First Frogfoot Landing:

Arclight · 08-31-11, 03:08 PM

Server is le up.

Or is that le server is up? Le server c'est la up? Lerver sup perhaps?

Right.

Dowly · 08-31-11, 03:16 PM

Fetchez la vache?

I shall be there after a refreshning cup of coffee.

Arclight · 08-31-11, 06:04 PM

Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelled like elderberries!

Sorry, tired. Grabbed a few tonight;

Not sure about first, definetly Oberon on the wing in the second.

Russian parking at it's finest.

Herr-Berbunch · 08-31-11, 06:04 PM

Before I go any further, here is Dowly landing a fixed-wing on a nice long runway.

Then I did a bit of low level over the water... (and didn't crash until back over land)

Then the others shot some stuff whilst I blindly flew by, but I don't have pics of that. Anyhoo, got back to Sochi-Adler somehow

and took off in a miraculously brand new a/c

.

Whilst in a hover-taxi, your honour, a vehicle simply reversed into me. Nay! Two vehicles. No lights, no warnings, the first I knew of it was, ahem, on an external camera. Up till now I thought I was safely on the grass the other side...

Which was followed by the legendary (inevitable) H-B pyrotechnic display. But if I may draw your honour's eyes to the words 'took off from Sochi-Adler', absolving me of any wrongdoing...

Image Spam Starts Now!

Raptor lands successfully in his Frogfoot. Alas his wreckage did not crash on the railway and was not run over by a train.

Hunter demonstrates the latest in Kamov break-dancing

Oberon attempts formation flying!

Dowly bolters the Kuznetsov, sinking it.

Oberon: "Raptor, you're facing the wrong way."
Raptor: "I am? No I'm not."
Oberon: "Aren't they coming from the valley?"
Arclight: "Pincer, some from the valley, some from the north."

(Ten minutes later, after laying waste to the North convoy, we are ambushed by the valley convoy.)

Dowly tries to pry the hangar door open with his nose

Then practices aerobatics

And then sets back Petrochemical relations by 20 years with his Rainbow Warrior MiG

Meanwhile, back at the Kamovs, the valley convoy gets its own ambush...

The BRDMs conspire with the terrorist trains to attack Raptor

Oberon · 08-31-11, 06:19 PM

Raptor is taken down by a part of the convoy Arclight and Oberon missed

There is a disagreement in right of way between Dowly and Raptor...

Oberon runs out of missiles whilst attacking the airbase and RTBs, so Arclight moves in for the kill.

His suicide run is concluded by a Libyan AAA truck

Herr B was doing so well...and then the inevitable blade strike occurred.

Oberon makes a successful landing

Herr B parks up for fueling

That's another 9p on the price at the pumps....

I though Dowly was just nudging Rapror (

) along? Or was Rapror towing Dowly?

I'll have you know it's been weeks since I last had a blade strike, my more recent incidents are all enemy fire (some), and ground avoidance failure (some more).

Raptor1 · 08-31-11, 06:49 PM

Dunno about Rapror, but I think Dowly was trying to murder me...

Ah, well...they're inevitable to me

SgtPotato · 08-31-11, 07:52 PM

Do I have to get the game Lock-on?

Raptor1 · 08-31-11, 08:12 PM

If you want to play Flaming Cliffs 2, yes.

EDIT: Oh, yeah...

Neg, I was attempting to launch a Vikhr at one of the APCs but it turned out to be directly below me. Cue broken rotors...

In my case it was a bit more like:

Arclight · 09-01-11, 08:13 AM

*checks valley*
"... still nothing?"

*looks out right window at smoldering remains of convoy*

*turns back front*
"Huh, you know, those white puffs look like missile trails."
