Never!

28th March IIRC TF.

And now for something completely different:

Schroeder: This 190 doesn't climb right, I think they must have changed something with the flight models in the last patch. I'm only climbing about five meters a second.
Oberon: I'm climbing faster than that.
Schroeder: The 109 did have a faster climb rate than the 190
Oberon: Ah...right

Raptor: I'm at 4000 meters
Schroeder: You climb faster than me! This thing handles terribly, something must have been changed with the flight models!
Raptor: Try flying a 410...

Raptor: Erm...you do know your flaps are deployed, right?
Schroeder: ...Scheiße...
All: ROFLMFAO
Schroeder: I was just testing to see if you noticed!!
All: ROFLMFAO
Schroeder: Stop laughing!!

Oh, and Task Force, this one is for you:

Schroeder · 03-11-10, 07:51 AM

That are all lies!!! My plane was sabotaged!!! I would never forget to retract my flaps!!!

Raptor1 · 03-11-10, 11:43 AM

Oberon, does your book have the number and types of aircraft (Besides the Stuka) that attacked the Excess convoy on January 10th, 1941 (The one in which Illustrious was crippled)? I have some conflicting accounts on this attack...

I'll go and dig it out and see.

Raptor1 · 03-11-10, 03:12 PM

Thanks. Specifically, I need to know whether he mentions Ju 88s being in the attack; the most reliable sources I've seen state 43 Stukas and 2 SM.79s being involved in the first attack (There was another attack by the Regia Aeronautica later in the day which wasn't as successful IIRC), but some places claim Ju 88s were also employed in the attack and I haven't heard anything about those.

Oberon · 03-11-10, 06:10 PM

Another good mission Raptor, the Fulmar doesn't fly that badly, can take a bit of a pounding too. I claimed six Stukas I think before I ran out of ammo and had to ditch by the smoking Warspite.
Mission technically a failure though since the Illustrious sunk. That's going to hurt the RN

Still, at least it wasn't the Warspite, then I would have been peeved.

Yo! Warspite! Little help here?

Then Raptor made the mistake of replying when asked what MDF should be chosen 'Something crazy'. Which Oberon was of course, happy to provide.

Deedle Deedle, Deedle Deedle

Blue base carrier, complete with wrecked hangar after Oberon tried to land with a J8A

The land-carrier runs for safety in the invisible forest

Raptors Blennie runs out of ammo whilst attacking a TB3, so Raptor persues the next logical course of action

Mwahahaha, look ma, no ailerons!

Damn Kukuruznik rear gunners....

Raptor1 · 03-12-10, 05:20 AM

I was shot down by the floating castle, so embarrasing...

Task Force · 03-12-10, 04:50 PM

Lol, I quite liked that map... was quite intresting actualy...

Task Force · 03-14-10, 10:13 PM

So, tomorrow, I should get on TS at 3:00?

Oberon · 03-15-10, 08:40 AM

Usual time. Nothing happens until the 28th.

Raptor1 · 03-15-10, 08:42 AM

Unless it's changed for him, in which case the simplest solution is just to declare independence from daylight savings and refuse resetting the clock.

Task Force · 03-15-10, 01:46 PM

The subsim times
Task Force declared his independence from
Daylight Savings time.

His responce to are requests were
"IDK, I just got tired of the time BS"

We tryed to get a statement from Daylight Savings time
but got no responce.

Oah, and what time do I need to be on? (my time)

Well, if one accounts for time dilation based on the theory of special relativity and the Lorentz transformation, it is quite hard to determine what it would be on your time.

But otherwise, by my count the usual time would be in another 1 hour and 54 minutes.

Response, our and tried, BTW.

Task Force · 03-15-10, 02:08 PM

Gaa... thats what I get for putting it up quick without looking. (Type around 80 WPM, dont really pay attention to what I type.)

yea, I was guessing around that much later. so around 5 PM I guess...
