Well thats Hanz in the Luftwaffe. Mohr named him Hanz becuase Bernard is in SH3.

Dowly · 09-23-07, 01:01 PM

Mohr can say whatever he wants, but my wingman is Bernard.

Well now that is a surprise! Even so, I do think the still looks like it's been messed around with in PhotoShop, but the actual footage shows the weather is a lot better on the fly-by than the still would have us believe.

In any case it's some pretty wild flying for an airliner, I've only ever seen a couple of airliners do that sort of thing for real, once a Boeing 757 at Woodford, and the the other time was a BA Concorde damn near doing a touch and go at Barton's grass strip of all places! Both were pretty wild to witness as must have been that Airbus! Frankly I was waiting for it to do a 'Habsheim' special.

Anyway, I stand corrected.

And because he's your wingman, and you're flying in the same squad as me and the rest of us...the whole squad is doomed.

so thats the reason when I see AI comming close they break away when they come in sight with number 13 ''Bernard''

and thats also why the fat kraut ground control goes like

''NUMBER 13!''
''You're FLAPS, SPEED , GEARS AND LIGHT, VERDAMMT BERNARD ABORT APROACH DU SCHEISSE!''

Dowly · 09-24-07, 06:12 AM

Well... it seems that the curse of Bernard is true.

Just finished my first flight after that post I made and... *sigh* God help us all..

Norway '44, I flew as a squadron leader of Mosquitos. Everything went fine after take off. I changed the formation to 'finger four'. As we got closer to the target, I switched the formation to 'diamond' and that's when everything started going wrong.

There was one guy flying ~100m ahead of me and as soon as I switched to the new formation, he 'hit the brakes', I just barely got around him, but my tail hit his wing and he hit the water at 300km/h.

And soon after that I lost control of my plane as the whole vertical tail thingy was gone and had to bail out.
