First Kill

Post by Guest » Mon Nov 14, 2005 12:23 pm

Well if finally happened....

Was a sunny day, I was flying a Bleufighter (something) and I see one of my random team mates being attacked by a japanese fighter and asking for help (ki something?) and put my bomber into a dive (full loaded) and came up behind the enemy fighter at a outragous speed, the aircraft almost being shaken to bits and get within .20 and let rip with a burst of hot lead. I don't think I have ever had such satisfaction of destroying a enemy fighter when I played solo.

After my first kill online I continued to the enemy carrier and stuck a torpedo into the side, dodged the anti aircraft guns from her and the escorting 4 destroyers and headed back to base to reload.

Just as I'm approaching the landing strip to Japanese fighers appear behind me which I managed to dodge and evade for about 40 seconds, even managing to get one in my sites for a spray and pray volley but didn't take long before I was hurtling back to the ground to land a little earlier than attended. Somehow managed to crash land without any controls except the engines and my rudders.

Was my first kill, much earlier into my career than expected and probably the last for quite some time lol

I know your all seasoned pros but can't you remember your first kills?

Well done mate!
can't you remember your first kills?
Sure, i was flying a 4 gun hurri, when something flashed very fast past my nose... i freaked out, and instinctively pushed the firing button... It turned out it was an enemy fighter, who was shred to pieces by my cannons ;) Talk about a beginners luck :lol:

Don't broadcast this, but Falcon only actually gotten off the ground twice.

Once he was on my side...once on the other.

50% of my kills that day were Falcon...and he was on my team! :lol:
