Your "odd" BoP moments!

I forget the exact mission but it was in the Ardenns; I'm in the Pony and I get jumped by a gagle of 190's. I lock onto the flight lead and let loose a quick burst taking out the pilot. As that is one of my favorite kill I decided to follow him down. I pull out at tree top next to the smoking crater and go into a hard right turn. All of a sudden I hear explosion after explosion... I turn around to see the last of the flight of 190's nose diving into the ground. They had all jumped on my six and had followed me down but made absolutely no attempt to pull out. I guess they couldn't live with out their flight lead.

My favorite though was on the Italian mission where you have to distract the fighters. I jump strait into the middle of their flock and latch onto one of the fighters. A few quick turns and we are on the deck. While still in a turning battle I notice that the entire flight is slowly coming down to our alt. Two seconds latter the explosions start as the entire flight attmepts to match my low level turn. With in 30 seconds the skys were clear.

This last one has happened several times. I'm in formation with my flight and we are about to get into a fight. I pick a target and order them to engage. I firewall my throttle to get on my own target and my flight attempts to break formation. Instead of pealing off the peal in and all three go up in a ball of smoke. My soon to be wife was watching and starts cracking up, she say's,"It's just like real life and the idiots you work with!".
