Couldn't believe the clean shot through the roundel!

Its Air Combat Jim, but not as you've known it

Welcome to the world of on-line combat. Bring your friends!

Oh, and yes get Teamspeak ASAP and think about joining a Squad or at least try to fly regularly with guys you will get to know on TS. Its much more satisfying.

Hmmm... Jimbob, why do I have the bad feeling that this was me ????
Did you see the name of the player bailing?

Damn, I should have checked better, I saw the big piece falling off your wing and the flat spin and thought your wing had broken off

You were a lucky bugger, my gunsight (and everything else in the cockpit) had been shot to pieces.

Probably was! You were definitely online at the time but I didn't notice the name of the player, too worried about my fuel.

Btw, how do you send a chat without exiting to the server page?

That was a good read --- with pictures, no less! Bonus! LOL

Glad you enjoyed your experience on the ATAG server. And yes, be sure to install Teamspeak 3; it really enhances the whole feeling of "being there"!

Nice read. I hope this post could bring more pilots to online mode.

Regards.

Thanks, I hadn't understood the distinction. Probably not enough online kills yet! It's a good idea.

Yes, well spotted. I think it is a bug - I have seen it a few times and there's no way this guy actually had his wheels modelled down.
