I meant to post a bit of an AAR from Sunday nights flying. Biker's map has so many targets, that Dawg and I decided to head to the north side of the map and fly as a pair of bombers. It was fun because with no escorts if fighters got spotted we had to react if we were going to last. We cleared a lot of targets but the last sortie was a factory and shipyard facility and took three visits to take it down.
The highlight for me is when we got spotted by two enemy fighters while we were over the mud. They were high, but one was diving down towards us. I was in a Bristol, but with extra guns. I was close to gun range with my nose up trying to meet the Albatros for a head on pass. At my angle both my wings obscured the view of the enemy completely when he got close. My weapons buttons are on my mouse and can mash both buttons to get all sets of machine guns firing at the same time and the Bristol fully armed really packs a punch. Anyway, I was firing blind all barrels and hoping we didn't collide.
The Albatros came into view, passed right off my left wing, so close we could have shook hands, completely engulfed in flames.
Wow......in VR one of those kind of religious combat experiences.
Reminded me of my first Combat Flight Sim experience in Crimson Skies when I shot a plane down that exploded right over the top of my glass canopy. That was the moment I decided I had found my home for gaming
A great night of flying, fun flying as a pair with Dawg, great mission
