HitchHikingFlatlander Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 A great classic happy ending story for the Hog and it's pilot. I've read that one quite a few times. http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomdeplume Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 It is amazing that every time I get hit I lose a wing. What are you getting hit by??? I've almost never lost a wing, even after being hit by multiple MANPADS. (Not that I do that often, mind you. :music_whistling:) Normally it's the hydraulics that go.

HitchHikingFlatlander Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 LOL Yeah I seem to lose hydraulics or an engine or two usually! Although I have lost wings too. The question shouldn't be what are you getting hit with but how are you getting hit in the first place............... Any sight of the Hog and the enemy should be running! In a perfect world at least. http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambler91 Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 What's really annoying is flight computer weakness.. It takes no more than a few hits in the wing to take out your systems..

vrv Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 best part is a chick pilot brought home that hog safely. Female pilots are where its at for many, many reasons :thumbup: Women know how to comfort the enraged and battle damaged Hog. They caress it passionately while commandeering that avatar of absolute carnage, destruction and death back to its home. They softly whisper in its ear, jink its joystick around while gripping the throttle back and forth. It's battle-damaged is healed and once again it returns to the bloodshed where it belongs. I once took a Shilka volley and a MANPAD before making it home. I had no hydraulics so I had to crash land and somehow my aircraft didn't explode on the runway. I could have ejected but I asked myself where's the fun in that? I don't need a Martin-Baker Fan Club membership...I already have one.
