I entered the dogfight game, took off, and noticed on my radar that another player had spawned behind me on the runway. I did a quick circle, and to my surprise he was coming right at me, only he was directly below and lined up perfectly with my airplane.

In fact, he was positioned just like I approach a hangar to bomb it! In that second, I realized that I hadn't even dropped by bomb, so I thought "what the heck" and let it go. Sure enough on the bomb cam, I hit him right between the ears, or eyes or struts if you prefer, and he burst into flames and left a nice trail of fire behind him before sputtering out.

I doubt that will ever happen again, and I certainly got a good laugh out of it. I think I would've laughed even if I had been on the receiving end. It seemed so improbable. Has anyone else ever done this? Dropping on a bomb on a tank is satisfying but this took the cake.

I have hit another plane in mid air one time by total accident lol it was a teammate and we were bother trying to destroy a tank and I would have hit the tank I they hadn't got in the way. My favorite is the rare tank to plane shot.

I got Shoe once that way (by accident). Too busy to realize it but I saw the message pop up and I knew that I hadn't fired a bullet. Shoe came back and confirmed it.

It was at that point that I decided it was going to be the only method I would use with Shoe moving forward. I may need to rethink... :S

Ya you were the 2nd person to do it to me on accident lol. Happend to me 2 times in one day. But i was alwase on the receving end lol.

I have downed 10 planes at least with tank while they were flying. They were all with luck thoue. I just drove and shot the ground below them when they were flying low to get me and it luckily killd them. I got atlest 4 doing that and the other 6 were shooting them just as they come form behind the mountain or he hill. It is very satisfying to do that. But bombing a plane with your bomb I have done only once and have been killd by 3 times lol. I think badluck13 cursed me. Every time i fly with him somthing odd happens to me. He was in 2 of the games i that someone bomb killd me lol.

I love shooting planes with my tank. I'm pretty good at it, but it's realllllllyyyyy hard. :P I've shot a few at long distance, maybe five or six, that's mostly luck, some skill and experience. Quite a few at close range, 20-30, maybe. My record is seven in a game. B) :)
See you in the skies!

Once. I've done it once, and it was pure luck. It was a Destroy the Carrier game, and I was in a tank trying to get a few shells into the enemy carrier. One of my shells scored a Delta Hotel on a plane circling near the carrier.

Yeah, I've also been bombed by friendlies taking off - it is a fiery way to go. Never managed it on purpose though.

Tank to plane kills are fun. You can hide just behind the bridge by the south base or the bridge lake and catch low flying planes taking off from base or coming in to bomb carrier. Should get bonus points!

I did try landing on the zepplin today for fun but bounced off and almost hit the rudder... :P

My DF first today was landing simultaneously on deck in Capture the Carrier with Allan and Doghouse, we did the double landing trick and captured the boat pretty quick - looked cool.

I assumed this wasn't unique to me, and thanks for the funny stories. I've only been shot down twice by a tank that I recall, but both times happened in one game, and the same person shot me down both times! He was even more impressed by his feat than I was, and each time he shot me, his comment was "sick!"

I bombed a plane before. I was flying and my finger is always tempted to tap the BIG RED BUTTON so I did it and I bombed a plane right under me I died to though. . . And then I was laughing so much and I told some of the people flying with me and the were all like "I've done that before" and "It's so easy" and I was dissapointed :dry: so I didn't really talk a lot during the game.

I did a tank to plane shot before like 1 or 2 times it's so fun. I do it when they come really low. And sometimes when there are other tanks using the "aim" screen I sneek up behind them in a tank and the I say in the chat bar "HEY 'name here' LOOK OUT!!!!" and then i shoot them it's so fun. I did it a few times but mostly I miss and it goes the other way around. :silly:

I do that to noobs in planes, too. When I can sneak up behind them, I type "HEY, ####, LOOK BEHIND YOU!", wait a moment for them to read it, then BAM! They're dead! :laugh:
