Capitaine Vengeur 263 Posted April 27, 2012 In case, also consider the unofficial Russian rule: "If you can't shoot it down, ram it down! Falling alone is a waste." Take it or leave it, but admit, what a memorable way it is to take one's leave with panache! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Javito1986 14 Posted April 27, 2012 I certainly have fond memories from my own ram attack in OFF. Or rather, the only one I lived through. I've collided and died plenty of times. Those weren't so fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flyby PC 23 Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) Sgt Ray Homes of 504 squadron famously rammed the tail off a Dornier over Buckingham Palace during the Battle of Britain and survived to tell the tail. Tee Hee - just googled more info - When he got out of hospital, guess where he was sent. - Murmansk, to teach the Soviets how to fly Hurricanes!!! It's a funny old world isn't it?
