You Hun Bastards!!!

 

Look what you've done to my Wonderful Snipe!!!

 

I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU!!!!!!!!

 

 

 

[DukeIronHand]

Oh, a little paint and some straightening and you will be right back at it sir.

"Mmuahahahahaaa!!!"

[Slartibartfast]

It's okay bring it in to the workshop bit of canvas and 2 by 4 plywood a touch of Dope and all will be fine... Trust us...

Saw a wonderful piece of AI flying today. It was an Alb DV...he'd been shot up by one of my wingmen (a long way off) but I watched him as he desperately tried to control his stricken plane...then at about 150-200 ft, he lost control completely, and bought the Farm.

 

Have to say, I felt quite sorry for him... that's something I never witnessed in OFF.... quite amazing!

You wait years for a Snipe and the first thing you do is crash it - the CO will have something to say about that!

 

I don't have WOFF yet - how does the Snipe handle?

How utterly careless of you, UK

[Hauksbee]

I just knew Widowmaker would be back among us as soon as he strapped on that Snipe!

[rjw]

Just thinking about your forum handle widow, and looking at the snipe and thinking.......how utterly appropriate! :D

[UK_Widowmaker]

haha...Yes Beanie..She handles beautifully...Out turns most (if not all) of the Germans

Yeah, Widow doesn't even need enemies to bring him down - he can easily handle that part himself.

Mmuahahahahaaa!!!

You'll be smiling on the other side of your face Olham my dear friend...when you get one on ya tail! ;)

Widow;

 

Here is my first flight embarassing encounter:

Great post, Widow! Gave me quite a good laugh this morning.

 

And about that Snipe, I'd say you bent some of the main support spars but like the other say, some straightening, a little elbow grease, and some PC-10 doping, and it'll be good as new!

 

And take it easy on those landings! Those Snipes don't grow on trees, you know!

Snipes may not have grown on trees, but some other kites sure did! ;)

 

[almccoyjr]

Strange, I don't see it listed in Axis aircraft files, but you obviously met your first Siemens-Schuckert D.IV.

Yeah, I guess I will.

Due to several reasons I will only get WOFF in a couple of days or so.

It would be too nasty to order it now, and then not being able to fly it.

[von Baur]

Widowmaker, the hun only shot it up a bit. It was you at the controls when it crashed. Clearcut case of "pilot error" if you ask me (which you didn't).

[Wayfarer]

Today hasn't been the very best of days, and I don't usually have a cruel sense of humour - but your post gave me the first real laugh of the day, thanks!

[UK_Widowmaker]

In that case Wayfarer..I'm pleased it made you smile, and I hope your day improves (Friday 13th was always a bad omen)

[Wayfarer]

Thanks, I just saw your next thread and that's pretty amusing as well.

[JimAttrill]

Errrr... does that Snipe not have the markings of no 139 squadron which was a Bristol Fighter squadron in Italy?  Barker won the VC in a Snipe, but that was back in France. 

[shredward]

That is Barker's Snipe, poor bugger. Hope he makes it!  From what I hear, he deserves the VC for that fight.

 

     Cheers,

Widowmaker, I thought you'd treat your lady better than that after waiting so long for her.  tsk tsk

 

Truth be told, I was flying the Snipe earlier this AM and ended up making her look quite similar to yours Sir.
