right on. Two wing nuts were getting ready to do some air to air combat training - one was the Wing King.
They called tallyho and off they went. Seems one of the 'dummy' sidewinders was not so dumb and the Wing King got his @ss shot off.
Sooooo funny...in an expensive as heck sort of way.

This was way back in the 80s. LOL

Hoo-ah

ouch ... that reminds me of a little story from the early 90's ... I was developing software for a Health Care Provider and one of our consultants picked up Micro Prose F-15 Strike Eagle III ... not a bad program ... since he and I both had dual telephone lines, we'd play head-to-head while chatting over the speakerphones on line 2 ... sometimes we flew wingman configurations, favorite target Iraq (this was 1993) ... on the way back from yet another successful "mission" (hehe), I had a couple AMRAAM's left .. I was following and started feeling a bit onery so I painted him as a hostile target and let the (autonomous) AMRAAM go ... he starts screaming that he's got an incoming missile to which I suggest immediate evasive action ... but it was too late and the missile got him in a dive ... after he hit the chutes I 'fessed up ... hehe ...

a few weeks later, he slid in behind me on the way home, and let me have it with some cannon fire ... he got me back ... hehe ... gee whiz, you shoot down your wingman and they take it personal ... LOL ... we had a lot of fun with that game ... and I was on my 486DX-33 ... whew, high-tech ... LOL ...
