    dear fellows-in-air,

    at about 800 met, i got up at f6 which has been fired by a cv nearby (about 3 miles north-east f6) pretty surprised that the cv has not been moving, i send a message in golen channel. while i fought against red f4f, a golden buff cruised the specific area.
    he complained that he could not find red cv, but i saw cv firing at him!
    after a while he gave up, we discussed if it was a problem of graphics he is missing... but he said, he had seen a cv earlier this morning! :cool:
    i decided to down the cv by myself and started with 4x250 in betty. that was not enough, i reduced capacity to 68% and speed to 47 ft/sec.
    a second run in ju88 downed the cv with 4x500, host said:"f10 has been captured by gold" :mafia:

    the whole time (about one hour) the cv hasn't moved a bit! :confused:

    nobody else had been interested, a question in ch100 has been answered with:
    "the cv is carrying beer and grandmas" :eek:

    i am very happy i could serve golds with my x-ray-eagle-eyes to kill this clingon-stealth-cv! :D

    I saw something even stranger the other day, as I was flying to attack a carrier in a Stuka. Right after I released my bomb, the entire fleet suddenly went into full reverse, and turned around so they could continue on their heading going backwards. Not too long after this, all the other carriers began going backwards too.

    big bugs.

    cv was invincible too.

    summary:
    CV position is illusionary. usually stopped and invincible, each pilot sees it at a different place.

    just wait fix

    Hi Ledada,

    >i am very happy i could serve golds with my x-ray-eagle-eyes to kill this clingon-stealth-cv!

    "x-ray" is used to see through visible matter.

    What you did was to NOT see through INVISIBLE matter.

    That's not "x-ray", it's "y-arx".

    Regards,

    Henning (HoHun)

    Hi Henning,

    If we're dealing with complete, exact opposites, wouldn't that be "yar-x"? (I can't get the computer to type the letters upside-down and backwords, sorry.)

    Regards,
    Jochen
