There's something in the air on the FH map of Rheinuebung.

It's a new day and the same map. After 2-3 minutes of waiting on the air craft carrier for a plane, I manage to jump into one of the spawning Fairey Swordfishes, Andrew jumps in as my tail gunner.

I hit the throttle, and the plane goes screaming down the deck of the aircraft carrier, just as we leave the deck, a german fighter sprays us something fierce! I can no longer see the damage bar for my plane, I've got a smoke trail that would put most coal fired trains to shame, but were still airborne. Much to my surprise, we spend 10-15 minutes in the air, running back to the carrier to re-arm, and running out to various german ships on bombing runs. Andrew even manages to take out the crew of a PT Boat that was gunning for us. Impressive!

And that's where everything went wrong. Andrew out of nowhere goes:
"I wonder if I can shoot my own tail!?"
*TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK*
*Sizzle Sizzle Sizzle*
*BOOOMMMMM!!!!!*
"I guess that's a yes...."

I turn to Andrew and in my best Sean Connery voice yell:
"I'M SHORRY SUN! THEY GOT USH!!!!"
