B-17vsLancaster

[bronzewhaler82]

bronzewhaler really does put across some excellent points sometmes, makes me wanna cry wish i was that intelligent

Cheers mate! its not a question of intelligence i've just had an interest for years...at the risk of sounding really old - probably since i was only a few years younger than yourself oops: god, old man!) so don't worry soon you'll be telling this lot off about their lack of knowledge in no time! (although i must say - most people on this site know exactly what they're talking about...its just a few that spoil it for the rest...*cough* viper! *cough*


Cheers

You're trying to learn - which is what counts - unlike some of the guys here who just mouth off to get a response by the way i meant to ask just for the record...are there any women on this forum at all (i know its unlikely and no i'm not trying to get some phone numbers )

wut are we talkin bout?? to lazy to read

 

[Viper]

whaler you have an problem with your attitude,i have a name for people like you but it would get me in trouble....yes i have been in a 17(sentimental journey) NO i dont think they were idestuctable,they were completely killable,im not a qweer,just ignore me then and stop being such a ass.i say the lanc had little armourment and if it bombed in the day it would be slaughterd! and IVE BEEN IN A LANC 5 TIMES SO SHUTUP,PROLLY MORE THAN U EVER WILL !!! just calm down and just shutup,ur opinions are so hot either

 

[Viper]

there is one an hour from were i live in a museum,ill give u the site if u want it

 

[Viper]

the b-17 was shot down in the hundreds not thousands,and yes it was shot down pretty easy but the lanc would be shot down more

 

[Viper]

you should just try and calm down,there my opionions so shut your mouth

 

[Viper]

i like the lancaster alot,u havnt seen my posts obviously,yes the lancaster was one of the most classic bombers of all time but ive said this and lots of people agree,the lancaster was better bombing wise while the fortress was better as a plane,and i say one thing and your all over me,if you disagree with my posting you should keep your damm comments to yourself easpecially when they are related to me and what my intellagence level is

Viper, you must really want to get your posts up today


Anyways, I have a great idea.

How about no one makes any more personal attacks against another person and we all calm down. I come here (and everyone else should be here as well) to learn about WWII planes, and if necessary correct others to the best of our ability (including sources if asked for, otherwise retract your statements no one can find evidence of it - and yes it's because of the Corsair fiasco we have), not to read posts that are constantly calling each other names, carrying out personal attacks, flaunting national pride, ridiculing other nations, and various other things that should be done in private (or at least not here).

If you want to argue with someone about their sanity, make personal attacks, or anything similar (SINKA - this includes cyber-stalking ), could we please have it kept in PMs so those of us who don't care whether or not you like someone else here don't need to wade through this crap? Or maybe we should get a personal attack and cyber-stalking forum made.

At least the spam Cheddar Cheese and The Lan Kicks Ass post is often quite funny.

 

[Viper]

i agree,but i am getting alot of posts lol,if he wants to diss me he should do it over messenger not over a forum were everybody can see

 

[Viper]

and this is in the thread i created! i meant for this to be friendly argueing not frigen dissing people,whaler if you want to diss make your own thread,before whaler came we were all good

B-17 = best day bomber*
Lancaster = best night bomber*

* Excluding B-29s

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

did B-29's bomb at night? (if they did they were the best for sure)

i admit the lanc didn't have the best defensive armourment, but lancaster pilots did have an ace up their sleves, it was kalle the corkscrew, it was basically a series of dives, climbs and turns so the attacking fighter found in VERY hard to aim well and shoot, and this was possible because the lancaster was suprisingly manouverable for a plane that size.....................

 

[cheddar cheese]

yeah thas true actally, about the manoeverability

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

thanks.......................

 

[cheddar cheese]

[the lancaster kicks ass]
