Re: Terrible luck
For me...it just happened yesterday. 1st battle of LC as Germany - '39 - Had a meeting engagement with the Poles. I swear all my planes were being flown by the same pilot.
I had 2 Spotter planes and 2 flights of 2 JU87 Stukas.
First turn I have 1 spotter plane do a fly over of an VC section. Just as he arrives on scene, he is promptly shot down by a Polish AAMG section (I think it was a Tankeska or something like that - horsey drawn cart with machine gun plopped on top). Next fly over attempt, same thing though the last thing he spotted before hitting the ground was that AAMG cart. Frustrated I soften the area up with artillery and send in 1 stuka to hit a suspected 75FG site. Incoming Stuka swoops down and 3 MG shots later, is resting in a small pond. Rinse and repeat this 3 more times. EVERY single plane mission I flew was shot down by MG's. I'm guessing this poor pilot simply just got up, dusted himself off, reported back to base and went back out.
