Bloopers?

Was trying to nail rotor wings, that 40 point TE mission. A couple times I flew into some exploding whirlybirds with no ill effects. Tried ramming a couple when I eventually ran out of ammo, nothing. Then one finally bit me, after I apparently tried to suck it’s explosion through my intake. My poor BLK52 returned to earth in a grey envelope of smoke, exploding upon impact. My view wouldn’t let me look at it, but I certainly heard it. Sorry, no pics/vid yet.

My wing was doing a little demonstration competition and this happened on my first take lol…

Had a bad day flying a campaign in bad weather:

Ok. Put yourself on situation. You just came back from a campaign mission north of Pyongyang. Long flight with bad weather, AAA and some Su27s. Come back home to find a crosswind above Dash 1 limitations (29kts) and some turbulence. You get to land, taxi to the parking, get chocks on and prepare to “enjoy” watching your mates recover against the crosswind. You feel totally safe and then… (from minute 26 to 27):
It was not me who recorded it, I was (luckly for me) four planes to the left. Got scare but not so much like the author

This could’ve ended a lot worse.
