Yeah, I usually lone wolf it too. 

Interesting fact for people who want to look like a badass:  Hitting a light aircraft (Reaver, Scythe, or Mosquito) with the default heavy assault launcher will kill it in one shot.  It can be awesome to go around hunting them when they're trying to kill infantry.

Hahaha, funny story that.

The only time I managed to successfully do anything inside a mosquito was when I crashed into a scythe. He was playing chicken with me. I don't think he realized I didn't know how to turn.

I'm making an NC outfit named "Bay12" on Matterson.  If someone starts a better Bay12 outfit I'll delete it to free up the name but for now join or don't join, no commitment.

I was shooting with a vanguard at a magrider on another side of a river when a scythe in the middle caught my bullet. I was pleasantly surprised

[Darkening Kaos]

I was in the Phalanx AV turret outside the warpgate when a scythe came at me both guns blazing - one shot and it was raining flaming debris, I think both of us were a little surprised at how effective that was.

[Cthulhu]

He probably thought it was the AA turret.  Serves him right.

[TheBronzePickle]

It's bad when the AA turrets are big 'shoot me' stickers for air of all things.

Yeaah... I noticed that too. They also can't aim for crap.

[Darkening Kaos]

I have come to believe that AA means 'Assisted Suicide Booth - Please Shoot Me'

[MorleyDev]

Got caught in a proper dog fight with another ship. Was actually really fun. Controlling with the mouse takes a bit of getting used to, but when you do I was all woooh splish pewpewpew flying around. Pulling U-Turns, going on my side and barely missing rock formations, flying upside down, doing barrel rolls and flipping over the enemy to get behind them to bambambam.

Was nice is why I'm saying. After awhile of dancing I took down the other flyer, but ended up with my ship nearly destroyed. Of course then I saw a bunch of enemy foot soldiers gathered in the entry to the base. You wanna know how a Terran dies? At ramming speed.

[umiman]

Hahaha, nice. That's the only way to go!

[bluejello]

I found that plane flying mouse sensitivity was too low for my likes, at the max.  I like high sensitivity for my mouse input.

[kisame12794]

Technically you can ram at any speed. So, yelling ramming speed only serves to tell everyone to hang on.

[QuakeIV]

Ramming speed is traditionally approximately 110% of the theoretically possible maximum velocity.

[Darkening Kaos]

Best laugh I had last night was a Scythe sitting still while shooting at some infantry and I had a clear shot with my Heavy.  A single bullet later - merely a chip in his paintwork - and he hits the turbo, lag-warping back to the warpgate.  What a pussy.  I probably only did one point of damage.

[TheBronzePickle]

I've managed to kill a few stupid flyers with my LMG. To be fair, though, they mostly rammed themselves into stuff trying to get away. It's cool watching their health get whittled down, though, if they don't pay you enough mind.
