Reginald Matheaus Hattenbrah: 5
Seeing all your allies on the offence, you decide to defend all 90 of the British planes who are inexplicably not doing anything. two nazi interceptors enter the blob of unreacting british planes, poised to wreak havok, but you will have none of that. You put your tea down to show whoever might be watching (somehow) that you mean business. Weaving in and out of your allies planes, you put shot  after shot into the two incursioning interceptors, striking them out of the aether and into the forboding earth below. Good Show!

Bear: 5
Your jacket manages to slow your decend to a reasonable enough speed such that when a plane convieniently flies under you, you only break one leg. Ignoring the pain (cause you're badass like that) you smash the cockpit window, toss out the single pilot, letting him scream down to the earth below, and take the controlls. You recognise this aircraft. It is a dive bomber, and it has all of it's payload intact. It has weak armament, but lots of bomb capacity.
Armament: single 20mm cannon
Payload: 20 50 pound bombs

Respawn: 3
You suddenly realize that you don't know how to fly this plane. You were not trained for this many buttons and knobs and levers and switches and pedals and... You calm yourself, and attempt to fly the screaming metal beast like the propellor craft you were trained to handle, and you manage to keep the plane on a somewhat stable flight path, albeit, you are slowly heading towards the ground.

Figure out how to fly this plane. I will not go down like Frost did.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

shoot enemies while going upward and in collision course. Eject before colliding with Enemy aircraft.

Respawn: 3
In desperation, you start mashing all of the buttons, pulling all of the levers, switching all of the switches, and twisting all of the knobs. Your plane falls out of the sky, engines dead. However, one of the switches yoiu switched launched the ejection system, so while your plane was dead, you might yet live!

Bear: 2
You pull your dive bomber into a steep climb, regaining the altitude you lost in your last skydive. You shoot your way through the canopy of planes, setting yourself on a collision course with a plane. You succeed in crashing into the plane, and bailing at the last second, but you don't realize until it is too late that the plane you crashed into was an ally. You are once again falling downwards with no plane.

Focus on gunning down fighters now with my HMG.  Fire one or two rockets at flat bomber engines if time permits. Never more than two per bomber though.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

Reginald (not to be confused with Reginald Matheaus Hattenbrah): 3
You are in a Close air support fighter, meant for harassing targets on the ground. It will do well enough in the air, but you might have a little bit of difficulty lining up shots in your sluggish plane.
Armament: twin 30 mm guns.
Payload: 2 50 pound bombs.

Respawn: 4
You manage to steal one (and unfortunately, only one) of the Nazi scouting aircraft, Crashing feet-first through the cockpit window, and crushing the pilot inside. The dying body of the nazi pilot cushions your fall to make it survivable, but still bloody painful. Your new plane has no weapons, but it has a large canopy, giving you a great view of the battle. There is also lots of German chatter on the short-range radio this plane is equipped with.
Armament: none
Payload: A dead german

Bear: 1
Landing in enemy planes has almost become routine to you by this point, but it seems luck finally ran out on you. A piece of debris from your last collision falls straight through you, cutting you in two. Your death was painless, and legend has it, your story went on to inspire a video game called "Just Cause".

Arnold: 2
You come around for a second pass, but the enemies had seen you before, and were ready for you. They learned to lead their target while firing at you, and turret fire from a nearby flat bomber peppers your hull. You take evasive maneuvers, and exit the fray. You are still flying, but one of your engines failed. You cut your speed to avoid a flat spin, and get ready to rejoin the fight.

Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz: 6
Seeing Arnold getting shot sent you in such a rage that you press the trigger down, and spray indiscriminately into the Nazi hoard. Your shots hit the leader of a squadron of Nazi dive bombers, disabling its engines, causing the plane behind him to clip their wings together. The two out-of-control dive bombers hit every other member of their squadron, sending a fiery ball of sharp metal raining down towards the ground. A few allied planes were caught in the destruction as well, joining the mass of debris and death. In total, 6 nazi dive bombers, and 5 allied planes were destroyed by your actions.

Fly directly into the hoard, then pull up and unlock my bombs into the furball. Hope for best.

Also chew on the wiring, because I'm a badger.

"Kurwa mać!"

Curse loudly over the radio then join in with other interceptors, protect allied planes.

remember those landing procedures, and try to land this plane for some basic repairs before rejoining battle, Patching holes in the fuel lines and such.
