I had a burning wreck happen to fall onto my plane from above.

I also "rear ended" a target and we both collided with one of my wingmen, who was flying across our path, hot on the heels of another enemy.

Took out the elevators of a B-17 with a Bf-110, in a Simulator mode Strike, and as we were on party mode, could hear the unfortunate player responsible for it cursing as it nosed up, stalled, flipped over and headed for the ground.

In simulator mode, power diving with a MC-202, pulling a high G pull up and having the right wing fold up due to previous damage incurred.

Catching and balancing a bomb on the wing of a Ju-87 for a few seconds.

Dogfighting a Bf-109 F4 with a Blenhiem and shooting the guy down 4 times in a row with the wing gun. (Seriously the guy was that crap!!)

Dogfighting an Me-163 with another Me-163 at over 40,000 feet.

Pulling a "Retournment" maneuver with an A-20 G and ending up on the tail of my pursuer for a few seconds. (Somebody came and stole my kill though).

Flyimg bombers in formation (loosly) withteam mates, during a Realsitic mode Strike mission.

formation flying is incredible in this game due to how much skill it takes

Had another strange one last night!
The P51 mission (sim) where u start by flying along the river.
Very early on I came in on a wingman and gave him a burst accidently, didn't seem to do much....
A good 15+ mins later (spent alot of time dogfighting) I got the call "damn that was one of ours" I definatly didn't hit another wingman as they had all died bar this guy!
...so did my wingman manage to dogfight with 8 axis planes for that amount of time, not get hit by them and then manage to crash in his own accord, pronouncing me the "killer"??!!?!?
That's all I can get outa it!

I was in a online dogfight, had just respawned at a good altitude and was looking down towards the sea to see the five or six guys all lined up down there, firing at each other. So I dive in aiming at the last guy of the queue. By the time I got there, evrybody was pretty messed up (exept that last guy) but noone had crash yet. So I manage to take out a few planes until I get on the 6 of the 2nd guy in line. His plane is riddled with bullet holes and I see him strugglin to keep the thing in the air, flying only feet above the water. So I decide to let him go down and concentrate on the first guy, since I was going to overshoot him anyways. But just as I putt the throttle up, I see his plane dive in the water and then poop right back out!!! - I overshoot - he fires a short burst and I go down in flames. Guess there was some lag at the precise instant the guys changed pitch inches above the water... but I distinctivly saw his plane "flying" underwater, and coming out just to shoot me as if nothing ever happened.
