THE DIVINE WIND

 

Recognisable Traits

Yells Banzai on radio and power dives on ground target prefer Allies shipping.  Head on attack at bombers with no intention of pulling away. Primary values in the way of the samurai and Bushido code loyalty and honor until death.

 

Common Location

 

Anywhere there is Allies shipping.

 

Typically Flies

 

Anything that can strap a 500kg bomb under or bigger. Preference given to Zeros specially M5 model 52 lol

Saw some of that on 'Zekes vs Wildcats'. Never did it myself, but there were times I'd fly the 'Okha' rocket/bomb/plane wile one of my OL flying friends would "host" me as the G4M 'Betty' "mother ship" and get me to a launching position where I could whoosh through the thicket of Hellcats and Corsairs and sink a ship. It cost me "my life", but we won a few maps that way.

Max Hubris

 

Once a common sight during the Il-2 Pacific Fighters era, however can still be found in several different guises today.

 

Recognisable Traits
Owns the boxed set of the documentary series "Dogfights" on VHS and has taken all the mythologies of aerial combat to heart.  The Max Hubris has absolute faith in his untested abilities and purchased his first flight sim specifically to "KICK BUTT".  
 
Common Location

Seen only very briefly on his maiden flight and often introduced by a combative, warlike user name:

 

Server: Welcome, Zeke_Killer from USA!

 

Zeke_Killer: ALRIGHT!  TIME TO GET ME SOME MEATBALLS!!
 
about six and a half minutes later...

 

Server: Zeke_Killer has been killed by Ojisan_Kenji

 

Zeke_Killer:  Shit Shit Shit Shit Shit

 

Ojisan_Kenji: S!

 

Server: Zeke_Killer has left the game

 

Carguy: Ouch..

 

Hetzer: LMAO

 

Feathered_IV: Oh my lol

 

etc...

 

Typically Flies

Whichever iconic US muscle plane the History Channel currently reckons won the war

Feathered_IV nailed it. Brutally accurate at that.
