The cool breeze
Yes, I was about to say, here I am, enjoying the cool breeze of my balcony in a comfortable deck chair when my Sis interrupted me when her keys were stuck in a box. Its one of those magic toy boxes where u shut it, and let another person try to figure it out. She somehow shoved the tray in the wrong way and the whole thing got jammed shut.
Anyways, managed to pry it open. I have no idea how she managed to shut the thing in the first place... My sister and her amazing feats of strength.
Woke up at 12.30pm today. Too lazy n tired to go to school, so stayed home and bought lunch + dinner for the family. Did 1 sortie on falcon4, running some balkans campaign. Buggy as hell with floating runways. So it was kinda impossible to land. Everytime I had to land, I might encounter a floating runway and have to make for a divert field or fly far enough to turn around hoping the terrain would re-render. Wenta visit my grandma in the evening, she's doing well. She's complaining abt the hospital food already... well its traditional for hospital food to be bad. Thats how they get rid of patients. Came home, had dinner... and finally, started work on revising my maths.
Took a bit of break in between to fly another sortie. This time a suicide mission... The 2 escort F-15Cs, Bison 31 and 32 were blown to bits before the ingress. My wingman Bug32 got hit by 2 AA-7s when we got jumped by some MiG-23s. I took a shot at 1 of them, and dove for the deck and raced towards my target area... 80 miles away. The trip below radar detection altitude was uneventful except for a few Sam launches that didn't get too close. Target area was hell. It turns out the runway was covered by a neat configuration of SA-6s, SA-4s, and SA-3s. Shot my last remaining HARM at the SA-4s FCR, and turned to my mavericks to press the attacks. Since I could visually see the SA-ring around the airbase, I switched the mavericks to visual mode and quickly slew around to lock n launch. The whole process was nerve wrecking especially when I saw I missed 2 MiG-21s that were in the area, with their rinky dinky radar tracking me already. Fortunately, I saved 3 AMRAAMs for occassions such as these. After taking my shots on SAs, I filled the air with aluminium shards and turn 180 to get the hell out of dodge. On the way down, Shot 2 AMRAAMs at the 2 MiG-21s for getting in the way. They didn't stand a chance against those silver bullets. Further down the road, 2 MiG-25s on CAP veered towards me. Went full AB to climb to 34k ft, got a nice launch position on 1 of the Migs, and tripped a couple of SA-6s, and SA-2s on along the way. As soon as I got the pitbull, it was down to the deck again with 2 missiles at me. SA-2 went for the chaff, but I had to go orthogonal on the SA-6. When I reached homeplate, guess what? Its the floating runway bug... thankfully, an international airport was nearby, and it wasn't bugged. =D
Back to Maths. It sucks. Thats all I have to say.
But still managed to get a good amount of questions done. Lesson learned when dealing with proving questions. If both sides of the equations has "advanced" trigo forms, eg, cosec, sec, cot: work both sides to their simple forms first before attempting to solve. It works a lot better this way. Lesson 2: Simpsons rules questions are free marks. MUST DO. Lesson 3: MiG-21s aren't worth 2 AMRAAMs, should save it for capping foxbats in future. Woops... sorry, where was I again?
listening to the rain...
