    If a cop managed shoot the gas tank on a flying plane, I wouldn’t even be mad if I died in that crash

      The fuel tanks are in the wings on most planes, they’re not that hard to hit.

        I would love to see you hit a flying plane, anywhere on the body at all, with a 9mm

          Did you know, other people have planes as well?

          True story, I even found one out in the woods hunting blackberries.

            And they make very difficult targets when they are flying over 80m/s and half a kilometer in the air

              So wait until they either land or take off.

              Come on dude, this is basic stuff.

                  The guy specified in flight, he never said where or how high it was flying.

              They’re not hard targets when they fly right over your house. Hell, if anything, I had to time my antbed explosions away from the time they’d fly.

          Just be in a flying plane at the exact same speed and acceleration so that in your reference frame it becomes easy

            That doesn’t change the fact that you’re not going to hit an object going 125mph at 9000’

              It absolutely does. Airplanes were being shot down in Vietnam with an SKS firing 7.62 rounds. Now, the question at that point would be do you want someone lobbing bullets into the sky so they can fall back down and potentially hurt someone or damage something? Absolutely not. But it’s not only possible, it has been done before.

                The planes dropping napalm were flying low, not damn near 2 miles up.

              Planes take off at a given air speed, not ground speed, so that wouldn’t affect anything.
