They weren't even out for the Squadron there but just so hellbent on hurt and revenge that they just wanna hurt us in some way by killing at least one of us with certainty. Jesus

@rubinellemahrahn65915 жыл бұрын
If you consider how badly damaged his plane was from the missile and whatever else hitting him, if he said the electronics were bugged out, it was only a matter of time before the planes main systems, like the engines, cut out, and his plane nose-dived anyways. Given how far away November City is SUPPOSED to be from the ocean, and how precise he'd have to be at controlling it, he probably just COULDN'T manage it, not because of skill, but because of the plane itself. Keep in mind, when the electronics of the plane go out completely, you can't steer the plane AT ALL. So as devastating as it is to say it, Chopper DID make a good decision, despite it sucking absolutely. Don't worry...Getting vengeance for his death was just as satisfying as hearing he survived would have been.
@rubinellemahrahn65915 жыл бұрын
@David Price First of all, we don't know WHERE he was hit. Bartlett's plane took a near-miss to its left wingtip, which meant it had limited mobility, but could still fly fine. From the sounds of the battle chatter, which you clearly ignored in your attempt to bully your point into validity, Chopper took a more substantial hit, because the ELECTRONICS in his plane were shutting down one after the other. And guess what the plane needs to keep from jsut dropping out of the sky?
@rubinellemahrahn65915 жыл бұрын
@Potato King I doubt he had a choice in the matter. By the time he even GOT to that point, if the canopy wasn't blowing and his instruments were having issues, that meant his engines had probably given out as well. Which meant maneuvering his plane wasn't an option either.

It still requires an Electronic Signal to detonate the canopy and the RIO and Pilot seat in the correct order... otherwise, you end up with the same situation as Goose from Top Gun, where an electrical fault caused the Explosive Bolts in the Canopy to detonate improperly and resulted in Goose breaking his neck when the RIO seat tried to launch while the Canopy was still attached.

I believe the headcanon that while not planned beforehand, he intentionally didn't eject when the opportunity presented itself, unlike how Nagase did in mission 14 despite the conditions. He was already complaining about the state of the war for some time, and I imagine as well Thunderhead and Nagase starting to get annoyed at him during missions had also got to him over time, as well as jet lag from numerous hours-long flights between Sand Island and Yuktobania, and to eastern Osea as well at least 2 times
