I ran into an F6F today at co-alt, and what I guessed was co-E. I was in an F4U-1D, a plane I don't fly much and am not very good in. I thought to myself, "oh me oh my, an uber plane, I am in trouble."
He started an early turn too soon, so I pulled in behind him and shot up his engine on a snap shot, causing an oil leak. Then I hung on to his 6 and waited for his engine to quit, and finished the kill.
I'm sure the F6F is a fine plane, and I'm sure I'll enjoy flying it too, but my first encounter with one was a good reminder of the old rule: it's the pilot, not the plane.
