Had one of the best all time fights tonight in an F4U1D vs P40.

Unfortunately, I was having the ole blank text buffer and radio bug problem so I have no idea who it was.

I was fighting out of A4 flying to hit the Bish coming out of A5. We must have started at about 6 to 8k. Two or three scisors then we must have rolled canopy to conopy about 8 to 10 times, in tight neck to neck to the deck. I got an aileron in one lucky snap shot as the p40 rolled in front of me. I figured he was mine at that point, but it took two more rolls before I finally got the shot. Great flying.

Who ever it was thanks for the great fight

Thanks Cooley, Great Fight. Flying the P40 starts you at a disadvantage, but you certainly handle it like it's an advantage. WTG. You wern't recording were you? Would love to have a film of that one.

LOL Spartacus

Thanks Engine.

No idea save, I was running the beta with the updates. I just downloaded the latest install and am going to start running that instead to see if I stop having the CTD and blank Text buffer problems.
