Sunday night I was flying around a61 in my handy dandy FM2.  I noticed several friendlies on the deck and was content watching them finish off a couple of red guys.  I had look around earlier and didn't see anybody who was a threat, so I was flying straight and level, fat, dumb and happy.  
The next thing I know, I got a check 6 call from a guy named slot.  I looked behind me and didn't see anything, but fortunately I decided to take it as real and started evasives.   As soon as I started turning, I saw a Spitty on my 6.  Apparently he was behind & below me.  I managed to evade, and soon afterward slot cleared my 6 by distracting the Spit.  A few turns later & I got my sights on target and got the kill.
 to slot.  If not for his 6 call and then clearing my 6, I would have been an easy kill.
