Hiyas!
I prolly have a different method...I've flown the 51 for 9 years and high speed passes against a skilled pilot is futile.
I fake the pass until about 2.5 out...hold that distance above the bandit and wait to see how much patience this guy has.
The goal here is to get him to climb to you thinking he will get guns on...as he begins to do this, I nose up slightly and roll over on a wing, apply same direction rudder, keeping nose up, and opposite aerilon...skids the plane so to speak. The key thru this maneuver is to keep eyes on the entire time and to position ur plane directly over the bandits.
When he realizes that he cannot get his guns on, he will level or roll out, at which time you roll over on top of him. No matter which way he goes, you will have guns on for a shot as well as E to re-saddle and try again.
In the majority of cases, the re-saddle part will be unnecessary

Hope this helps...remember, it will take time to perfect this, so proceed with caution

Hope it helps!
Rude Out!
PS....Dont forget the all important SA!
