Fun with Creton.....
« on: November 18, 2006, 02:10:19 AM »
We finally got a chance to spend some time in the DA/TA....a whole bunch of clips. Won a few lost more then a few and had a blast. Easily the best 109 angles fighter I've ever run into.....

I'll sort thru and post the few that were the most fun (and not completely embarrassing:)). This is the last set in the TA and probably reasonably representative overall. It's tough to tell in the TA since you dont die but he certainly landed more lead then I did....

The last fight shows a move he has that totally baffles me since he seems to be able to repeat it at will. He easily converted to what I came to call the "helicopter tail slide" anytime I did manage to force the overshoot. Definately something i'm going to try and learn.....

hehe I think you won about 2 out of 3......

When I looked at the clip I posted I was struck just how much I appeared to be thinkinag ABOUT flying the plane. If you look at the earlier T&B clips (before 2.09) I have the hog hanging every which way and it never slips, spins or refruses to obey:) ......

Just looking at the 2nd one (99% sure) where you hammer me in the scissors I look like a noob.....just completely unwilling or unable to put the hog on the slow edge of the flight envelope.....amazing how fragile confidence is:).....

Looking forward to doing it again....
