I just KNEW those planes were out there

I have that happen where on my screen it looks like no way the guy has a shot but on his screen I am probably hanging there like a grape

It may ust be me...but it looked like this Reeb person had angular advantage pretty consistantly till he pushed it too far and stalled. After the falling leaf, he lost everything...but wasnt he in pretty good shape before that?

Reeb was too hamfisted on the controls and missed a few opportunities. Neither flew their Spitfires anywhere near full capability. Nonetheless, such duels are good learning experiences.

However, making excuses is bad form. If Reeb was smoother on the controls and a better shot, he would have won.

My regards,

Yeah, my favorite (and most common) statement after a duel is, "OK, what did I do wrong?"

The "300" spartans movie is based off of Frank Millers graphic Novel, which rocked btw!

Frank Miller was the creator of Sin City, a movie that came out last year.
