It really depends on the exact location of the zoom climber but I might invert to keep an eye on him with the idea of a split-s or a roll-out and low yo-yo (depending on our relative positions) when the timing is right to serve 3 puposes:

1.  Force his nose into a pure vertical trying for the shot (with the added advantages that the extra pull on the yoke plus the pure vertical bleed his E)
2.  Avoid his shot by pulling through just above (from his perspective) his gun solution
3.  Gain E myself

From there the fight is on.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Just do as Tom Cruise did....

Hit the brakes and let them fly right on by.  Yes, Tim Robbins, "You're gonna do what?' is the right answer.

I thought Good sticks "watch" for the overshoot. no?

Depends if hes on dead six or an angle to me anyways heh. Heat of the moment situation there... Also depends on plane. But i pull a move prob not even a real move and causes them to overshoot and i can get a snap if my timming is good nuff. If hes on my 6 i'll turn into him (left since im in 109k) then pull my little move.:D

Depends very much on the rest of the cons behind/below the lala, but I would prolly go into a very shallow dive to gain some E, then level out and get as much separation between lala and the rest of the cons, until lala caught up to about 1.5k behind you. Then fight him aggressively maintaining alt (using vertical) and hope you kill him before the rest comes in.

The problem with these "what if's" is that they are entirely dependent on the other guy. The best laid out plan wont work if the other guy doesn't bite. In this one if the con simply refuses your move....

Since he's behind, below and significantly positive E your only offensive option is a climbing scissor off of an apperent dive for the deck...your turning back into him in a low yoyo of some flavor to create the E you need and the angles you need...the correct front quarter aspect should pull a shot which will lock him into a rolling vertical scissor which he cant win (assuming he's positive E by as much as you thought)....
