1.  I fly stupid.

2.  I fly when I can't legally drive.

3.  All of the above.

my weakpoint? I have none
lol I wish
My accuracy from 600+ is oh say .001%, that one ping is when they cross into my gunfire.
My E conservation is probably the worst out there, i can dive in on someone goin 400 and 5 seconds later i'll be in a stall. so there's mine.

Another thing: I can't ride the edge of stall as good as I'd like to. Many pilots are better than I at it. Maybe a pair of pedals could help, I'm not satisfied with the X52 twisty... :p

And, sometimes, like Ghast said, I found myself merely reacting at my opponent moves... (luckily it happens fewer and fewer times).

P.S. Language question: "fewer and fewer times", what would be a more correct and stylistically beautiful form? :D

Ah Gianlupo, I forgot how much I enjoy your avatar.

Anyways I think my weakest part is trying to run sheep down and flipping my tank over. Grrr. :cry

I would have to agree here.  I had a twisty stick for a while.  Finally sprung for the entire CH setup, stick, throttle and pedals.  Now I can't imagine how I ever flew without the pedals.  I could live without the trottle, but not the pedals.  

I know that I now use a lot more rudder in flight.  They often are the difference in getting my nose around for a snap shot, and some planes that don't roll well, like the Tiffy, can be made to do a lot more with more rudder.

<--- Can't hit the broadside of a barn with an Ostwind.  Big weakness. Big. HUGE.

I have found that the weakest part of my game is that anything low, stright and leval I cannot hit. I always get my kills in a turn fight, but when 200 off the ground and in the thick forest of green I'd be wasting bullets, but as soon as they turn I got them easy.

Thank you! :) I knew that wasn't the right form, but in that moment I couldn't thing to anything better... and it was pretty easy, too! I'm dumb! ;)

Rumblebee, happy you enjoy it!  

Carwash, thanks for the info, I always thought pedals are better than any other rudder control.
I had not many problems with my previous sticky, but the X52 is too big for my hand, I can't use the hat switch and have a proper control over the rudder! :p Sooner or later I'll buy those pedals

What utter and compete BS, quite frankly I should kick you off this bbs for this post.

The real truth is you do not like the answer.

My fighter bag of tricks is still empty... honestly the merge gives me the most trouble, most here have no problems with it.  Hence, my problems.

Gunnery is up there for me.  And snapshots.  I could survive so many more fights then I do now if I could hit the shots that are presented to me.  I'll miss or do no damage on nice crossing shots, and I can't count the number of times I have roped people, and then completely blow the shot, and then be out of E.  I like to think my SA is above average, but then again, I have pretty good views in my ride.

One one other weakness, not like I don't have others lol, is that I tend to react more, and do the same old BFM's.  I'll do this, but it just allows them to gain angles.

Oh, and any type of scissors.  Someone 17's can cut inside of me, and then have the E to follow me up:cry .

Oh, and if someone's 400 out on my six, they might as well count another splash.
