If they're going at me, head on for an easy kill, when I'm in a B25, they're asking for it. That's the only time I open up on the first pass, seems to work like a charm  :lol

*EDIT*
Thought this was the General Discussion forums, not an intentional hijack. Carry on  :salute

Why would you want to discourage a behavior which virtually guarantees the perpetrator will lose any advantage at the merge?

I don't ho for for selfish reasons. I welcome the ho for selfish reasons. If you ho on the first pass or complain about the ho it indicates a condition of tactical cluelessness.

This has been a public service announcement from your friendly neighborhood simian, offering clues to the clueless, free of charge.

h.o. attacks in bombers should be allowed cause they are sitting ducks in a turn fight. same for twin engine fighters. h.o. attacks by fighters should be regulated. no head ons on first pass. h.o. allowed if outnumbered (i.e. 1 against 2 ). this will cause all pilots to use their flying skills. i am tired of 15 second kills or being killed. make a fight of it. :)
