Not!
Last night I'm up in a C.205 headed toward a port that had just been taken from us. On the way I get B'n'Zd by a 262. No biggie and he flys away. A few minutes later I engage a P-51D. He's got E on me and keeps engaging, run... extending, and re-engaging, always with enough E to extend away. I'm also watching the whole time for the 262 to come back.
Then I see a Zeke coming. I try to climb, WEP on but the Pony's got enough E to match my climb and keep me engaged. I finally get the Pony to commit to a turn or two low, then sensing my opportunity I begin to climb WEP on again. As I do I see a F4U fly by under me and reverse but this time I had enough E and am out of guns range with all 3 on my tail.
Eventually, first the F4U, then the Pony break off, but the Zeke keeps following me as I ru... rtb, 4K back. As I approach my base we're now at 20K and that pesky Zeke is still 4K back so I reverse on him. He comes straight at me and I HO him... poof. Then I land my one kill.
I sort of felt sorry for the guy. All that effort. I can just imagine what he was thinking... "Ha!, I'll vulch him when he lands. I'll kill him if he turn fights. I will RULE!"
