the niki pilot does not handle g's very well

[valdals]

i had a bad experience in a niki yesterday. i was in a dog fight and blacked out in a turn. i have done the same manuever in the zero, spit, hurricane, and ki61 and never had this happen. i had to bail out.

That's becasue the "string" rides up his butt crack in tight turns

How much fuel, ammo and ord were you carrying at the time?
The n1k is pretty nimble with 50% gas, the light ammo loadout and no bombs. Use DT to get you where you're going. It's never going to turn as well as a spit, zeke or hurri.

The nik is also faster than a zero, so if you did the same maneuver, you where most likely going faster and of course you black out. Oh by the way, you do recover from black out in a few seconds, tho sometimes it feels like its hours. No need to bail.

when you black out in a dog fight its best to just bail out. or otherwise you will get killed or crash into the ground. fuel load was 50% drop tanks released 500/400 gun package no bombs. i was on the tail of a 109 when he turned inside of me. i blacked out trying to match his turn.

what kind of 109???? 109E

the 109, whatever the model, may have been slower so it would explain why he turned inside you without blacking out

109g2

Consider the source.
 
Judging from the time and frequencies of the posts, squeaker season must be officially open.

The only time I've needed to bail from a perfectly good airplane is when it was a C-130.

  Are you serious, dude?

What arena do you fly in, and for what country?  I'd love to get lots of free kills.

I can see it now...
ValDals: "I was on the cold six of an enemy, closing.  He turned slightly.  I sneezed.  I figured it would be best if I just bail."

 

[SFCHONDO]

This dude has some serious mental issues. 

[Sloehand]

No, this dude just doesn't know anything about ACM, combat flying, or comparative aircraft performance characteristics.  In other words, he's a newb who thinks he's worked out how it's all done on his own because he's just now started to learn how to fly the plane straight without augering and knows where the trigger is.
