Hello all. I've been spending a lot of time in DA trying to learn how to use my new CH pedals. When I manage to get a 1v1 at a remote field, we agree on no HO'ing. Ok, so the merge is guns cold but from there I seem to be meeting some disagreement. After the merge, if I get my nose around first for a solution before my dueling partner I feel no obligation to hold fire. A HO to me is both planes have an equivalent solution on one another thereby nullifying the pass. HEAD ON meaning neither plane has obtained a superior guns solution on the opposing plane. Now if I get around first and get guns on but my opponent DOES NOT have a solution on me, even thought it will often be a very acute angle shot on my part, but still with no opposing guns solution on me. Some are calling the acute angle front shot a HO. IM seening the top or bottom surfaces of the opposing aircraft meaning to me that they haven't got guns on. To me both planes have to have guns on each other to be legitimately called a HO. In some aircraft, like a P40, you don't get a lot of chances to gain angles and I'll take a close angle shot every time. FROM MY SEAT THE OPPOSING CRAFT CANNOT SHOOT ME BECAUSE I AM OUT OF THEIR GUNPLANE. Have I been doing this all wrong or are people just getting pissed that I'm getting around faster and getting the shot first? Help me out here.
