If I recognize a guy's flying style and he appears rtb, I'll ask him, even if he appears undamaged. If he responds he's rtb, I'll let him go.*  This was once a common practice.  

Nowadays it's mostly opposite. It seems like the crippled plane is the first target of choice.



*  There are several pilots I will give no quarter to, simply because I don't like them.  Also, no hordeling gets quarter, ever.

I'll let one go every so often if they are damaged and put up a great fight. If they just try to Ho and they try to go home I'll be relentless.

I was called a dirty kill stealer last night in the MW.  I removed a Spitfire's wing tip, spiraled around and then came in and finished it off.  He apparently thought there were two P-38s attacking him because he told me I was a dirty killstealer with no talent and the other P-38 should have rightfully gotten the kill.  I took offense to the dirty kill stealer comment, it hurt my feelings and I had to log and call my mom.

do you and ack ack share a brain?

you both go out of your way to mis quote........and/or feign a fake understanding of what you already know someone is actually saying?

I think you mean that crusty old clown with the Mossie as his avatar.

If he had no elevators, he was not a threat and you should not have shot at him.

I didn't. I didn't state that explicitly - I never said whether I fired or not. I made a move that doubtless looked as if I were about to shoot up the falling leaf. As I stated, I couldn't SEE that his hori stab was gone until I got up on his six.

Anyway, I was offended at the implication since I've never intentionally stolen anything. I logged off and called Ack's mom.

She invited me over.

Yep.   I've let MANY folks rtb.  Because we're both banged up, or I banged them up that time.

I do not see it as a large and frequently occuring problem.  It does lead to some fun sparring on range for entertainment purposes!   :D
