Me and Bip roll from A7 in 109K4's because we see 2 cons on radar. There is nothing else within 2 sectors. We begin to wep climb and head towards the two close dots on radar. It takes us about 2 minutes to get up to 10k and we see 2 specks above us. We continue climbing to around 12k and they finally appear in icon range. Take note of the altitudes.
well we ended up spotting two 109s they where low and at the time no threat ,so we took are time and tryed to set them up
BiP and I were the two low 109s at around 12k and were no threat. We continued climbing as they circled us at 28k waiting to strike. When we finally had climbed to 19k, they decided it was time to pounce. Now, there's no reason to insult their tactics (even though the other P51d was an established regular player) but to say the least it was extremely timid. After about 15 failed passes at us, E's were beginning to equalize at the now 19k or so 'fight' ensuing. At about this time, I was able to connect with a 30mm tater on a miscue one of the P51s made and took his wing off. BiPolar at a very similar time mark, unfortunately received a radiator hit while trying to dodge the 15th or so spray attack.
Bipolar began his decent to land his wounded bird while I was now left with the remaining P51D at around 17k or so. The P51, frantic without his wingman, decided his best course of option was to run (at around 15k) in what might go down as one of the longest, most boring chases I have ever experienced. We were deep in friendly territory which was completely empty of any action, and was about a 3.5 sector stretch from his friendly base he was RTB to.
I chased him for about 10 minutes without even a thought of engaging the only con within a 50 mile radius. It was as if he had put his plane on autopilot and went to Subway to order a sandwich. BiPolar landed his K4 and upped a Spit16 at the base between our location and his base. Bipolar climbed to 17k, and came our way to try to intercept him. The P51 then decided survival was no longer a priority. He had avoided combat at all costs until now but decided it was time to take a stand! He pointed his nose at bipolar's nose and began to fire away! Bipolar obviously was completely content with jousting with the P51 who had flown so high and run so far that only legends are made of. Bipolar won the joust and we laughed about the set of events that had just occurred.
