@0.47 can any1 tell me what the manuever that pony pulls is called? or wether it an actuall "official" combat manuever or just something the pilot pulled at the last minute.


and also, is it possable to pull it off in AH?... :pray
ive done the flat plate many a times on enemies. i have never been able to kill a fighter DURING the maneuver though... well theres a new challenge for me to overcome. Starting now im gonna try and pull a flat plate kill :aok

i wonder....did the p51 shown in dogfights, have a combat camera in it?

be amazing to see that footage, to be able to tell wether he actually did pull that manuever off or not.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but did gun cam not work only when the guns were fired? This means that, in this case, all we would see is the actual shot looking similar to a head on.

I'd have a better chance in running into a Dodo Bird in the middle of rush hour, walking down the I-5 with two hookers in tow before I see a useful post from glock89- Ack-Ack

i rarely film. will try to film it sometime uptown. its really simple to do once you got it down. not always the best maneuver to pull in fights though for obvious reasons that youre letting yourself hang for a split second where anyone but the guy on your six can pick ya. actually if you want. try and meet up with me in the MAs and ill show it to ya because im not good in doing films at all...

I did almost that exact move once in AH by accident in a Tempest but I only reversed 180 degrees, not 360, and I've never been able to replicate it even though I've tried.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

I saw the Lomcevak video and I think i do a move similar all the time in the 152 check it out.

uptown. the move there like others have said isnt possible in AH. The flat plate is very similar and i doubt i could kill while doing the maneuver... though ive seen crazier in the world of AH :rolleyes: . forgot to mention that in my last posts

Umm Pervert, that dogfight episode orginated on the History Channel not YouTube.  But I fixed it for ya .  :D

yes! maybe just weird stuff yesterday but I clearly put taters in an LA7 and pony, twice into the pony nothing!!
Don't think it was any kind of game issue maybe some weird lag or glitch! most times taters do the job  :aok
