it was good seeing you in there again rtr.
yea........being in the soup once i passed 4 or 5k alt was friggin fun. had a couple of fights up around 10k in that mess. it added to the immersion, as it was that much harder keeping my eye on the bad guy. nraven managed to keep getting out of my sight, but thankfully he also kept missing me on his passes. i'm guessiong i'm getting better at dodging hi cons.

i got kilt once by our famous mapmaker

, and managed to kill a defector. unforttuantly. killing said defector set me up for usranger(our famous mapmaker), and i didn't have the speed or maneuverability to dodge his guns.
at least last night(unlike normal) i landed a few 109 scalps.
the funny thing is that everyone says that the p-38L is just a "J" with boosted aielrons, and dive recovery brakes. yet to me, it felt somewhat more maneuverable than my beloved "J".
i made some screenshots when i logged out last night, but passed out before i uploaded em. i'll get some up tonight as i get hammered.
