Did you ever have one of those tours...
« on: August 07, 2011, 10:09:57 PM »
... where nothing seems to go your way?

Feels like at least 3 of the wheels came off my wagon this tour.  Running low on fuel, I decided to take a swipe at the low 110s trying to take V85.
This happened so fast, I couldn't avoid it.  Blasted a 110 and his wreckage initially appeared to be going up.  I quickly tried to duck under and momentarily lost him in the fire on the base.  His plane rolled back left and down into my wing:



14 seconds worth of film posted shows how fast things can go wrong.   :cry
