Would be a fitting analogy. Old, slow and with a huge gun!

That's a common way of following Dicta Boelcke's rule no 1.


That's a classic advantage to exploit.

yes But I engage even when I don't have all the cards....I have only taken on this type of sortie in the last couple months really, I have always fought the hoard, but I am sick of giving away easy kills so now I make them work for it.

but no matter what situation I find myself in I ALWAYS engage the nme.(unless of course I am bingo then I will try to get away)

 now I fly the KI84 mostly.

You won't get an argument from me about the horde. I hate them with zeal! The Ki 84 is a fun bird for sure.

Love the ki84, but its cocpit annoys me. Looks so small and cramped. and that little window to aim through sucks. for me atleast.

The longer I fly, the less I pay attention to who has the advantage and just get to the fighting.
