I doubt that.   He's rusty, but maybe by the 10th sortie....  :)

last time he reactivated for a day, the whole squad sat in line to get him while he was rusty. None of us could get him, except maybe bruv who took a couple rounds..

He HOed me a couple of times  and used being rusty as an excuse but he is a freak of nature for sure.  Midway you are very brave to question the force of my FPH.

Bruv is still, by far, the hardest for me to get.  Other members of The Few i think I've figured out.  Think I can win 2 of 3 for all except Bruv, although not certain -- yet.    Not bragging....   Just saying....   :)

Kazaa is a question mark still in terms of actual experience.  I have films of him and can tell he is very smart how he flys.   :aok

Btw, <3 The Few, and have I said recently Bruv is really awesome? :headscratch:

 :D

Spitfires are magic.

I have been a Spitdweeb totally through my years in AH2.

And yet Ive had angry people PM me after I have chased them and forced them to Auger in a JU-87. And how I have gun killed 190s in a Lancaster after a dogfight.

If you get good in a spit 16 with stall limiter off. You can fly pretty much anything. The snap stalls and the lack of speed and range teaches a pilot to manage EVERYTHING.

I found getting in a K4 or a 38 and even a Jug. And falling quickly in love with them.

But I always take up my Spit 8 in the end, flying the Aussie silver and annhilating any who oppose her righteous might.

Fine line between brave and stupid.    :bhead

I was jumped by a high spit 16 last night while in my 38J. After about 12 turns in which I only got a few pings on him he shot my pilot. I rarely have issues with spixteens but my margarita limit was close at hand and well....... that was that.  :rofl
