there are a lot of stick stirrin' bastages' out there.

Otherwise, the guys with the 190's, Spit16's, Ki-64's, and F4U's that do the °180-°270 rolls, barrel rolls, or other such non-fish floppin' stick stirrin' move are hard for me to hit simply because of the immediate change in direction.  The planes that can't roll as well are not as much of a problem for my crossed eyes, shakey hands, and wobbly JS to deal with.   :D

Can't recall his proper handle...Japaneese I believe...was in the Ki84.  Unbelieveable...how he had it dancing.

Anyone in a Yak.

Oh..and Ghi when he takes his hurricane underground, only to pop back out 400 behind me.

Krupnski...except for when I force him to fight in P38s.  :devil

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

Pand, get tazz in here :)

I'm pretty sure I have a spot on his list for my epic 85mm avoidance in my chute :)

Latrobe, ya, how could I forget about him.

Real interesting too, is when these sticks burn your butt, it makes you feel good that at least you had a chance to go head to head with them.

Bighorn was always the absolute hardest to land any hits on... 

Many years ago I was dueling him and finally got an angle on him somewhere near the end of some really narly rolling scissors... he was below my plane and coming up right in front of me, I couldn't see him yet but I knew he was coming up and was going to be right in front of my guns as we were both to slow to do any "getting out of the way"... so I heard him coming up and just waited and then it happened... He had turned his plane to profile, and flew so close to my nose that even with my convergence set at 200, he flew between the convergence of my wing guns on the spit5 we were dueling in... no shiz... I pulled the trigger and watched all the bullets go on either side of him.... of course then he flopped over and towered me.... His best move was fluidly 'adjusting' to the circumstances of the fight.

For me it has to be Latrobe...... I'll swear he reads my mind..the other experten all out manouvre and avoid the guns on with dexterity ( i just never get a good solution on them) but Latrobe puts himself constantly across my sights to roll, slew or turn away just as I pull the trigger.
