Last night I was fighting Shado in his c205 v my p47m.  We had a turn fight that was going up in Alt.   I had more E(I think).   I was looking out the window waiting for the 205 to stall.   His nose lifted in one last attempt to get a solution on me, and he got a single shot on my plane.   That shot when into the canopy for a pilot wound.     I hung around for another 30 seconds or so before deciding to head to base.   Generally speaking I'll give my opponent the chance to prove he's not a ho before I open up. Shado was on a direct line to my base, and I broke my rule and opened up first and we actually ended up colliding, which I'd say was 90% my fault.  I got the kill, but my engine was dead and I started a glide back to base.  I wasn't going to make it to base, but I was getting close enough for a ditch.   Shado re-upped his 205 and tracked me down and got me for his deserved kill right before I passed out or it the water.  Well done.
