Wolf,
I get your frustration.  When I first started playing I had a rough time with the vet pilots.  Thankfully back then there were plenty of other "baby seals" so I could still get some kills.  Now the game is mostly populated with vets - some who fly hundreds of hours each month - and that is a tough environment.
You have basically two choices (IMO) - get better, or start playing the victim card (yelling cheater, etc.).  One option will be better for the life of the game and will eventually give you more enjoyment.  The other - not so much.
In my 20 plus years of playing I can confidently say nobody is unkillable.  There are some who are at the top of their game, but they can all be shot down.
Don't get discouraged - get better.  Film all your flights and review what "went wrong."  I have found a few of the better players in the game will go to the training arena with you - if you ask.  Eventually you will start winning more fights.
Good luck to you.

I think this is good advice, however, when you are at the top of you game (as I was in AWdos days) you usually have to put in a lot of time to stay there. I noticed my timing would slip and I'd miss shots that I usually would hit if I took a few days off. While this might not be true for everyone, I know that some don't have the time to put in to stay at that level and I think it's not encouraging to give people that are just playing for fun and don't have egos the size of busses crap because of they "lack of skill" Some people just play the game for fun too.

This from a fighter pilot wanna be, there is an old saying "No matter how good you are, there is always somebody better."

I agree with ZE.

So it appears my reading comprehension is fine, so you may have some accounts to pay for.

TheJudge once called me a Soy-boy libtard for sticking up for TheStig (whose first language is not smack-talk) and complaining about his Mr. Scott-connection. I had to Google it but apparently it is an insult. Is that worth a six month subscription?

Somehow I have a feeling certain multiple accounts are effecting (or are cause of) this phenomenon, which again materialized yesterday. Not necessarily Damned accounts, as there are others as well.

No Stig didn't. Stig and I have been AH mates since I first came to the Furbal lake. He might be a Viking who could pull your head off with one hand, but he's been nothing but civilised since day one.

yes, it's worth it...

But only if you can create something out of nothing. Only if you can have your way at the right place and the right time. Only when your landing kills instead of being killed.
