Wonderful dogfight Supongo!
« on: February 17, 2001, 12:48:00 PM »
 Here is the guncam from my view of the dogfight we had last night. I unfortunately shut the film off before your gallant and very noble <S> and departure instead of finishing me off as I honestly would have normally expected.
 That fight had to be the longest dogfight I've had with anyone, anywhere    Other than two 109's in the beginning it was really nice to have a one-on-one in the MA for a change too. And it probaly is also the only dogfight I have ever had that went UP and not down onto the deck, sooner or later    We started at 10k and slowly wound our way up to 25k as we jockeyed for position and hopefully the kill.  That 109 can climb like nothing else though.

 Another notable, and a special one at that, was neither of us took the easy head on shot. That is rare these days. An I'm guilty of doing it too. Glad I did not last night.

 You are a most worthy opponant.  I heartily your skill and sportmanship. I look forward to meeting in the air again some day soon

Supongo is a hell of a pilot, and a good sport.  He makes that G-6 look like a G-10.
