Riiiiight....
The other day I was in the MA with the A8, 30mm loadout.  Some squaddies and I were patrolling this ridge line intercepting bogies.  I spot a 109 close to me and co alt.  I turn to merge.  At about d1.3 I fire a salvo of cannons and MGs then break (which is what I always do.  It punishes the pure HOers and scares away anyone with sense).  Well I spotted ONE ping, so I looped back around onto his six to find he wasn't really maneuvering, just diving.  I thought he was trying to run, so I chased.  But he augers.  I figure he just compressed in his dive and think little of it.  On channel one this person informs me that I blew off his entire wing, WITH ONE SHOT.  Let's see your hispanos do that, buddy.
