So, you're saying you ran into a Spit driver who had no idea how to do anything other than turn?  And exactly how rare is this?;)


A Hurri I has no chance against a Spitfire Mk IX or Mk XIV that is flown to its strengths.

Bingo. I was happy to have him fight my fight. He tried a lot of scissoring, but I stayed with him easily.
