Lol - perfect example.  Tonight I was in a g10 and saw Rude on the deck with a tiff, la7 and spit hot on his 6.  I rolled behind them, dropped my DT and was in a perfect positon. I was d300 and closing slightly.  
As I tried to reselect cannons from my stick, I gave Rude 4 or 5 6 calls, tried to drop my gear, my flaps and finally gave up. Heh, got one of them with the 12mm.  

Lol, at least I didn't bail out as a squaddie of mine did this week.  fediddleing stick.
