I just wanted to salute Ripsnort for a good 190 vs. 190 fight last night. A pesky f4u got in our way, but it was still a fun fight on the deck using the terrain and what not.
S!

Wow, I feel honored! Thks for kind words guys!
Regards to the fight, once I'd drawn the 190 on my tail(you) away from the group of reds above(ran!) I dipped over the canyon and went low, so you wouldn't see my initial turn to reverse back into you..once I got
into my reversal, and started the high yo yo, I noticed how well the enemy (you) were staying with me, I thought "We have no avg. 190 driver here..." and the adrenline kicked in, man, when I was done with that fight, I'll bet my blood pressure would have busted the balloon!
Thanks again, it's many many many flights, then you have a fight like that...that's what keeps me coming back! <S>

Yeah you got me w/ that reversal, I thought for sure you'd nose down for speed when you crested that hill. I looked over and saw you at 3:00 and though uh oh.
I turned into your turn and that's when I saw the f4u, so instead of cutting of your angle, I had to extend for speed to meet the f4u. Then I got him to merge me in the vertical from above at 1k ft (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) no manuver kill though (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)
Then I augered watching you attack me from my 6. was a realy cool crash though, I would have lived had you not been there to finish me off hehe.
