Title: Multiple Enemies
Post by: Messiah on June 30, 2005, 02:24:19 AM: Heres a film I took of my spit being attacked by many enemies, you may find it useful if you ever have been in this situation since its common to run into a horde in the MA.

Messiah vs Skyrock (http://www.geocities.com/themessiah_911/MessiahvSkyrock.zip)

Notice the throttle management through the rolling scissor. In the end Sky eventually gets my 6 after I spin out of control and theres nothing I can do.

Rolling Scissor Fight (http://www.geocities.com/themessiah_911/RollingScissor.zip)

This one demonstrates the rolling scissor and how to use it effectivlely. Note the throttle management at the top of the scissor in some points. Also notice that the enemy did not freak out when I peppered him on the first shot - this told me he wasn't a newbie and I stuck on him like glue :) .

Enjoy the film.

Not knowing your flight background (if any other than sims) you know you can get out of a spin with the right control inputs and enough alt.

Once your in a spin pull your power back about half way, look at your turn/slip indicator. It will tell you which way you're spinning. Center you stick with just a tad nose low input and add opposite rudder to your spin. Hold that for a couple of revolutions, you should eventually stop spinning. At this point roll wings level and "slowly" adding back stick to bring you nose up. Watch the airspeed, if it stall again you will go right back into a spin. Once wings level add power as needed.

Of course all of this is crap if you spin at 1500 ft....lol.

If you are an actual pilot then I hope I didn't insult you. With over 4000 Hrs in military and civilian aircraft it's sometimes hard not to be an instructor.

Post by: Messiah on July 08, 2005, 04:19:49 PM: I was doing the correct methods to pull myself out but my airspeed was still too slow. Once it went up a little more I did recover from it but thats what gave skyrock the advantage for the rest of the fight.
