Title: There I was.......
Post by: Guppy35 on August 15, 2006, 02:41:44 AM

upside down in a rolling fight with a Ki-84 down low in my 38G.  Gawd I love those fights when they happen, in particular when I don't die :)

Ok Dan, fess up.  That cannot be your P38.  I scanned it with a magnifying glass and found no missing pieces, no bullet holes, no oil splash, no smoke.

Sooooo, was it your wingman and you were following in a badly mauled P38? :D

I dunno, only Dan would fly a perfectly fine P-38 upside down like that.  That's definitely his plane.

Upside down with the flaps extended.  Hmmm, you might be right.  Maybe photochopped?  :)

1,500 feet is only low if the base is at 1,300 feet.... Fighting between the trees is good fun.

I love fly between the tree patches. Its good visual training, and plane manuavering training.

1,500ft is pretty low for dog fighting. 10,000ft is good dog fighting alt. 30,000ft with 200 B-17s, 30 P47s, 40 P51s, 10 110s, 36 109s, and 42 190s, now thats a dog fight.

Nothing like hearing "BOOM" come from behind you at ground level.    It's the quickest way to turn a 2 on 1 into a 1 on 1.

It is the running joke between Bronk and I.  He was spraying and praying in a Panzer the other night too.  Kinda frightening :)

And I wish I could shoot, but I appreciate the faith Scot :)

This should help clear up the other thread for you Dan. Yes spray and pray in a panzer is scary ....Be afraid....very afraid.
