hey dot,
i was in the furballs going on between a27, and a30. at one point, i was in a fight with you. i think i was trying to clear you off a countrymans six, although i didn't get there in time.
i was able to pull enough lead though to get a shot off at you as you turned and entered a climb. as i was shooting, you managed to turn ungodly fast, and my shot ended up being a ho pass at ya. as soon as i saw your nose pointed at me, i let off the trigger.
i mostly just wanted to apologize for the ho pass......it wasn't intentional, and i have a bit too much respect for you to do that delibretly.
<<S>>

No worries. I'm not one to get mad at stuff like that; especially if I do something stupid like go into a climbing turn when I shouldn't. The thought of a HO never crossed my mind. I get mad at myself because I still have lots to learn and get myself into situations that I shouldn't be in, but you won't see me spew bile across 200 just because I get killed.
Your apology is not necessary, but nonetheless accepted. :salute
Here's one of my dumb moves:
Saw a countryman trying to get back to base with a con on his six. He was very close to base...I upped with the intent to help him out. I got past the far end of the runway and he zoomed past me; I zigged when I should have zagged and collided with RVFlyer who was hot on my countryman's tail. We both died and I immediately apologized. We both had a laugh; he was on a suicide run and fully expected to die anyway - just not like that.

Better then the 262 running down A77's runway yesterday when I was taking off, poor guy had field de-acked and was vulchable, but he forgot the 109k4's climbrate and he slammed me from behind - next thing I know he's dead and cursing me in private for ho'ing him when I got hit from behind.
Oh dear how Guapo would of loved to see that =(
