Not close to a HO and not a cheap shot. IMHO.

No need to respond. Just wanted to post for the lazy one.

I promise you next i will pull over then going up after 2nd merge and shoot you like you did me...................
As you can see i was going up instead of pulling over to get ho shot. So I learned the Midway will take the cheap shot anytime.....

Looks like a frontal D to me. What is cheap?

honestly, that wasn't a cheap shot at all. It was a perfectly legitimate angle that he took the shot on, regardless of your maneuvering intentions, you presented a perfectly good shot opportunity. The only thing Midway can really be faulted on is the shot grouping, but he's flying a with wing mounted guns so he probably is hitting out of his convergence.
Without the film, would be hard to say what you did wrong but from the screenshots and your own description, it looks like he was able to get under you on the initial merge and used more of a climbing turn instead of going vertical like you did. By going under, he'll be in position to get an angle on you as you went vertical for the 2nd Immelman. It's a counter for a merge when the other bandit is going to go vertical immediately after the merge.
ack-ack

A film would be helpful for a proper discussion. Based on what I see here Lazy gave you a perfect profile of his airplane which made it an easy shot. Lazy, for future references I recommend you roll 90° in order to make yourself a much smaller target.

In the first screen shot, your plane should be rotated 90 degrees and you should be pulling upwards for a rope, not coming nose downward at midway showing him your full profile. That cannot be disputed. If you didn't have enough E to rope him, then you got dominated in angles previously to the screen captures. That is really all there is to it, with no disrespect intended, just the truth of the matter.
Edit: Looking at the speeds you were roughly 30 mph faster FBlazy, you should have easily been able to twist your plane 90 degree and rope him.

Note the P38 in icon range. Makes me want to end this fight a little faster. I took shots when I could as long as he did not have guns on me.
But even without the P38 there, I would have done the same.
I really didn't want to make a big deal out of this one. Just wanted FBLazy1 to see how he looked to me at the point I fired.
-
I go with, "Just because you're in your up view doesn't make it a HO."
:noid

I sure hope we don't have to go through this every time it comes up for you Midway.

Me too. I just wanted him to see it :ahand and posting it here was my first thought. Had no question and needed no response. I do appreciate the feedback though but don't want to waste anyone's time. :)
:headscratch: I guess I could have just told him to look at my photo bucket site. Oh well, learned for next time - just thought of that.

You know better for next time Tangzu :aok

Midway's screenshot will be showing slightly behind what Lazy saw. While it was not a HO it was getting close.
What Lazy was expecting was a classic DA dueling merge where the two can be slightly lazy (excuse me) in the first immle, because they expect the other guy not to fire to make the fight more interesting. Lazy was clearly pulling round to head on in this screen shot, but was behind Midway. That is why the shot is perfectly legit. It is a courtesy in duels between friends not to fire on this type of shot. In the Ma after a long ch200 argument I would have expected no quater myself.
No Ho, not really that cheap for Ma grudge. Just Midway gained angles for the shot first. Midway however is posting a single fight, and the encoutner lasted about an hour. Lazy got in his share of owning midway in that hour. Poor taste to post this thread, imo.
fun, fun! :angel:

Two cents:
1. Expect the HO, your defense is your business and no one else's.
2. Lazy would have one if he were in his P-40 'o doom :bolt:

both are vey good pilots,better than I am anyway
however I have NEVER heard FBLazy do anything but complain about being killed.
its always "I am not flying the same plane" or" you pickedme",nice HO,never ever Good kill ,or nice moves.
of course I expect to be called out into the DA next time I am on,I might even go,I will get killed one hundred times in a row but I will not make excuses.

I enjoy fighting him but what I mostly hear after I shoot him down is "wait for me in the same place" or "what's the matter you scared to fight again?".
Both of which make the 2nd or 3rd kill that much more enjoyable. :lol :neener:

Bern1,
I guess you think that's all I am. That's fine.. I've given many quality pilots compliments. I guess you know what that makes you.

Funny statement Midway. Seems our 1 vs 1 favors me. Yes you made a good shot on me his time my mistake.

You forgot the challange you gave me already after I shot you down the first time?
Said in your frustration that you would kill me 4 out of 5. I promply downed you on the first two after that. ergo challange --> failed <--. Hard to win 4 out of 5 if you're dead after the first two. :ahand
You said up again. I did. You shot me down due to a mistake I made, but that was after the challange was over. You wanted me to up again and I killed you dead as pictured. Boom! :ahand
So I'd say yesterday was my day in the sunshine... although Friday was yours, that is true. :D
... and let it be known that FBLazy1 does compliment me. :salute :rock :)

You'd be wrong. Although TBH sometimes he phrases "nice moves" as "luky" :) But the guy he just fought gets it.
And Lazy will always give you a fight, and a rematch too.

Lazy, you're a good stick and a good guy but you do have something of a reputation for calling HO when no HO is present. One particular instance springs to mind where you inferred on 200 that I HO'd you while you tried to 'avert' which I let go only to discover later when reviewing the film (http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/IJg1Tp6xA45Zi2fUAsbs7BdTG9XxAHgXa6vplWtxs3mwJ-DrwqsqA6zPMjf0V1DmPBX5mQ_jrJx0LvkhqNrwKRXRwztitA/fbLazy1%20calls%20HO.ahf) that I was shooting at an entirely different plane and your 'avertion' was to fly at my front quarter with guns blazing. :salute
Midway. I'm glad you've grown so much as a Pilet. I recall your first few weeks here and despite your... eagerness to HO, there was a very evident eagerness to learn lurking beneath the surface. I'm glad you've used the latter to replace the former. :salute
And yes, I agree with most here, being HO'd is quite possibly the greatest gift an enemy pilet can give me.

when I get accused of being a HOtard I generally just say "yes I am" and toss out a salute. that way the fight lasts about 2 text lines rather than boring other players on 200 for an hour with it ...
eh midway? ;)
-
lol FB Lazy always with the insults
i rest my case
-
its strange how two people can have such different experiences with the same guy....I have never seen Lazy be anything but a good player that shows respect
:salute Lazy

:salute To whoever they believe I have insulted on 200.
Bern1 sorry you feel this way about me. If you're on the game hit me up for some DA to take out whatever negativity I've done to you or anyone else.
Due to the certain folks that have posted that I am negative on 200 I no longer monitor since this thread started, so if I don't respond to anything you've said to me on 200 sorry.
See all you all in the skies.

sorry FBLazy I really havent flown with you enough to have made any comments.
I do like the way you challenged me to the DA and made it sound like I challenged you very skillful indeed.
my feelings stem from a instance where i got lucky enough to shoout you with a spit IX and you went OFF!
telling me that I was spit dweeb and you would be in one next time ,happened about a year ago,I am NOT a good pilot so a trip to the DA would be very boring for you sir.
I dont have bad feeling toward you FBLazy you are a terror in that p-40,you just have a diff style than I do <S>
