Thanks Sledge42, was a fun fight! My neck was sore from the TrackIR, it was fun even getting smoked at the end there :cheers: :salute

Also..if anyone has any advice or critique, I'd love to hear!

Good stuff, those LA7s are tough to handle down low, especially in a 35 ENY plane with no WEP that is good at high alt. You did all the right moves, keeping it vertical and using your strengths. Only thing I might do different is flatten out your dive on him earlier so its a lower angle of attack, going straight down on him builds up your speed so much that you compress while he can easily duck back the way you are coming. With a lower angle of attack he will have a harder time reversing below you and you'll keep him in front of you easier for the first pass. The 38G is a nice handicap, I think the fight is over much sooner in a J or L. Glad you were able to get him before his reinforcements came.

Sledge is a good stick. You did well against him. I don't fly the G, but if I had been in a P47D-11, a couple of spots I would have tried a roll into a scissor. But prior to that, you did generate a couple of good shot opportunities, so like me, you just need to shoot better. :aok

It's tough to keep emotion out of it! I go in with a plan then get tunnel vision as I see red. Definitely need to shoot better, thanks sir :salute :cheers:
