...you may not be able to reply but I just wanted to send a
for your reversal in the 262 tonight. I was annoyed with myself when you shot me down so I jumped out to check the film to see what you did to reverse so quickly.
Learnt something: gotta be snappier on my reversals when you're around. Pity it cost me a 262 to learn it lol. Oh well, plenty more perkies to burn. :)

Did he get banned again? (If so it is not for lack of trying :) )
What manuver did he do in 262 BTW?

I was trailing Fester at about 2k, co-e, both of us in 262s. He was running for friendlies so I thought "blow it, he can go". I then did a lazy immelman. As soon as I started to reverse, Fester did a tight immelman, leaving him about 3000ft lower but with about 100mph more speed. I looked back and saw him at less than 1k after I completed my reversal and though "how the heck did he do that"? I spiralled down and started a rolling scissors but Fester got in a single ping on a snapshot and the 30mm did the rest of the talking. I had to view the film to work out how he'd done it... Like I said, learnt it the hard way.
