That was a fun fight for sure, Think its probably the longest undecided matchup I've ever been in. Did you notice the advantage swapped back and forth many times? I forced the overshoot on you to start with, then we fought for position, then the scissors, then you make a full turn, get some lead on me, we end up in scissors again, with you in advantage, then i slip behind you again, etc...

Yep, that was a definite nail biter, I noticed you had exactly the same amount of fuel that I did, with the same loadout in the same plane, kinda like it was meant to happen or something.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Theres something to be said about the quality of pilots in this game. I have gotten into some pretty awesome fights with a lone con, rolling scissors, all kinds of moves, and I'm thinkin, "Who is this SOB!?!? He's freakin awesome!!" the fight comes to a close only to see some handle I have *never* heard of!

There are guys lurking around this simm who will kick my bellybutton in a heartbeat. Seems when I played WB's, if I was flying in the main arena, was flying along and got bounced by a higher plane, if there were no other guys around, I could generally work him down and eventually get guns on him. Your average MA pilot wasn't a friggin hartmann. In this game, the opposite sometimes seems true! If theres a lone plane somewhere, and you are co-altitude, you better be careful, because he might just turn the tables on you real quick.

This is in no way a slam on WB's, just amazed at the skill level of many of these guys.

Oh yeah, did you notice my lil fake em attempt?

When you first got on my long 6, I figured it was you again, so I typed something in the buffer like " I'm up in a 190" to try to make you think it wasn't me. Hey, I'll try anything.

No apache, unfortunately there isn't. I was on climbout when I looked back and saw his 109. I rarely use the film utility, but I'm definetly going to have to start using it more often.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

 Til the zeke showed up. It was like watching softcore. A lot of flopping around, no climax.
