Fatty, would  you care  to  go  on a Jabo with me?  I'll fly top cover and you take out ack  with  any fighter  with 2 bombs/rockets.

I'd like to observe you do this so I can learn on not to die from the 2nd ack killing me as I zero  in on the first...whats  a good time to meet in TA?  I'll be in there tonight at 7:00pm PST with YGSMILO, practicing ack  busting.

Not sure if I'm going to make it in tonight, if I do it'll be later (like 9 or 10 pac).  If you guys are still around, gladly.

If you're practicing on your own, I generally ignore the second ack, but I do approach so my egress will be at least 90 deg. away from that second one so that I can ignore it safely.

Two in one pass?  I'm messed with it, but found that you're either going too straight too long, or slowing too much to get a solution on both, or rushing the drop on each too much to make it practical.

Rockets I've given up on.  Strictly bombs, and largest your plane will carry.

You forgot the one gripe that I've seen time and time again. The fact that "explosions" disintegrate planes and it looks kinda silly.

When I flew I almost didn't want to blow up a plane just so I could see it spiral down to the ground. Blowing up a plane was depressing - 1 sec explosion then nothing.. there should at least be some pieces left (like a flaming engine) floating down to the ground.
