Defensive Moves-Reversals
« on: December 21, 2003, 04:11:21 AM »
Greetings  :D

Would any1 be having FILMS on the execution of Reversal, ie..Split
turns, etc in order to evade the nme on ur 6.  I know... I know..
u shouldn't present ur 6 to the nme, but it happens to me a lot, try as I may to avoid it.

Prolly because I MERGE incorrectly & loose an experienced pilot in
my views  :(

Thx 4 ur assistance in this endeavor, I've read Drex's article, pro-
vided by Hooligan re Reversals, but m still unable to reverse suc-
cessfully against a wily nme  :mad:

Happy1  :D

When it comes to defensive tactics, just watch some of Drex's films.  I learned from them that, often, if your enemy isn't under your gunsight, the next best place for him to be is coming in fast on your six.

Best reversal I know of is a slow right turn until the con gets about 1000 out, then a hard left turn then full right rudder and a notch or two of flaps into a barrel roll. You're either dead or behind your opponent in no time flat.
