1st one is a bit long...I grabbed a 38 for a fighter hop then realized I had a couple of 1000lbers on board...got caught by an la-7 on the inbound hop but had enough seperation to pickle off the ord...anyway ended up with a 1 on 2 vs the la-7 and an la-5...I'm a pretty average 38 driver so nothing really fancy...just fundementally correct acm ( I think:))till they both mess up.

2nd one is short and sweet...just a basic 38 style stomp on your head move.

No clue why I threw this one in...bisquits took my base so I had to land on carrier (which I suck at)...perfect landing profile right up to bounce by mr la-7...ended up bouncing her on in with an extra pelt.

Wow thanks Humble.  I'm off to check these out right now.  Its always amazing what you can learn when you see the situation and reaction through another person's eyes.

Levi, that's quite the demo... :)  Nice flying, gives a good example of predictive maneuvering and how you look around almost constantly updating your SA.. fun to watch.

One hell of a "how to"...what always amazes me soda when I look at a clip like that is the gunnery...almost no wasted shot opportunities in whole clip and almost no misses....amazing stuff.

Thanks, everyone!  Mostly I hope that JoeBWan takes something positive away from the film.  Even if it doesn't help him to counter such a move, I think it will certainly aid him in performing it.

And let's face it, performing that manuever is a lot more fun than countering it.  :)

I'll tell you what .. I watched this film when you first made it available, and it teaches VOLUMES. This film is where the "vertical" finally made sense to me and how important it is to dogfighting. Thanks Levi.

What I liked the best  was how I came in the end of the film and saved you from that final Spit ...  :D

I think Leviathans "crazyfun" and Wt's "film137" are 2 of the best films I've watched. Thats no slight on the others, as many demonstrate excellent recoveries and impossible escapes. But those two, it just seems everything gels (sa, acm, gunnery and a little luck).

I certainly did take a lot away from that, in fact a lot more than I had anticipated going in.  There is so much stuff going on in that film, and almost every time I watch it I catch something I missed the time before.  Thanks again!

he is flying the spit5 in the film.  practice in it to get the timing down before you try doing the same in a 38.
