I didn't even have to finish reading the post.  Anyone who leaves their ride hanging on the prop is already dead.  Sounds like lame flying on the Spit's part to me.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Yer both HO dweebs

    A successful rope would have been decided when you lifted your nose, did you know then? no. you can't shout "rope" just because you're above the target, it's a deliberate move you have to set up from go. A successful roper sees the victim flailing with zero energy just when he dives back in, she still had vertical lift. Nothing but a pure HO merge by both of you.

    I concur with erica. lame. but, by both parties.

How many bloody times do I have to say it.

If its NOT nose to to bloody nose from  3k out guns fireing its NOT a bloody HO.

Anything else is a forward quarter shot in a manuver fight and PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE! IF they didn't want to get shot in the face they shouldn't have followed you up.

Its been that way since beta, its always going to be that way. Get your terminology right and quit whining.

Has something to do with slowing the airflow over the wings, cut lift totally out of the equation for a second, as to make you just kind of float.

Try it out, you will notice the stall is much less violent and you can hang that extra couple seconds.

fun stuff.

Someone has some serious insecurity issues.


When one of you get the chance call him a lag/warper on 200 after you kill him and we will probably be treated to a thorough breakdown and report on his internet connection and how a packet gets from his ISP to his home.

I don't think that is what his post is about. I'm looking at it as a common occurrence in the world of ACM and a good question.

Torque as well. In some aircraft torque can help you do an immelman at the top, in others it can get you into a flat spin as you stall over.

Sometimes I will just to stretch things out and "float" over the top just to make sure I've set the hook on the bogie really good then lower a notch of flaps to swing my nose down and then increase power as I dive.

I watched the video and she fired first you were only defending yourself. If she didn't want to get shot down she shouldn't of followed you.

Sounds like a rope to me. Although Im not a fan of ropes and its usually HP of the plane winning the fight, many people fly that way. But, even if it was a HO, people do that too. Alot of people hate losing in here. Some deal with it better than others.

Ack's got it right.
If anyone try's driving up my tailpipe and i have anything to do or say,then your gonna get a blast of hot lead in the face.

Dont let someone who messed up make you second guess yourself.
