Thanks Shuffler.
Yeah, it's not just the move but also who I'm trying to avoid, or kill.
I've been riding the P-47-D-11. The "Razorback". I posted a thread on the jug a while back and got some great help.
One piece of advice was to say that it zoom climbs pretty good and that I could use the verticle reverse as an aid to escape a bogey on my six...........it hasn't worked so far and I have changed "tac" and avoided fighting in the verticle with this plane. Although I still use the Zoom.
In the the 2 or so weeks that I have been flying her I've kept the fight above 5k to give me room to dive away from nasties and avoided vertical tangles with TnB crates. Kept my E state high (stayed above 200). On engagement I stay fast and only do 1 turn and then bust out up to alt and wait for another go. The advice I got was that the Jug is an energy fighter and if you're low and slow it's the first target. That tells me it's a BnZ machine.
I'm trying to find out what it can and can't do and stay alive to keep trying new stuff with it.
AH is a geat game and is keeping me awake at night thinking of what I did wrong each time, but hey I'm learning.
Thanks to all who've chipped in with tips
