If you stay full power in an engagement... you will be in the tower.

Appreciate the constructive post! I really have to disagree at the full throttle while scissoring though, using full power in a scissors(vertical, horizontal or rolling) is just asking for a quick trip to the tower. You need to work your throttle while scissoring, and that rarely involves going balls out unless it's near the bottom of a roll(in a rolling scissors) or to help you nose around in a flat scissors that has gotten extremely slow. TBH flat scissoring should be avoided altogether, 99% of the time there is something better to do.

I'd even wep in vertical sissors. Helps get a higher angle.. I'd say going anything less than full throttle would get u to the tower much quicker. People who chop throttle in these situations are easy to spot and easier to handle in 1on1 duels once you figure out they're chopping throttle.

I'm sure times are tight for great authors such as yourself with all the plagiarism going on due to the interwebz these days.

Lilsquid, now would be an appropriate time to humbly apologize for lying.

Then actually write your own ACM manual.  Here let me help you out, and it won't be plagiarism because I'm giving the title to you for free, but do not list me as a co-author:

"I suck and this is how I fly"


I am torn between laughing (because this is such and incredibly stupid post) and crying (because I will have to trust your generation to run this country when I am to old to fight back).


I hearby nominate this as "Best Fail Of the Year"
