Time for a change

[Dragon Tamer]

I would like to add Jenks, I was at 15k earlier today and he must have been at 20k. He circled a few times and I was working to keep him off my six without blowing all my E. I beat his first pass but his second pass he gave me a PW. Knowing he wouldn't let me get back to base I continued to fight. The whole thing went from 15k to about 6 or 7k. Every time I got on his six I would black out and when I came to I had to figure out where he had moved to (usually my 6). I didn't get a lot of shots on him because I was blacking out for most of the fight.

I was honestly expecting a quick reversal then the 51 dives for the friendly ack/ runs away like I've done plenty of other times. Next time I'll be more wary.

  Jenks for one hell of a good fight.

Jenks is one of those old school dogfighters.  You always feel good if you can survive the encounter.

Somebody drag a dead horse in here for Shida.

It's true though. I like threads like this but the FBCrabby & Zacherof witch hunt is already at 152 replies and 2380 reads. The AH community likes soap operas, let's face it.

Looks like we have more quality fights during EU hours until about 6:00 p.m. GMT when the bashing starts...

As xbrit stated during our conversation: It's all about the fun part.

Yes sir, that was a great fight!  I knew I was in for a good one when our separation never got more than a few hundred yards.  <S>

Wasn't the kind of special I had in mind... 
hehehe...you know I'm kidding but I do want a rematch, it was a great time.   

As for the original post...I have had a lot of good fights with a lot of different people, too many to name.   
Although I had fun dueling 262's with a rook a while back...awesome time!
And trying to throw myself off a cliff in a jeep for the 3 seconds of air made for an excellent night.

Agreed.  The best fights are the ones between evenly-matched pilots.  The best best fights are the ones between evenly-matched pilots and the fight is concluded without either one having fired his guns.

Some of my favorite fights are the ones where my opponents catch me under less than ideal conditions, usually shortly after I up or on climbout.

One of my favorites was one day a couple months ago I was a minute or two off the runway in a P47 D11 when a pair of P47s (one 47M one 47D11) came in about 6k alt.  I started heading away from them to build some E and they came down.  What ensued was a very tactical fight, at least from my end, where the D11 was attacking me somewhat aggressively and the M was pretty much making sure I couldn't get away and keeping me low E and taking the occasional swipe at me himself.  It reminded me a lot of watching a hawk teaching its baby to hunt.  I eventually wound up getting nailed, but I felt I'd made them work for it a fair bit, and also felt like I'd had a couple chances that I blew.  The M was LilMak, the D11 was a squaddie of his.

Anybody who actually fights at 20k plus is also an enjoyable fight for me, although those are exceedingly rare.

One night about two months ago I found Triton28 over water, co-alt in a K4 vs my K4.  No one was around and 5 mins later and with both of missing essential parts, he went down.

(What I never told him was I went in about a second after he did.  I decided to let him think I had actually beat him)

We both unknowingly (but hoping I'm sure) lifted again and flew to the same spot, I in my K4 and he....well, he didn't show up in a K4.  He arrived in a B-38 and I died.  He cheated and he knows it.

I vulched Changeup one time.   And it was good.
