Lol you killed a couple of chumps and bragged about it on the forums. People do this stunt a lot. And yes there are ACM maneuvers and tactics. Obviously these players were not experienced enough, or had extremely low E already and yanked the stick. Congrats on your kills though. I know it was a joke, but its a great example of how not to fly.
I never bragged about anything. I can understand why you may assume that though since that is the norm here. This was more of a, "what one can expect to see in an average sortie in aces high nowadays". Because more and more nowadays, unfortunately, this is the type of thing you'll see on any given flight. You're right they should've known better they have both been playing for years, and again, that is the point of the thread, they're not especially bad, they're the new norm.

 Look..I was just trying to give Floob a little perspective. Heck, Joe Black was squadie..talk about lag..none of his fault. Did/does he use it to his advantage?? I don't know..he's moved on.
 
 Point is..Perspective, Perception...and when you think you know 'it all'..you probably need take a step back, take abreath.
 Meaning no disrespect Mr Floob.

What gave you away was your compulsion to make me the subject of your posts instead of the topic of the thread.

<sarcasm> This is correct. </sarcasm>
The surprised and lost control excuse would only be a viable explanation if the fight had just started and he hadn't known I was there.

I wasn't referring to your victims...rather to the implied statements of a few other posters in the thread.

 Really? "The surprised and lost control excuse would only be a viable explanation if the fight had just started and he hadn't known I was there." never said he was 'surprised'............
 Again, elucidate and educate....

Why not?


Because your thread title. "The decline of ACM in the MA" and the text contained in your OP were clearly intended to position you as having superior ACM to that of your filmed "opponents" (quotes because we don't even know for sure if they knew you were there or not prior to the film start).  Positioning yourself as having superior ACM then overshooting (which you did) and letting you're "inferior opponents" kill you (which they didn't) would have been counterproductive to your agena, therefore you'd never have posted.

Not only did your opponents show inferior ACM but so did you and maybe worse.  You overshot then made a second pass in both cases by using a flat turn.  Clearly you don't understand the use of throttle, flaps or vertical rolls to maintain position on your opponents.  You got lucky that you truely did face inferior opponents.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.
