The absolute stupidest death (and there have been many) I've suffered in AH.  I'm flying along in my !90D looking for bombers, after a few minutes one pops up on dar,  turn towards it and  find a lonely C47 at about 6K.  Easy pickings run through my mind as I dive down. He evades and I climb back up for another try, he evades again. I go into a climbing turn, he sees what I am doing and does the same. I let myself get sucked into a turn fight with a C47. After way too many turns I stall out and auger. Wish I had caught the pilots name but was too shocked at what had just happened.

If the C47 was found at 20k, it might be me. 

What is the troop life span again?
