Heh, some excellent descriptions in this thread, but I'm kinda surprised noone has mentioned a hammerhead stall. A couple times, especially in CT, I've seen a few of the best sticks apparently do something like that.
When zooming up after the bandit in a loop, the bandit appears to suddenly twist back behind me. Not always able to get guns on me, but certainly frustrates my pursuit.
I'm thinking it must be some variation of the hammerhead because usually I retain more energy and am thus able to disengage far enough to return at an advantage -- IF I don't succumb to a deflective shot first.
The move seems more severe than the turn and loop some describe, and more planned than just a severe stall.
IF a hammerhead is agile enough to twist within a complete circle, seems it would be an ideal defense. Then again, I'm not even sure if real hammerheads are possible in AH. Are they?
Anybody seen or use this sort of defense manuever?
