aimmaintenance, your the 2nd worst pilot in the nation , I would have to be the worst. lol Yes, it was a true rush to get in there and mix it up. Thats just the thing, I wasnt afraid to get too close to a plane and tried to zoom and boom right thru the furball several times, but I guess I just wasnt close enough?
Combatpig, agreed, it sure added some hot sauce to a plain peanut butter and jelly samich
Thanks guys, Im going to keep after it. Our next combat meet will be held in October I think, and you can bet Im gonna practice between now and then.
Ive flown warbirds, a big christen eagle bipe, all kinds of 40-60 size planes, but these combat sessions are something to remember,, I LIKES IT!!
I placed 6 out of 7, and I DID get a tee-shirt, lol
Thanks for your replies gents,
John
