sondog vs skernsk

[sondog]

That was fun skernsk thanks.
The first duel was F6F skernsk won
The second one was Yak 9T I won
The third was Hurricane I skernsk won
The forth was P40B I won
The last was the Typhoone I won

My favorite match was the Hurricane I even though I lost. It was long and fun.

What sondog is not telling you is that he controlled that match.  I managed to get behind him with the Hellcat and missed on 2 good shots.  I finally got him in the scissors.

Match 2.  He had me in 2 turns!  I was still recovering from the shock of that and pointed the nose down for 'E' and the chance to make a break for it.  He was on me.  I was looking back to see where he was while still going hellbent for the deck ... I augered!

Match 3 was the Hurri I.  We turned for what seemed like forever.  I had him, then I didn't, he had me, then he didn't.  The match ended with sondog pulling a maneuver we will call the 'Jed'!  He stalled it in, but had he not had his gear out he may have been able to pull out.

Match 4.  P40.  Once again sondog was in control in 2 turns.  His fist hits on me were right in the cockpit.  He did not take more than a minute from the merge to the kill.

Match 5.  Typoon.  Mental note to self.  Do not duel in a hispano plane.  We had a fun fight, I could have tried for a few HO shots while yanking, but in the end, the boy wonder sent me to the tower without breaking a sweat.


You learned well young Jedi .... the force is with this one.

<S>

BTW, I challenged your dad, you may need to teach him some moves sondog.

Thanks Skernsk. He was quite happy to be able to duel you. The hardest part of it all was getting him to post an AAR.

I had a hard time watching him, yet at the same time it was a pleasure. I would go upstairs and try to disengage myself from it, but would always come back.  I missed part of some of the duels, but over all saw most of it. Since we fly together often, or duel each other I never get to stand behind and just watch.  I explained a couple things I thought he did wrong during the duel. When he won the 5th duel I was as excited as he was! LOL

From seeing sondog in my lap clutching the trigger, (age 4) as I flew the AC to flying on his own, rolling and diving the AC, to taking off on his own, landing on his own, straffing ack on his own then shooting down drones (when he was shooting down drones that is when he really took off into this game), uncle Wanker sends him his first and only joy stick, and finally about a year ago getting him his own online account, to now clearing my six, and holding his own against others in the Allied vs Axis arena or MA and winning his first duel, I am pretty happy.
