    Ya know I cant hit a barn door with a brick...

    well let me assure you.....

    its a world worse at over 700 kph going head to head with 2 Spits.....

    I've had 3 practice runs against Veteran Spit's......now lets make this clear....they got NO WHERE near.......no where near at all......

    BUT...nor did I

    I have now set Convergance out to.....wait for it...




    wait......





    *sharp intake of breath*




    wait.....




    600 metres...

    God help you all....I'm BOUND to collide with one or more of you at these speeds


    Thanks Skii.......you're the man

    Blimey lads thats not close!!!!!!!!! Mine are between 100m and MAX 280 depending on what I flying and what the target is, DF servers its down to 120 to 150 and in VEF its higher as DFs tend to be less protracted and you often dont have chance to close in nice and tight.

    Yes its a disadvantage for those long range shots but tbh I rarely if ever bother now adays, but where it scores well are those crossing shots when following a scissoring plane or attacking head to head

    lol I like to keep my distance Dak

    Did you know the AI are programmed to do evasive manouvers based on your convergance range ?

    Seriously its true.

    Set your convergance to 50m and then try sneaking up on an AI plane, you'll get much closer

    Seriously tho.....I'm going all out to avoid what Icant do.....TnB is over.

    I'll dropinto the odd I153 to keep my eye in and my pants full BUT As soon as I get a chance......I'm in the dropping stone brigade.

    My target is to be a 190 and P47 and P51 jock
