After 2 or 3 repeats of this, he was much higher than me,.

How much lower? But above all what's your speed? Was he faster than you?
I asking this since when I engage an enemy at my altitude I'll pass 30m under him (without pointing his plane so that I can avoid stupid headons) and my objective is to build the required speed for an Immelmann turn since usually I'm climbing at low speed.
In that way usually I almost keep all my energy while most of my enemies will make a 180° flat turn, bleeding most of their energy.
From there if I'm in the better climber I can climb away easily.
Do you remember his and your initial manouvres?
