They become about equal at said altitude, I wouldn't say that by losing speed advantage you're getting 'outperformed'. I agree with what Flanker35M says - you can get bnzd even up there if you're not careful and it boils down to CEM and trim (overall skill I would say). I really enjoy these kinds of flights, I guess larger bomber groups flying at 17000 also helped so well don ATAG! Yeah and you're right btw, you got involved with No.64 and No.501 Squadrons, there were two 110 escorting the bombers - nice view and good job. S!
