Surviving a stall

[DuiBuQi]

Did you ever think Stalling was a good thing?

Probably not. Flying steady and level is pretty awesome. Twirling around in a spiral of death sucks. Unless you are twirling around at a higher altitude than your opponent.

Consider the situation where you are being pursued by a less powerful, opponent. If you've got the distance, and your opponent is less than skilled in the vertical battle, I suggest gun it to WEP and head straight up.

You'll notice that you bleed energy like a sucker. Your opponent will like what he sees because you're beginning to slow. What he doesn't realize is that his less powerful aircraft is going to stall quicker than yours. As he starts to stall theres nothing he can do now, but wait for the spin and try as he may to recover.

As he stalls take the opportunity to cut power and fall into a stall yourself. As you both come back out you'll have him in your sights at a very favorable speed and with limited manoueverability. Fill his cockpit with lead.
