@DC338. It's not a bug. It's something Oleg put in the game based on his research. I agree it can be anoying but everyone has it so it's still a level playing field. It would be nice if he could have that effect when a plane get's within 50 yards. That gives the stalker enough time to seal the deal.

I once got bounced by my boss from 45 degrees above and behind, flying a Pilatus p-3 right as I turned baseleg. I was flying a Cessna 310 light twin. I only heard him as he passed by at about 50 yards. Never saw or heard him coming. He had the sense of humor to tell me to better check for traffic in the pattern!
