Don't just go truckin in against five times your number. Skirt around the edges and pick off the unwary. Fly deeper into their territory when the swarm converges and expects to catch you heading home. Enjoy the chat bar messages as they try to figure out where you are and where you will turn up next. Get some height and pounce on the slow ones who have travelling towards the front and still climbing for altitude. Watch your ammo and go for maiming shots rather than kills. Honestly, it's the most fun you can have.

As a server admin its no good but if you're just a player on the server and you go in with a "I'm probably not going to survive this so lets just go with it attitude" then yeah that can be interesting and perhaps entertaining.

One day I did get a whole line of guys chasing me... in one instance it was easily 7 or 8 fighters lined up behind. I was slightly faster so I was banking back and forth trying to get the whole lot of them to bunch up. I got 3 or 4 "kills" that way. Eventually they still got me

While playing Rise of Flight, I once travelled way across the lines in a creaky old Re-8. I suddenly realised I'd wandered into an area surrounded by enemy airfields and could see aircraft taking off from each. In the end I quickly side slipped and landed unseen in a small field and taxied up to a stand of trees, and waited until they'd passed. Was great fun to be able to get away with it.
