Boom&Zoom ain't even fun no more

[Jumoschwanz]

Booming and zooming go hand in hand if you know what you are doing.

I was recently flying a 109E against a Yak1B in a series of "duels". The two aircraft were very equal in their ability to turn, but I found that if I straightened out and gained energy while the dipshit in the Yak kept turning, then I would gain E while he was not, and I could shoot up over him out of reach and come down for a nice shot.

The Yak pilot's reaction to this was to quit flying against me because I was smart enough to do something he was not. That is the poor attitude of those who cry about others tactics.

If you are just flying along and someone spots you on a hard settings server and zooms down on you, then you deserve that too because it is your choice to have your aircraft in any location. You can gain altitude in a safer area, fly under clouds or in other ways that make you hard to attack from above.

In the end "Black Sage" is just a bad pilot with a limited skill set that would rather cry about getting shot down than learning to do something about it.
