    Hogrider - the merge we were working on

    heres a VERY crude drawing of how a succesful merge goes

    its basicaly a turn that you might find yourself in with a typical spitfire where your wings are pointed towards the ground. now take that and level your plane out. now you are trying to turn under me.

    look foward to working on it more and other techniques <S>

    Easy counter, do a flat merge, and loop over them when they come down to get you.

    I was just trying to teach him how to do a basic merge. then we will move from there.

    easy counter to that is to hold high over them so they will turn. if they come up drop flaps and throttle and easy game

    An Easy counter to that is to level out, build up E, turn back in, and repeat the pull up/loop over process... pretty much make them do the work. Or you can take your chances and give them a knife edge, and you'll have a shot when they pass by.

    Just offering my personal opinionated advice, incase you guys ever TA or DA sometime, I'd like to go.
