Somehow I couldn't resist to got into a turnfight. I'm maybe to quick temperd, I have no patience for boom 'n zoom tactics.
The annoying is that many (laic) people thinks that the Mustang was a superior dogfighter. It simply wasn't. Quite same fighter like Thunderbolts, as for air combat tactics - hit and run. The Soviet Yaks, they were maneuverables. Maybe most of the people aren't really clear with terminology, they mixing dogfight with air combat, etc.
