Air Combat Simulator Tactics and Maneuvers
by Richard G. Sheffield
The Rollaway
Situation: | The situation is the same as for the High Yo-Yo maneuver. This is a modified High Yo-Yo and will often yield better results, especially if you have a considerable speed advantage. |
Maneuver: | • Pull up the aircraft's nose to gain altitude (1). |
• Instead of turning in the same direction as your opponent, perform a Split-S in the opposite direction (2). | |
• Dive back toward your opponent (3). | |
• Level out and turn with the enemy. You should be in good firing position (4). |
Roll away from your opponent; then drop in behind him for a gun or missile shot.
