I avoid dogfights but sometimes they happen beyond my control.

Remember how angry VC Sir was when i had suggested your P51 pilot should turn around and attack. He didn't realise that the comment was meant for the onboard pilot, not the ground based RC pilot. Could I have done a 4 hour glider flight (1-26) without the help of birds?

I know what you mean.  I always pause to watch when I see dozens of hawks circling and circling catching thermals effortlessly.
