Are you a LaGG pilot?

I'm really enjoying the LaGG. It's certainly a challenge, but I have managed to shoot down four 109s a few times. You need a good height advantage and to avoid tight turns. Having tried to hit them in head-on passes every time, I now find that going in with a height advantage of 1,500m or so and then diving towards the EA but pulling up into a loop before they are in range seems to work. They try to climb to follow you and by the time you've got over the top they are wallowing around and you have a chance to dive on them. You generally have about two or three turns before your energy advantage evaporates into thin air, after which, climbing gently beneath the distant dot in the sky and then diving beneath them to low altitude when they dive on you gives you a chance.

Landing is becoming a bit less horrible as well.
