True enough, but at the time, you have to do what you think is right. I usually climb and turn. I fly a Pitts and there are few things out there with the kind of acceleration and climb rate I've got so most of the time, even if we both do the same thing, it's not going to be a real problem.

In the Taylorcraft, however, it's a slightly different story. There I tended to do what made sense at the time.
