Braveheart,
I too fly a 9g aircraft, and have previously flown a 'bad turner'.
I 'drew it' like you said and find you 90 degrees short of being 'in your shorts for a mx kill'.
The best fighters in the world today turn at around 25 degrees per second. Even at my age, my head turns at around ten times that rate.
Words can be tasty. Get munchin' honey!

Nozzles,
Absolutely, a tad optimistic on my part (rapid back pedal). 270 from us and 135 from him makes it look better and instead of 'in shorts' read 'in with a chance'! Still, I can't see the HMD's advantage in this 2 circle scenario, except pre merge.
I too was a 'bad turner' previously and agree on head rate. That must have caused the initial over indulgence...
Just talkin' 1 v 1 here of course - unlikely I know.
