@skipplet those helmets have lots of wires and straps, so its a bit harder to to put on then gloves, and doing a preflight on a fighter jet is fairly hard to do with gloves on, a helmet however dosent make it very hard
It's the Snap Shot Drill, just a warm up at the beginning of the BFM hops. But generally you are maneuvering for a guns kill off of a neutral abeam or butterfly set, which starts high-aspect until you work the angles off.
Not necessiarily. The highest goal in WVR BFM is to arrive at 'dead six,' which is a LOW aspect angle. Based on the shots i'm seeing, it looks like he's trying to get a guns picture in repeated high-aspect passes.
LMFAO!!! Nice chop job... Seriously though, I like it - it's nice to see that some things never change (talking about over inflated opinions of cones here).

It's BFM, the goal is to be high aspect.

looks like you were mostly doing high-deflection gun shots, by the way, correct?
