I remember my first online IL2 kill, it was a foggy day in deep winter (snow everywhere and the sun was low in the sky, so lots of glare too). Somehow I managed to get behind a plane and keep behind it long enough to really empty my guns into it, then it yanked up in front of me and disintegrated. I had to pull away sharply to avoid a collision and stalled and spinned! Luckily I managed to recover and saw another plane right in front of me. Flushed with success, I dove straight at it and...booom! I'd crashed into my shadow! So much for situational awareness!!!
