| | pincers, scissors | Explanation:
"pincers" es cuando entre dos aviones atacantes arrinconan al defensor. Imagina dos aviones frente a frente con un tercero, los dos atacantes se abren a babor y estribor del defensor, y luego viran (las estelas se ven como una pinza alrededor del defensor, de ahí el nombre)
"scissors" son una serie de "breaks" (virajes) violentos hacia babor y estribor, del avión atacante con el fin de disminuir velocidad y evitar sobrepasar al avión defensor, o del avión defensor para romper la puntería del avión atacante.
