Any chance the author will step forward and repost,
or perhaps, release it to the public domain?

Heh.  Good find for the AvA.  Thanks!:

 Days of RPS

And the plea went out across the rolling landscape that the dweebs doth
live in. Oh Lord sayeth the dweebs, Although thou art good to us in our
dweebishness, we need variety so the foul runstangs and butcherbirds
will be not the only avengers in the air. And the lord IEN saw that
this was indeed a worthy request from the dweebs below. Forty days (and
two weeks) did the gods toil and then the heavens parted (yet again).
Know this oh you dweebs below, I have come forth to give thee what thy
asketh for. It shall be called a "Rolling Planeset" that thy can no
longer use the mighty runstang the entire war. In order to aspire to
the lofty height thou wantest, you must first master the earlier
models. Then did the lord IEN givest the dweebs the sacred list into
which was inscribed the sacred periods of Testing called a "Tour". And
lo, the list prescribed whatest the dweebs could use and when. And the
list was long and detailed. No longer could the mighty prevail the
entire war. Many steeds must a dweeb use and many various airplane
parts would be strewn across the land before the dweebs ever set eyes
on Dora the Beguiler. First thy had to survive in the dangerous, yet
fragile Zeke. And perhaps yet court the dangers of the Iron Dog for
mighty is his bite, yet not the most agile is he. For a time, the dweeb
must first master the Gnat, yes the fast and mighty turner. But only
those who do not stress thy wings and test thy structual limits will
survive this test. And then thou movest to the newcomer from the East,
the Yak whose engine dost revolve in the wrong direction and many will
a dweeb fall that forgets the torqueth goes the other way too! And
perhaps the dweeb will test the Lawndart, yea the proud Kittyhawk that
falleth at a mighty pace. And perhaps if they wantest, they may partake
of the trial of "no six view", the Peril of the Dweeb-cat whose
all-around performance is among the mighty, yet treacherous is it.

Yeah, I know...  ;)

This animated hyperbole was so well produced, with the introduction music and all... I just miss it.  It captured the essence of the vulch perfectly!~  :aok

I think the piece was already old when it was posted here in 2000.  When new virtual pilots asked "What's vulching?"  This short cartoon was the definitive example.

BTW:  Hi everyone!~  I'm new in the AH community, but been around in WarBirds as "topjmy" or "--top-" for a few years.  So 'Howdy!~' to all my old pals who found your ways here ahead of me, and Hiya new pals. :D

I'm flying online as "Vexation"
