> ... one major gripe/complaint about AH ...

I'm slightly embarrassed to admit I don't have any major gripes, so I'm just chiming in to <Salute!> HTC for a job well done ... even tho it's a work in progress.  Whenever I think I've got a major one, they fix it ... thanx, gang!

Exactly why I posted such a question, if we have one common thing that drives us nuts, now it's prioritzed for HTC.  

If, after all, these minor flaws are all we can come up with, then HTC doing a good job speaks for itself within this post

Im with hangT,

Absence of prop drag.

Also, if would be wonderful if people could adjust their Icon size and font to suite their own prefernce.

Minor?

The longer that HTC don't have a $1/hr price plan, the longer I don't spend $10-20 a month with them.

Wouldn't think I'm the only one neither.

Oh hell, give me an inch and I'll take a mile  

a)Lack of Force Feedback
b)Lack of prop drag
c)Long range gunnery
d)Hyper accurate acks
e)Hyper accurate bombing from high altitude
f)Flaps currently only increase drag at the moment, not lift (or so I believe)

But AH is still the best thing around by miles

 The snap shot HO ability of the spit. And more so the fact that noboady from HTC will give an explanation of why a plane with 2 20,s and 2 fiftys is so deadly in an HO.

Cannon, 2 20mm cannon are PLENTY of firepower for a HO or any other attack.(and the MG's are .30 caliber, not .50) Just be happy there is no Spit XIV

Spit IX's can load 2x20mm and 2x.50's, as well as 2x20mm and 4x.303's.

To answer yeager:

I'd only be flying in the weekend as I need to fly in my afternoons to coincide with big enough arena numbers during the US evening.

So even if I was to manage to log 15 hours in a month, that's $2/hr, and I can do that with Warbirds which also has the added bonus of flying at a time when Mrs Glars is watching TV or asleep  

But if AH offered $1/hr then I could hop in the arena for an hour and HTC would receive a dollar.

I know AH has picked up Warbirds pilots who were logging long hours because naturally $29.95 is a good deal to them when they're flying several hours a night but I just wonder if HTC is ignoring the people at the other end of the scale - those who can't fly as often and so don't signup because $29.95 is too much for the hours they'd spend in the arena.

Hope that makes more sense.
