Fencer...

it been a loong time how the hell are you?, as for flying some of us try to everynow and then, Hitech & I still get each other killed a lot and hes is still the PUTZ that he allways was but other this is something we need to live with...


Hell as I am writing this, I just remembered something, back at the AW CON in Dayton... we are all in one of the rooms drinking & flying, and Hitech said somthing on the lines of hell, I can write a game like this....Look at where it gone to.


Anway Fencer open and account and give it a shot,
we may need to start an "Old Timer's" Squad.
HiTech is a DWEEB-PUTZ!
I have multiple personalities and none of them like you !!!

Great to see you made it by Fencer! I think Shaky and Grits summed things up really well. Their comments are bang on regarding the transitions from the old to the new.

I too have recently returned, and am quite enjoying it. Er, but I am stinking up the joint. We've been trying to convince B-man and Stil to come back as well. For me the motivation is entirely selfish...I need someone that sucks worse than me up there ;->.

Oh, and if you can manage to track down BB by all means give it a go. It would be really good to see him pop in here.

And greets to Booz as well! You ole Jug drive'n devil :)

Howdy, Brand new to Aces High. Great to see an active arena again!

I used to fly AW, Death from Above, Handle was Wildcat. I remember Mullah was my mentor, great pilot and trainer. I'm hopin' he's gotten a more PC handle at this point.;)

Anyways thanks for having me and don't shoot me from behind.

OK, so good so far. How about Twisted? Caligula? Fencer? Mullah?

moggy - what's Rocketman doing these days?

I flew a lot with Mullah. Back in about 89-92 time warp. He was nothing but a cool guy. I wonder if he still flies?

AW was also a Mac platform which was really nice at the time. I don't know if there's a Mac flying sim out there now.

I was pumped when I spent $600 bucks for my new, blazing fast 9600 baud modem trying to keep up with the flying Jones'. Things have changed.

I saw ya up the other night, and actually tried to hunt ya down for a bit, just to see if you sucked as bad as I do . Would be an interesting base for comparison:D

Well Heater that's a long story.  I quit AW because I got married and it was just not as much fun as it used to be.  (Sorry Booz but I too got drafted into running the squadron)  I also had problems with my hands.  Carpel tunnel.  Finally had surgery for that in April and May of 2003.  

Trouble is that I also had a condition called Congenital Spinal Stenosis.  To sum it up I was going paralyzed from the neck down slowly for years.  Things came to a head in June 2003 when my left leg went numb.  Had surgery for that in October 2003 and was off of work for 3 months in a neck brace living upstairs in our house unable to move much.  Fortunately the surgery was successful, although I still have the condition in my lower back as well.  Some days are better than others.  Can't turn my head much or look up but I can walk again without a cane.  Had this all my life, since birth hence the congenital, and looking back it explains quite a bit of weird things that happened or I felt over the years.

I will get an account soon.  Just having too much fun playing WoW for now.  Also, I am having problems programing my old CH stuff.  XP sucks.

NoBaddy! I can't seem to get an email reply to you, something about an invalid email address.  Send me that information you were telling me about.

Cheers,

Fencer

Howdy, Fencer and Lone Wolf!  I like it very much that more and more AW old timers are showing up.

By the way, some folks have asked about Mullah.  He is already here in Aces High and goes by the bulletin-board name "RDSaustinTX".

I corresponded with Blue Baron via e-mail about six months ago.  He wasn't all that interested yet in getting back into on-line flying.  Same goes for DeadDuck.

However, there are some others who said they'd show up once the next scenario begins.  We'll know soon if there is going to be one in September (starting maybe as soon as the 17th).  That might provide the leverage to get Moggy, Airmigan, and some others on-line.

XP and CH analog, gameport gear don't get along well in the least.  Take a peek at the forum link below for a possible solution for you.  My Pro throttle would not cooperate so it did not for me. Otherwise your other options are to program the CH gear on a PC still running Windows98 and then moving the whole shebang to your game PC.  Or configure a dual-boot (Win98 and XP) system on your game rig and just program in Win98 firstm then boot into XP.  Good luck

That could be a pretty entertaining fight. If you're gunnery is anything like mine we'd probably just run each other out of gas :)
