Damn I miss flying tail G for BNZ...those were the days...

What happened to RDog?

I ended up flying with Manx as his right hand after my stint with the RB's, which of course made me a traitor cuz I had to join the evil B's

I haven't flow since the AW days and have sought to try and re-capture some of that magic from time to time and as of late decided to try out AH2...

I just loaded it up on a new rig I built and man o man am I rusty...

If you want to put something together I will be more than happy to join you.

Lets fly some bomber missions...I love gunning on bombers as well as flying spits and 'stangs...

Great to see somebody here from one of my old squads...

OMG ^1Way & ^Crsh.  Long long time guys!  Whatever happened to ^Morg?  Back in 96 I was in "The Intruders" and we would constantly tangle back and forth to strat targets with the Barons.  I remember when Heat and Scree would bust their tails each campaign for top buffer.  Man those were the days or nights with 10 or so drunks in 17's.

All the Best...

Like I said, I didn't think I'd ever hear from any of the old squad.  I don't know what happened to any of them.  It would be fun to run into ^Lion, ^Eagl76, ^Peye and many of the others.  What ever happened to TCat9?  He was one of my favorite opponents  Man, those were the days.

After reading 1Way's post I was thinking about the missions we used to plan.  We'd send buffs off in every direction to take out all the strat targets in a country so when we flattened the field we were going for it would stay down for a while.  Meanwhile we had fighters flying off to every surrounding field pinning down the enemy plus flying escort with our buffs.  Of course, that was before you could actually capture fields.  You just don't see missions like that anymore but with almost 60 Red Barons we had the numbers to run those sorts of missions.  I used to spend a week planning those lol.

Great to hear from both of you.  Brings back good memories

Don't know how many of you were into the scenarios that went on in AW3, but does anyone remember Operation Longbow?

I used to have a ton of pictures from it but over time i have lost them.

yassir Ho ... the level of competition in the Arena's is everything AW was

Ground war is fun ..taken a lot further than anything AW ever had

Flight dynamics are comin into line with the old AW 'feel' .. not nearly as bouncy as the early days here and in WB .. trim is still required to shoot straight, and there are stick stirrers who will point the nose of the plane up to 60 degrees off flight path to blast yas in a pray and spray move.

Kinda funny that a lot push for the head on . . or think BnZ is run 2 sectors then come back .. -evil grin- .. can grab nana's purty easy sometimes

Then again .. lotta great fights ..real 'white knuckle' into the tree tops action from 30k an such.

The Scenarios rock .. much more realistic IMHO than AW due to all the toys the designer can play with.

I haven't been on in awhile .. cancelled my acct an such .. gettin into spendin my time at the race track, or cruisin, or plannin what mayhem to commit on the Vette next . . I am captured by the black bullet.. its an excellent automobile

Hello, Cody!  Ah, Longbow.  You might want to take a look at:

You might appear in some of the screen shots in the pictorials -- lots of pics there.

Thank you brooke for posting that, brings back a lot of memories.  I recognized a lot of names in there and am willing to bet that i flew past you a few times.  I can remember mostly about flying a P51 during a couple of frames of Part 3, was very exciting and very long flights.  Anyway, thanks for the pics.

wow, just happened across this thread while thinking about the old AOL AW days. Good to see so many familiar faces here. The first squad I flew with was =Serial Killaz=, transitioning through the Starknights, co-founding the 51st Krewsaderz, (a few more squads in here i can't remember) and ending up with the SOG in MV.

Keep em flying

[Hunter51]

Yep, I flew in the old Air warrior, Callsign then and now Hunter51. Started out out back when it was on Prodigy. Was offline for about 3 years. ust started back.

Cool thread.  

I started with AW SVGA on GEniE, CRIS and Delphi (always looking for the best deal    $6.00/per hour???  hell yeah, sign me up! ) And then moved to AOL and Gamestorm.  

GE (Grey Eagle) got me hooked up with The Damned in '96 and I flew with them there until the bitter end in 2001.  It wasn't too traumatic since I'd been flying AH since beta, but still sad and I lost some of my "zeal" for flight simming as a result.

AH is what I'd always hoped AW would be.  I love it.

He's in my squad.  He still flies AH, though his work has been keeping him busy, and he usually only flies 3-15 hours per month.

hehe Hiya shak, not to correct you about your own squad, but it was 81st there bud

Wasn't Aimer the other co-founder? Don't remember who it was, almost positive it was Aimer. They're still around too.. lot of new faces since AW, but they're here just the same.

[ss396]

I was ss396 on AOL and GS..RRE2, usually a CZ, sometimes a Bz..i remember Manx, Loumn, SKT, Gunr, Shep, Meak,  and some others..flying as 396ss on AH now.
Last squad I was in was the 86th Eliminators, i think Vet was the leader.

Amazing how time "flies"

Nah thats ok. Goes to show you how long its been since I've played. I should have remembered that it was the 81st. Yeah, Aimer was the other co-founder. We both started the 81st after leaving the Starknights.

Mostly these days I'm hanging around the Ubizoo playing IL2, but maybe I'll see you guys in the sky soon enough. Im getting that hankering again.

Is that clown DOODY still flying?

[trwagner1]

Count me in on this one.  I played and then didn't for several years.  When I found AH I didn't know the background...

One of the coolest features of AW and then AH is the ability to start engines independently...I've always loved that.

I will say that tail gunning in AW was a lot easier than in AH.

Hey, I was curious if anyone here is an old hand from the AirWarrior-AirWarrior 3D days? I was hoping someone with a sense of nostalgia would revive AW3 some day, but I don't think it will happen. I would like to get in touch with some people from the old days if there are any in here and possibly start flying again. So if you used to play AW3 please reply and let me know your old AW cpid and squadron.

Thanks
