in AW. I started with AW on AOL

Flew with the Iron Dogs, and later had a short stint with "the Grey Ghosts" and eventually ended up with "The 352 Pale Riders"

Handle I started with and stayed with for a while was the game issued "qg123" ( just never botherd to change it)

Then for a good while I was known as "PORNO" till they said I couldnt have it any longer reason that was given me was someone called and whined about it because their kid wanted to know what PORNO ment and they didnt think they should have to explain it to them. (lmao if not the parent to explain it then who?)

Anyway. thats when I switched to probably my most known handle of
"/IT\" Which is still the handle I would prefer but when I joined up here they wouldnt let me have it and to get it now would mean either opening a new account which I plan on doing in the future so my son and I can fly together or loosing all my perks and such in this one.

Squads I most remember seeing in AW are AOS (Ace of Spades)
"Widow Makers" and the "MOTS" (lmao)

There is a free environment called "dosbox" that I've used. It's a DOS emulator. Details are here:

Hah.....Howdy ZENMS....from an old Sea Serpent. Still a few of us around (Frwy, Ranger66, Liaka) we merged with the Nazgul when AW died out.

Edit: Smaug and Hg were here for a few months but have since left.

I remember Flossy, Culero, Spiffy and I, among a few others spending a great deal of time searching players privs and removing them instead of flying the last day If memory serves lol

Oh yea. That was entertainment. Ill never forget a particular loud whine when kelly blacklisted them for tampering with the MA.

I think my AW number back in 93 was 3486, my handle was Jager. I was in JG3 with Drum for a bit before I had to quit. Then my first day in Warbirds I run into Drum, and his new squad JG51. I finnally made it to AH in 2001. Flying these planes on-line has always been a blast no matter what the sim. They just keep getting better. Too bad my eyesight, and hand eye coordination doesn't upgrade too.

Ah yes. Jager. I remember you:) Always protecting Drum

Lots of good 109 knife fights I must say.

-Hardock (official Drum hunter)

For the competiton. I did like him:)
