Retarded.  No way would I like this game to turn into the rediculousness of the likes of Evercrack etc etc...  Pay forem like the rest of us, with skill.  It's really not all that tough.  Just grow a pair, step out of that LA, grab a high ENY plane, and KILL!

Exactly Scrap, hell the lowly Hurri Mk1 can get you enough points to up a 262 in a little bit.  Plus you have the knowledge that you earned em :)

Plus would you really pay $300 for 1 262?  Thats plain nutzzz.

I piped up saying Id give 1$ USD for ea point. He was actually interested in selling me all his points. I told him to contact Hitec and get back to me.

Would this type of suggestion be absolute heresy among you pilots?


I have right at 13,000 perkies.....you talk to HT and I'll give you ever last one of em.....WHEN I GET MY CERTIFIED MONEY ORDER for 13k. Then I'll sell you everyone I make each month for the rest of your AH career. NO PROBLEM. :D

I have 35,000 perks you're welcome to buy for $35,000. Do you have the cash or a Paypal account? I don't take checks...

Curious if anyone has tried to sell their account on EBay? I know it’s been done with other online games.

Flight sim is not RPG. Perks dont make you stronger/faster/etc. Perks allow you to fly best planes but there is no matter what you fly if you can not fly. Skill only matter. You cannt buy or sell skill.
