How many authentic circa 1940's posters feature jet airliners on them with satellite type views of weather?

Its current.  There's one in my Squadron building and a quick search of the MOD site found the appropriate one.

Actually when Im in a bad mood. Or I should say pissed off I often fly better and take it out on people in the MA.

Kinda weird too is I often fly real well when Im in a real good mood too. One extreme to another

But Im noticing that when things are weighing on my mind Im not flying nearly as well And I cant seem to do anything right on a consistant basis.
Normally I like to play as it takes my mind off of things that may be bothering me.  And if something is. I get to take it out on someone else

I go through hot and cold streaks like most other people. but this seems to be beyond that.

Just weird

LOL I hate spits. but evryone here knows that already.

Naaa I dont drink when I play. Other then maybe a glass of wine or a beer.
Most of my intake is coffee.

I rarely ever get drunk anyway Cept on rare occasion.
clouds the judgement and I dont like the feeling of sobering up LOL

Im not a nasty drunk unless I drink Scotch, At which point I'd probably pick a fight with a group of pissed off Green Berets.
Fortunately for everyone I dont drink scotch

We've had our share of VOX200 "duels" and I know it's all in fun, I hope anyway lol.   Whatever is going on on your personal life hopefully will take care of itself and I hope it gets better for you.  We all sincerily hope to see you back in top form in your 109-F4.   You do some amazing stuff in that plane and I strive to fly it like you do.  

On another note, I see your from NJ, which is where I grew up too.  
Jackson NJ,  Exit 7A on the Turnpike lol.  

See you in the skies, hope things get in order soon.

I most certainly do have bad days.
You killed me last night didnt you? ;)

V200 chatter doesnt bother me. Never has since my days in AW.
There was one guy there who just knew how to get my goat.
After gettig in trouble with the MODs after a loss of temper I learned not to let that stuff bother me.

Dont take me too seriously when I rant. Some may be just heat of the moment. But mostly its just to bust chops
Just ask your "master" LMAO


TY for the fine compliment. I do try. Actually alot of what I learned of how to fly the 109F I learned by fighting against 42.
But my overall strategy is pretty simple.
When at a disadvantage
Try to use my opponents strength against him
Figure out where it is they want to go and then try to get my nose pointed in that direction first

Another fellow Joiseyan.

Im in South Brunswick. Exit 8-a on the Turnpike and about 20 min in.
But it takes 20 min to get just about anywhere in So Brunswick.
Unless your going local. There is no "easy" way to get there from here LOL

When I'm angry in real life, usually about a bad day at work I fight more vigorously, I really, really want to kill watermelon and get more aggressive, the killer instinct comes out, although I also die alot more in the process.

When I'm sad or depressed, usually because of family probs, I fly worse because I just don't care that much and am not putting forth my usual effort, flying only to distract myself from some issue that has me bummed out.

When I'm happy or in a good mood I fight in a smooth analytical way, putting forth the effort to keep my SA up, fighting aggressively but situationally, that's my normal mode and usually the most fun for me.
