Just what was his alt when he began the roll?

How fast was he going?

You link shows absolutely nothing that relates to the difficulty of flying a P-38 either in RL or in the game.

Pilot errors in judgement alone have resulted in losses of everything from a Piper Cub to warbirds to jet fighters to a 747. The difficulty of flying the aircraft is pretty much immaterial in a lot of the cases.

Your link does prove one thing but that relates to you, not flying.

Is it anymore tasteless than posting  109/190 pilots or even Japanese pilots getting shotup and dying, is it anymore tasteless than watching cities burned to  the ground and citizens being incinerated?

Again it's being a hypocrite.

Again, you're saying much more about yourself than you are about the P-38 or AH.

When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

For me it wasn't what you posted as much as your comments. Old war footage is just as bad as what you posted but most of the time it's presented in a mature fashion. You basically made light of peoples deaths for what purpose?

An excruciatingly tasteless comment. In case you failed to understand, this is what gets up people's noses - at least it got up mine. It seems to me you have very little understanding of the difference between death and 'virtual death'. Get a grip kid.

Ah, The Drama.

Everyone nowdays is so touchy about everything in this ridiculous sense of 'moral' consciousness.

As far as I can see, Glasses is not making 'fun' of the situation, He just wanted to establish a simple point, which as I can see seems to be the 'difficulty' of flying a 'warbird'.

And as unfortunate as the incident was, it in fact, happened. Past tense. Many die every day, and it just is, death, natural.  Glasses is just taking the unfortunate event as an example to make a pretty simple point.

Just let it go, death happens. In this case it's being discussed by a stranger to indulge in an argument...

Godsakes... a freaking drama for everything.

Heh. I feel insulted for having being denied my existance. He's a friend yes. But I'm not him.

He suggested me to read the thread and give out my 2 cents. I used to play a long while ago. Cptjack was my callsign actually.

You have no point.

If you knew anything about the accident you'd know this was part of a very successful airshow routine. The guy probably flew his show a hundred times without incident. This time he made a fatal pilot error.

Again, it says NOTHING about the difficulty of flying a P-38.

But the whole thread says a lot about you.

I'll say it again, I don't rejoice in the death of a man or the loss of a plane. What you linked to was not war, it was an airshow. Show me anyone here who has rejoiced in the death of an air show pilot or the loss of a plane. Well, except for YOU.

I have no desire to cleanse anything, and as much of a piece of scum as you are, I surely have no desire to get close enough to you to cleanse anything. Oh, and by the way, it was a nice touch how you tried to drag family into this and sling the "Nazi" label.

Keep digging Glasses, I'm sure someone from HTC will be here soon enough, and they'll take care of you and your hole.
