Been there, done that..... In a Spit though.

Havent managed to have the same amount of luck in a HMk1 yet.... FH is the best i done in that one.



Dichotomy, its all a matter of practice. Try upright first. If you feel comfy doing that, try inverted..... give it a few hundred tries, suddenly it will work and you wont know what you found so difficult about it at first.
Its a matter of knowing your planes dimensions, judging the distances and dimensions of hangar and fine control of your AC.

Schatzi... indeed... I'm practicing or flying at least 1.5 hours a day now after the little ones are down.  My beloved she devil and I made a deal about me playing (her suggestion).  If I'm only practicing alone I leave the earpiece that faces her chair off my ear so we can watermelon chat.  If I'm training or actually doing something in one of the arenas I tell her I'm going to when I get home and she leaves me alone.  Excellent avoidance of spouse ack.. but she's pretty cool anyway :)

I wish... she's so competative and smart if she got into it I think she'd enjoy it but it's a no go.  She has her makeup hobby and her msg boards she posts on.  She told me to get the vid card and play on the 36" Flat Screen but I'm afraid the motion sickness would cause her to leave the office and I like her next to me :D Although *and an idea jumps into my evil head* I might get her to jump in your plane on my account some night and you can show her whats up...

what's hotter than a female pilot?

nothing  :D

Nice pic

The other night, we took over a Bish base fairly quickly.  We had about 20 guys buzzing the field or going thru hangars.  

Wanting to be involved, I wanted to whisk thru one with my Ar234, RATO's blazing.

Sadly, I chose the one hangar that didnt have the doors open on the *other* side.

Pretty impressive to see a long smoke trail...then nothing.

Sure heard about that one for a few minutes ;)

LOL - man, first time i d/l Ah1, i loaded up the offline arena and spent a good 30 mins looking for AI enemy planes to shoot down :) back in those days we had the HTC crew circling the field as friendlies.


 


Pfft.  Do that in an A20, then I'll be in awe.

It's not up on the terrain download page.  It can be found up on the SEA typically if another event isn't running.

At times I am available to host a H2H and let it download, but that's rather infrequently.  If it's up for H2H download Ill post the name of the room Japan Download or something coded like that :)

When you guys changed the map and made everyone re-download it right before the beta test, that was fun.


Not really.
:aok

It's a fantastic map.
Love the air spawns.

Didn't realize people spent so much time just looking at the terrain. Glad y'all like Japan so much. When it is updated I'll have to put in some hidden goodies ;)
