lol.

Wow. That guy Holden is an anala retentive stump. He keeps talking about "practicing"
Practicing what? Flying another B17 in yet another "sim"? Give me a break. He has dreams of grandeur that one does.
He's like the mah roon who thought Farrah Fawcett was the ONE and ONLY. No super model before or after will ever measure up. Matter of fact he'll slam every thing and anything that even looks like the slightest threat to his 'babe'.

Now Jordi there, he is a nice guy. I've met him and I now he's ooking forward to that sim ALOT. I hope that the B17 II sim is all he is looking for and more. It would be a shame if the folks making that sim spent more time on hype and not enough in development. I've never seen a company tout itself and it's product more in my like. All I mean by that is it takes alot of manpower to pump out that much PR. Manpower not mispent I hope.

I am greatly expecting that Sim myself (as i said earlier, i lost quite a few hours on the 1st version...) and it does look pretty nice...

I don't think I'll fly something else than the Buff in there though, fighters just look like the cherry on the cake...at least I hope so (Meaning I hope that they payed more importance to the buff itself than the other planes...)

Now, i did realy appreciate "posting" something, just to help poeple out, and being plonked for it...nice community out there...

This is the same guy who put up a wall of text a few weeks ago... he also was arrogant and demanding in his posture. Not surprisingly he was quickly attacked (by none other than Smut). He got his feelings hurt and left.

He had some points that were correct, but unfortunately his overbearing nature caused him grief. I'm happy he's happy now, but when the other fellow says

Quote

"Chuck, in a spirit of genuine helpfulness, gave generously of his time in a volunteer effort to help beta the FM of the B17 in AH. (Which was alleged to be in OPEN beta testing)

His precise evaluations were ignored entirely, though I can vouch that I found the same results testing independently."

it isn't exactly true...

I have a word for poeple like that, it starts with a W but, I will remain polite and will not use it publicly...
