it has something to do with online play cause it works perfect on offline practice. I am starting to doubt its my joystick and starting to think its this game.

scratch that, now its totally haywire and even with the throttle off the plane goes off wherever it wants. I have no control over my plane. Only way I can stop it is by cutting the engine. this game has so many problems I am wondering if I should save my precious frustration for something else...

Why dont you drive to Best Buy, Compusa, or whatever computer store you have near you, and get a cheap non-Logitech joystick and try it out?
Also, how about reinstalling the game?
And last but not least, deselect the joystick as the controller, and try to use the mouse. If the plane flies fine with the mouse (as much of a pain as it is) it might just be something weird with the joystick.
Hope this freaking helps.  And in case you are wondering, the game is worth it once you overcome this hurdle.  
We all eagerly await the chance to freaking shoot your freaking plane down as soon as you can freaking control its freaking flight.

The only way you will get the message about not moving your stick so fast is when the output of your stick is moving too fast.  If your not touching the stick, it sounds like you have a harware problem.

You are correct when you started thinking that its the game.  It is.  You are playing an on-line game with hundreds of other players.  If you stick output is that eratic, then we would see your plane flopping around like a fish out of water.  

If you want to continue to use this stick, you may need to take some time adjusting each axis in the setup.  Turn down the sensitivity on the sliders, and increase the dampening until you do not get the message.  If you could sit and watch an experiance pilot play the game, you would notice they have very smooth stick movements, not jerky.  If your smooth enough with the movements, and you have some good hardware, you can increase sensitivity of the stick.

Another problem looks like anger management.  This game has a high learning curve.  It takes time to get your stick set up so you have good stable flight.  It take time to learn how to fly, then how to fight.  It takes time to learn each aircraft you fly and the aircraft you fight. You will be up against some of the best sim pilots in the world.  Your going to have to get some experince to do well here.  If you can't control your anger, this may not be the game for you.  If your up to the challenge, welcome to the unfriendly skies.

Yeah I think I am pretty much done with this game. Frankly, I dont think anyone thats not a complete tard in my position would say the same. My joystick works PERFECTLY with every other flight sim. There is no point in playing a combat sim where I cant use my joystick or the game decides its going to play basketball with my plane. I think its safe to say its the game, and that the game blows. Maybe some day in the future I would think of returning if whatever programer decides to make the game playable to people who DONT HAVE 25$ to go throw away on a joystick just to see if Aces High blows or not. Thanks for the attempted help of the Senoir staff and anyone else who tried.

I have to wonder if the stick was ever recalibrated inside AH?  That has caused me problems before.  The game is supposed to be playable with a mouse.   Ah well, AH isn't for everyone.

Nothing will dispel enthusiasm like a crummy joystick.
