yup falc sorry about that, read my previous message. VWE is in iraq and is probably logged on via satellite with a ping rate of 800+  work is busy for me right now so I'm getting home late and tired.  I did log on at midnight and was in the DA for about one half hour.  when I logged on TK went hunting for you guys but you all declined to come to the DA at that time.  I reckon maybe some other time might me better for you guys then.  

if any of you guys see me on just holler out and we can go.  I don't mind if it's not even numbers you guys can have a numerical advantage.  I don't care which JG54 guys are on if they want to join the duel they will or won't at their own discreation.

you may want to do your squad night in the AvA once or twice, you will almost surely catch us there on any given night.  this week's set up is spits and woobiecanes v 109s so you can have numerical as well as easymode ride advantage, you're going to need both.  see you soon I hope.

I  got a question, if your dueling someone, why would that other person unload ammo before he got to duel?

Trying to make the plane lighter.  If your aim is good, you do not need many rounds to fight the single, known opponent -- the rest is just deadweight.

My aim sucks, so I personally would never do this . . .

In some 109s you have lots and lots of little bb's.  If you are dueling you probably won't need 900 of 7.65mm, maybe 200 or so.  The idea is to drop weight and aid manueverability.

who did that ink?

for most of us who DA that would be considered cheating...it gives the lighter plane a maneuverability advantage assuming fuel, alt and plane have been agreed upon in advance...

so its not cool to do ..dont pick that up as a habit..another uncool thing is say you agree to merge at 5k...some guys will grab to 8k before vis and dive to 5k thus merging with extra E/speed and able to pull off a better first vertical move...not cool either...;)

i would rather not post who did it falc,but you are right i thought of it as cheating, he did something else that was totally weird, but i stupidly forgot to film, i cant even begin to explain what happened, but when it did happen, my wife got pi$$ed at me for yelling something like "what the f**k, how the hell did he do that? a plane cant..."
  i got 6 kids sleeping close by so yelling at 1am isn't good.
   on another note i think this game is by far the greatest game ever, {even with all the weird stuff going on in it.} never in all the years I've been playing video games, have i gotten adrenalin rushes. EVERY time i fly in AH within minutes adrenalin is pumpin.

Have you run into the BS ... engine on-off-on-off-crap  ... in a duel yet ?

Hi Jay

You know me, stirring up trouble and poking fun at the situation (yes, that includes some exaggeration ;))

Thanks, i'm ok at duelling, although i am an arena player not a dueller - I very rarely go to the DA.  It you want to learn to duel i suggest trying someone like SkyRock who has spent a substantial amount of his life in there ;) :D

Some clown named Triumph did that to me last night.  He literally had no idea why I felt that was gamey.  There are quake tards among us.

skyrock was the first that i went to DA with he was awesome and showed me how to properly set up my stick,i havnt been able to go up against him again, that would be cool to see how well {or worse} ive gotten.



i haven't seen anyone do that with the engine yet. i do that {turn engine off} only when my motor was hit and im trying to save it as long as i can
