I need some more ACM, and if someone has the time, Id like to go at it.
Look me up in the MA
Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

Start with megadud.  That way you can practice shooting planes from their six first.  He a good big slow target :D

yes ,  but it has a disavantage too ...  if you miss the shot ,,the other plane with more  vertical Energy will continue to climb up and when you stall they have you "Roped" .

Now to dueling ,, as far as I know the rules have always been . come in at agreed co-alt ... at icon range you can dive til you  merge with the oponent  (1000 feet or less normal distance at merge).  guns cold at merge ... after this its free to do what ever you can think of ..  

HO shots are ussually frowned upon,  the duel is better if you  saddle up.

No Im not talking DA, when I said Im shooting at 1k out, I mean the LA's. Just cant stand the HO. So now I shoot a little far out, and its usually enough to have em back away a little, or they die. Ireally dont give a crap anymore. trying to get into a good fight is tough.

No no no, I mean he sucks so bad that you can practice your gunnery on him first.  Unlike most people were you have to get on their 6, he gets on your 12 :D

Todd, where the heck have you been hiding out? I know, career, family and the like. Still, I miss the old days and the old guard...

Take care of yourself.

I don't think we ever had the chance to duel, but I enjoy many fights with 2bighorn (or whatever user name he goes by at the time). If you guys were the problem, you're also the solution. A fair and fun fight with no egos involved. The outcome is never as important as the camaraderie. That is always the best part IMHO. 2bighorn duels with relative noobs and compliments them on their effort, while offering advice. He builds pilots and the community.

He has long since proved that you don't need to be a Trainer or a CM to be a leader in the AH2 community.

As to the central debate of this thread, I happen to consider both Bodhi and Skyrock friends, which puts me in the position of hoping they iron out their issue and  realize that they are both good folks who just happen to disagree.

My regards,

Very true Widewing, as one of the relative noobs I have to second that - when 2bighorn says "nice flying there", you know you have performed mediocre... when he says "excellent" you know you are on the right track :)

I wish more vets with this kind of attitude would enter Training arena some more.
