In short, I hit my peak probably about 1 year after Aces High Started.

Nowdays on a good week I get to land a 3 kill sortie, and thats ok.

Most of the time I prefer to spend in the TA teaching to flying in the main.

However fri night Squad ops still manages sometimes to bring out the best in me.  :)

In some respects I'm way better than I ever thought I'd be.
In others I never did get as far up as I would have liked.
But then family, real life and health issues will do that to you.

Call me happy with where I am as long as I can land a good sortie once or twice a tour.


you summed it up very nicely Ghosth......I have found myself having more fun in the AvsA these days rather than flying in the MA.......unless I am flying with my Damned squaddies...... FSO's are a hoot when I find time to make them......as well as KOTHs......

I never thought of myself as very good or great, but I sometimes have a shining gleam of luck every now and then every once in a blue moon ;)
"When one considers just what they should say to a new pilot who is logging in Aces High, the mind becomes confused in the complex maze of info it is necessary for the new player to know. All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC
