And Raider:
Collisions are (99.5% of the time) YOUR fault. Because of how AH is set up, the game you see is played on your computer, not a distant server (like, say, counterstrike uses). If you get rammed in AH, it's because you pulled up too late on a taget in front of you, or because your poor SA allowed another plane to hit you from behind.
And before you start arguing, you really need to do a search for "collisions" and read the discussions that seem to come up every 2 weeks or so. Since you apparently don't understand collisions, it makes you seem even more like a newb...no matter how long you've played.
