while were on the subject of the Good Old Days.
can anyone tell me what the first flight controlers were like?
did they suck bad or were they pretty good for what they were?
or was it kind of like using an atari stick?
what was your first stick?
im old enough to remeber atari but we never had a computer till 2000.

I remember pulling back to hard and taking off both wings :furious many many times .

Also with no "Combat Trim" was a pain to take off without Auto Takeoff , haha . My bud airsid came just after I did and he "tried" to take off a Chog 4 times before he uped . I also remember him "having to" drive a M16 to a enemy base when the first came out , lmao was almost 25 miles he had to drive .

If you took a Thiffie and opened the throttle wide open when you were sitting still , the plane would flip over also . Can you say Torgue was a major effect .

I like the way the map room was on the airbase , not the way we have it now .

I remember when the 110 was released, and within hours people learned 2 110's could kill and entire town in seconds, and a 3rd could capture the base.

flying NoE landgrabbing officially became a "sport" in AH.







before that laser-bombing in a lone B17 killing each and every strat on a field, no ord, 25% fuel, and what not could kill a fight faster than anything.
I don't know what to put here yet.

the current game is twice as good looking and probably twice as accurate as Aces1.... but us 'people' have really hit the ropes lately.

When a map reset there was usually 1 massive furball between each of the countries, my computer could handle 100 or so planes it one confined area....and it was better.

Skuzzy would log on to reset the map every week and get spammed with meaningless questions.

152 was perked
No sherman
One arena
No uncapturable bases
ghi would horde one side for the win. :D
