Just one issue there.We both like kraut stuff.I would love to fly head to head with ya if ya fly the damned allied stuff :) Just never see much a2a stuff in AVA.
 And I never said AVA didnt offer any good fights.Just they were hard to find.

there are plenty of fights if you are an allied player lesser if you are axis, so there I would agree with you.  however with a little forethought and some planning as an axis player it is still possible to find the odd fight or two.  this is my suggestion, you must be;
1. alone
2. no higher than 300 feet agl
3. near their fully functioning ack
4. preferably between a port ack and the fleet ack
5. seem to be wandering around afk
6. in a goon

if you manage to meet all of these prerequisites then five or six intrepid allied players will surely accomodate you with a fight, otherwise you are on your own.

Smells like whine. Damned Vichy Frenchmen. No wonder the only other insult they seem to know focuses on "elderberries."

I mean ... does none of this seem remotely familiar to you? It's right out of the history books!

You misquoted me for one.  That was actually Storch's post except for the caveat that I added.

Secondly, why are you still here.  Didn't you quit or give up on the Ava or something like that?    :noid

Edit:
Besides, you're using coconuts!

That's why the quote had "Quote from: storch on Yesterday at 06:47:57" although I didn't highlight where his ended and yours took over. I'd bet most could figure that out if they tried, including you.  :aok

Secondly I never said I gave up on the AvA. That's Storch when his estrogen buildup counteracts his testoterone injections. VF-17 doesn't live here. I don't live here. Nice place to visit but I wouldn't wanna live here. But my squadron still has some presence ... even under the appropriate guises. I understand you're confused but it's not really my fault. If you want sympathy I can fake it if you reimburse me.  :D

Appologies  if I repeat a debate already had.

I was flying the Boston in  the BoB set up last night and was able to mess about to some extent dog fighting in it. It is after all the fastest bird in this arena.

Perhaps you could push it back into its bombing role (a little more) by only making it only available from the English main land. I believe it was even available off a CV.

It was. It does. In this setup it's adequate in the role of divebomber .... and somewhat adequate as a dogfighter if there's another friendly near (under *my* rusty control). Someone decent at CV ops, under the current setting, could even land as well as take off from CVs but the birdfarm won't rearm formations (one good thing).
