I was eating a candy cane and sneezed. I can't get the sticky specks off my screen so now I use them as aids. Is this cheating?

most of the updated planes do not allow head up beyond the gunsite level, so lets see what happens as the rest are upgraded.

Standing up, I can spin my head, shoulders and waist round 180 so my feet and nose are pointing opposite directions. Maybe thats just one of the joys of not reaching 30 yet.

Careful where you do that trick..y'all might nor reach "30"  :P

I do set my gun site as high as i can and still see the center dot. I tried the cursor thing and found it to be a huge disadvantage for seeing out the top of the plane window. especially in the 109. I,d cut that bar out if I could.

Basically its not worth the drawbacks if you ask me. In some planes i set the gunsight lower than default for a better view past window obstructions.

S all

the way i treat myself and the stress of being in love with a devil woman from satan's bowls should do more to stop me than mild yoga, but i will keep the advice of those older and wiser than me close at hand for the future. thanks den :D

I have learned, to set my cursor, on piper hit H-key freezing the cursor, then I set my views as high as I can, and I know with out question that my cursor, is now my piper, it has helped a little with my aim, but only marginally.

what is your opinion of this? did you realize this was possible? or am I finding out about something that every one knows?

I  thought about it one day and was thinking if no one else knows about this I may be a "cheater" and seriously, I hate "cheaters" to me they are the same as Liars and thief's, so I feel obligated to put it out there to let every one know about it,to use or lose it, to condone or condemn me.
