i'm not saying they all do.......

i generally get on around 9'ish eastern. i look for the low furballs. the last time i was in the lw. i cruised at 3k alt......saw a higher con(much higher) turned away to grab. came back at 12k or so. the cons were only a little higher, so i tried to fihgt em. i got popped. came back around 18k, and found them STILL higher than me. a LOT higher.

 rather than come in here and squeak about it, i just logged and went back to mw, where i can find fun fights below 10k.

 i don't fault anyone for it.....you wanna fly that hi, then by all means feel free............

<<S>>


ohh I get it, so this opne experience is why you implied there are lots of people flying that high in the LW. I understand now, thanks.  :)

For the record I was escorting, we intercepting 24k B24s. It was not successful b/c the 27k p51 showed up. The 24 was plinking frontline radars and being a general pain in the ass.

I dunno, suppose it could work both ways. Had a 27K fight in my 38 vs a 51B last night which went a good 4 minutes. That was amusing when he had to fall all that way to reach the ground.

 lol it is funny when ppl fall down that far :D

Films?   I dont get paid to play and provide "proof" for something that everyone except you realize.  
Just the word Rook invokes Hi-Alt fights well over 8k, certainly many times over 15-20k will you find 51's and luftwaffe planes hovering over a furball.  

Films?  :lol

*yawn* just what I thought.  all bluster and BS.  Still a nutbag, I see.  Like I said, I get all my kills 12k or below and almost all below 8k or so. So does most of everyone else. Less than 1% of fights occur over 15k.

Now that you resort to insults, its my turn.

 :rofl your kidding right?  1% of fights occur over 15K?  Do you tell your wife that your 2 inch's is really 8.   :rofl

Get a grip, you wouldn't know what your talking about anyway since you are so successful at lower alt, there are countless fliers that would not get caught below 10k and I engage many on a sortie that are well above 15k.  27k is not unheard of and more common than you may think, not a norm, but for you to claim 1% of fights occur over 15k is ridiculous, prove it.

Well, before you go to too much effort, I already have several tours worth of film that can show almost all fights occur below 8k.  As I've said, very few fights occur above 15k.

I'm with you though that it can be quickly disheartening to log in and find yourself in an area proliferated by high alt cons. It seems like it happens to me when I log in late at night. It's just not a common occurrence relative to overall fights in the MA. Maybe it's even more rare in the MW and that's why it appeals to you more.   :aok

Aww don't take the insults too seriously.   I've already asked you to show films of your claim that so many fights occur over 15k... your answer is what, to ask me to post films?  lol.. maybe you should follow your own council and get a grip.   :aok

Were people to care enough to spend a minute to post, they'd tell you the same thing I'm telling you:  almost all kills occur  below 15k.

Think about it: If I'm successful at getting kills below 10k, who am I killing? In other words, in order for me to get kills below 10k, there must be people there to kill.

Now, I get about 10 kills per hour, which is by no means exceptional but it's not on the low end either. Obviously there's plenty of targets below 10k.

I very rarely see a con above 12k anymore. 

Now, while we're at it,


Just the word Rook invokes Hi-Alt fights well over 8k,



Well, here's the problem with the above quote.  I have flown for every country for extended amounts of time, and honestly, I see more Bish in the nose bleed sections thatn I do Rooks.  Don't take offense to that (since I know you fly Bish only), but this is an observation I've made in my AH career.
