AHH There it is  
I have always wondered where you picked that 'Sisu' word  

For any of you non-Finnish people, 'Sisu' means a kind of stubborness, an attitude to not to give up.

Karnak, don't give up now

Interesting that the FW was heavily involved in the defence of finland.
There are no swastiklers on the aircraft in this game f4u. But there were b17s,p51s,spits etc.etc in real life that had them.
But I doubt there was a corsair with one so stick with that.
But I know what your saying..You hate. And that makes your stupid opinion ok. Thanks for sharing it.
You would have a boring game without people to hate that fly the planes you hate.

Other then the first line which was in response to this.
"About the Nazi aircraft thing. What I mean is not that people who fly them are Nazis, but that I can't separate what they were used to defend. "
My post was directed at F4DoA.
Statements have been made here by you and others that no matter the discaimer are intended to paint people that like german WWII aircraft as being sypathetic with the german goverenment of WW2.
I must protest. And I will.
Anybody that would not protest such nonsense is condoning it.

As I said Pongo, you have no idea what I'm talking about.

I tried with this statement to make myself clear:

 
Quote
About the Nazi aircraft thing. What I mean is not that people who fly them are Nazis, but that I can't separate what they were used to defend. I can't make it "just another fighter" in my mind. For what ever reason, I can do that with the Japanese aircraft. This is me personally. I have no problem with anybody flying German aircraft. My roommate prefers to fly the 109. I personally cannot be comfortable or enjoy the fight when I fly in a German aircraft. Thats just me. I was trying to explain why I won't fly the Fw190A-5.

But evidently you have your head so far up your "bleep" that you're suffering from oxogen deprivation and can't think.

I DO NOT THINK THAT PEOPLE WHO FLY GERMAN AIRCRAFT ARE IN ANY WAY PRO-NAZI

I AM NOT SUBLIMINALLY SUGGESTING THAT YOU ARE A NAZI IF YOU FLY A GERMAN AIRCRAFT

My roommate has no Facist leanings.

Got it?  All I was saying is that I don't like to fly German aircraft.  And you're calling me a Racist because of that?  You can fly whatever you want and I wont call you any names.  As soon as you start throwing lies and disinformation out there about me, I'll go for your throat.

Karnak, stay a bit, I fly everything, I die in everything, I've been called a dweeb, I've HO'd, I've vulched, I've camped spawn points BFD I really don't care it's for fun ya know?
F4UDOA correction meine herre, FW is a german
aircraft, it was built by germans, my grandpa was in the german army in WW2, he was not a Nazi, and anybody says different, well, you are entitled to your opinion, of course, I am entitled to kick you in the balls whenever we should meet.
If any of you really have a problem seperating a game from reality, I suggest you seek professional help before it becomes a REAL problem for you.

It was not just I that took a very negative meaning from your post, focus on me if you like.
I have reread your posts. Your discaimers are meaningless. You have offended me, sorry if you dont like me pointing that out to you.
As to your flying. You would be a waste of a spit XIV and you would never gain the points to fly it if it was a bonus aircraft. I would however and would take great pleasure in shooting you down a dozen times in one.
At 1.5 % accuracy I am amazed that you have shot down anything. With out hispanos you certainly would not have.

Karnak...

If anyone here relates to your comments I do .

I've flown for over 5 yrs, payed a reasonable share of dues and feel that I'm a reasonably competent stick. I'm also I died in the wool pure angles flier....so....my numbers do and will always suck unless I change my flying...why...simple...this game does a better job of mirroring real life than AW...If you flew in WW2 like I fly here...you died...PERIOD. The best example of all is Bob Hoover...arguably the greatest dogfighter of all time...who only flew one combat sortie (where he engaged) killed two planes and wounded a 3rd...then was nailed on a hi deflection snapshot by a 190 ace.

Sounds just like AH...

I love flying AH, and I'm learning to have fun with it again. But, I've realized it's up to me to determine what "fun" is for me.

The other thing to realize is alot of these "ubber drivers" are just amazing sticks. Don't just assume cause they drive a B&Zer that your losing cause your an angles flier. I consider myself a pretty decent 1 on 1 flier (not great but good) and some of these "B&Zer's" just frigging amaze me. Udie,hangtime,torque...list goes on and on...would be dangerous in a gooney if they let em fire their .45 out the window

Karnak,
For what's it worth, the overwhelming majority of the replies here were very supportive in nature.  Try to keep your focus on those, and not loose perspective.

Pongo is a good guy, so I'm not sure whats up with the posts, except that all of us do feel strong passions on certain subjects.

Also, if you fly Rook, the Musketeers will share some sky with ya.

Oh, and we have orders to shoot Swager on sight!...He just makes too much sense when he posts on the BBS!  Plus he flies wearing a pink tutu and matching tiara!

Karnak...

Have you worked with any of the trainers...or any other vets?

I'd be happy to spend some time in the TA with you (once it's back up) working on basic's.

I'd love to spend some time in the TA, but I haven't had much luck finding people there.

Thanks for the offers.
