I just resubscribed as "Lobster".  I have bad MS now unfortunately so flying is not easy!  AH is fun again though.  Good to see all you old-timers are still here.  Rip always had the best missions back in the day.  And Kirin, damn you used to kill me a lot, you flew 38s right?

Kirin was 190s if I recall correctly.

Those were the good old days :).

Thank you Ely, we had some fun times as Knights back in the day.  :devil We crashed the HTC servers a few times with 200 paratroopers in the air at the same time.  :devil

I think we should lobby HT for a senior citizens discount.

Alright. Spend a few nights up in the virtual skies flying 'toon planes (as they say nowadays) and enjoyed it tremendously. Met a few familiar faces like good ol' VoX and of course the Black Knights Bier-Drinkers. But where are all the 'others'??? Been scanning some old posts - and great they were...    :old:

So I officially open the dweeb-hunt (another old word I found) for following pilots:

Glassses, StSanta, NathBDP, Wilbuz, Vulcan, Hangtime, Blitz, (the unforgettable) Ram, Maik (which I know is lurking in the shadows somewhere) and many more from the pre-millenium ages!!   :rock

Reward open to negotiations!!!  :cheers:

Came by on a whim (in STO open beta), since I do that from time to time for old time's sake. Saw Kirin's post, then all the replies from others who I actually remember. There were some hot and bothersome times with some of you, but for the most part I remember those days as good ones.

I did actually try to come back last year, but it appears that Vista and AH don't do well. Or it could be my connect now. I don't know really. In any case, please take care of my baby, La-5FN.

And watch your 6, one and all :)

Poka!

Ah works great with vista now. I run it on Windows 7 and it is great.


I shoot down lots of LAs..... have not seen any with your name on them.  I think yours is now stuck on the end of a pole out front of the VA Hall.
