 BTW, when I first started in AH, runways craters affected takeoff/landing.

Interesting timing on this thread.

Someone mentioned "FA Korea" in another thread a while back.  I had no idea what this was referring to so I did some creative google hunting that eventually led me to the Fighter Ace website.

I have to say that the whole Korea thing "sounded" very cool.  I'd like to see Korea even worse than WW1 in an online flight sim.  So, I browsed the site some, went to the forums...and that was enough.  Their general discussion forum had like 2 posts a month.  I thought, "wow, real active community you guys have here".

Somehow I figured the game wasn't really a competitor to Aces High.  Seems like I called it right.

I'd still love to fly a MiG-15 around though.   :airplane:

Numbers usually show interest in anything. If someone really likes an era they would fly in most any arena that had those aircraft.

WWII is a popular era for aircraft.... others... not so much.

Former Fighter Ace guy here to...back in the late 90's. Was in a squad....Pshyco for a CO and I didn't last that long.

Came over to AHI after that and haven't been back to FA since.

Bout the best part of the FA place back when I flew was the furball areas. Cadet / Major room was always a blast. I had to go to another room and crash 100 planes one night to lose my general rank so I could go back in there. If ya made general they would tell you to leave the room. Was funny. Go to the empty room...crash a 100 times back to major...back in the room and rack up kills. Make genral again. Rinse and repeat.

AW had something similiar with the Newbie arena.  After you hit 10,000 points, guns were disabled on any plane you took off in and all you could do is fly around and be a target.

Wow that is a really, really bad idea.
