Slow down to 100 mph, as the stall buzzer goes off, use your flaps to bring the nose up. And just glide right in.  :aok

IMO it's easier to land without gear.

Oh flak, still mad about that 1 shot with a 20mm I put in your P-38 cockpit that you complained to me about? :rofl :neener:

Maybe I should be concerned with how you got that 20mm into my cockpit.. because that HO could do it  :salute I agree... im out before I get myself into trouble on this dead end, nobb infested subject.
 :cheers: FlakBait, out.

absolutely no more than six and a half miles per hour, and only if then land in the camp swimming pool or in the flower bed

Furthermore, if you choose to land in the flower bed, see the adjutant regarding donations to the camp botany and horticulture fund. :aok

What bugs and errors?
That you can't crash into the floor at 200 mph without being dead?

Can you hear the grinding noises of undercarriage at approaching 200 mph? they are about to tear of. Imagine what;s gonna happen if they touch something denser than air? Such as... er the floor


You have to realize the kind of player THRASH99 is, he's the type that wants the Spitfire perked because he can't fight against one, thinks the P-51H should be in the game because "it saw more combat in WW2 than the Spitfire 16 did".  Even after many have explained to him why tanks can't mow down trees in the game and how it's not a bug but rather how certain objects are treated by the game engine, he still insists its a bug.

His problem is he's trying to argue points that are born out of ignorance.

Plus, Spit 16 is really not that hard to fight against, best way to fight them is to get them really low and slow, you do that and they pretty much will do the rest of the show for you. Spit 16 is pretty horrible in a stall at low alt, controls move rapidly, plane out of control, etc. The only reason that they never stall out is because most of the pilots who fly them always have an alt advantage, so they don't have to worry about stalling and/or crashing. The reason I complain about it is because you really don't need it, why would you need it?  It is way too easy of a fighter to be in the game.

And what does this have to do with your original 'bug' about not being able to land without gear at 125mph?

I already offered him a chance to go the DA with me in a previous thread and all he did was make excuses as to why he wouldn't meet me.  Bronk said it best when he said to THRASH99, "kingcobradude has more backbone..."

As I said in my last post in this thread, THRASH99 is just the type of player that blames his lack of skill and understanding of how the game works on the game itself.  MY TANK HIT A TREE...WHAAAAAAA!!! IT'S A BUG!!!  I GOT SHOT DOWN BY A 2 WEEK SQUEAKER IN A SPIT 16...WHAAAA!!!! PERK THE SPIT 16!!!!  It's never his fault, it's always the game that messed up.

If THRASH99 would spend even one minute in learning about the planes in this game and the mechanics of how this game works, it would eliminate the need for 99.999% of his posts.

What excuses??!, that's just bull coming out of your mouth there, I said watch you not show since most people don't. I didn't see you post any offer/chance for DA on any post. Bronk said that to someone else when king was talking about his B-25H against you, maybe your the one that needs to learn to look

 <snip> If you think that your so good, then why don't I ever see you in the KOTH tournaments with the so called "skill" you have? <snip>


Let's leave KOTH out of this. I host one of them and to my knowledge there is no requirement for the better pilots in Aces High to have to show up and attend the event. Yes a few of our KOTHers are highly skilled in Aces High but other pilots do not like KOTH for various reasons. Some do not like the all fly the same plane requirement, others cant attend because of scheduling. I'm sure some do not attend, at least Fryday's event' because of the host.

I'd say your logic that AKAK should attend KOTH because he thinks he's so good is quite flawed. You ask many players about his skills and I'd bet a year of Aces High dues that most would rank him close to the top, with 1 qualification, and that being he is flying the P-38.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

Not if you do it on the grass...120mph on some airframes is "floating"....

you have a point here... doint pretty much anything on grass is pretty much "floating" to me.
