Ace of the Base: Erich Hartmann

Hi,

Found this web page doing a Google search of "yoke+Aces High" as I am interested how a CH Products yoke is utilized in Aces High.  A very interesting sortie account follows:

Just wow.

"The German pilot points at his tail, obviously meaning the "200" victories, and then very slowly and dramatically makes a knife cutting motion across his throat, and points at me. He's telling me in sign language that I'm going to be his 201 kill!"

Nice creative writing.
