I think the better question is: How many of you have fallen off your peak and can't be bothered climbing back up?

I peaked at about the second or third campaign of the original Air Warrior version 1.0 (23 years ago) and it's been downhill ever since.

Probably tour 82 or 83. I could probably do that well again, but I dont take the game as seriously anymore.

One man's peak is another man's mole hill ;)

But I reached my personal "peak" between Tour 90-100. Up to that point, I constantly improved, since then, I'm in gradual decline.

my best performance was 1 bottle of 7 crown, 1 2 little of 7 up and lots of ice and about 30 cheladas.  it got me ranked in the top 55 this tour. my gf is back so next tour i wont be able to drink  :furious, so I'll prolly make the top 1000 like the past 4 years  :uhoh.

If that is true than you're flying with the wrong people.. and as far as I had to go to run down your p47 the other night you're flying with the wrong attitude.. 8)

I used to be pretty good.. Now I don't play enough to stay in top shape.

To really excel it takes practice, time, dedicaton, and focus.. Just like any art form, air combat is no exception..
