99% of the ACM's as some of you call it would never be possible in real life.

99%?  Tell me which one's aren't real; turning? climbing? rolling? diving? climbing while turning? diving while turning? rolling while diving?...  really.  99%?
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

can i tell you?  :D  i know you've seen stuff that would not be possible in a real plane traveling 300 mph...the pilot would black out and or never regain control from some of the gamey stuff that is done.

When Planes flop around like fish on a hook when there trying not to be shot down, yea that's just a tad on the unrealistic side  :joystick:  when you have played this game for along time, you see alot of strange things done with planes that's way outside of the real world characteristics of those Planes,  lol i do like watching the floppinfish  :joystick:  but man there hard to hit and they always get me chuckling  :lol

Just a GAME!!!! Nothing REAL about it. 99% of the ACM's as some of you call it would never be possible in real life. A a/c passes me I look back and he is doing a summer salt in mid air(and yes I have seen this happen) and then he is 200 on my 6. So take everything with a grian of salt, take a deep breath, up your best HO a/c, go HO about 5 cons and watch them cry on 200 and have a good laugh about it :x :cheers:

Do you have any experience to backup your theory?

Why would the pilot not black out from a high G turn? Even if it's at 300mph?
As far as I remember you regain control in AH after some time.

Why is it that it is always "I have seen some strange stuff by other people" vs "I have been able to do some strange thing in these airplanes" ?

You may be very surprised what can be done in a real plane that is not done simply because if you fail the maneuver, the ground hurts very much.

do any of those twisty turny floppy maneuvers in a 109 and i guarantee you end up as a greasy spot on the ground...

After re-reading your post...

In AH pilots do black out even at 300mph. You will always regain control after blacking out as long as you don't hit the ground during that time, which is exactly what happens in AH.
In AH sometimes you never regain control after some of the maneuvers and fall for 15K until you hit the ground (with your airplane fully intact).

well I have only flown a real plane once...and have flown in AH for a few years and thankfully in AH you don't really die :D   but now that I have a good understanding of the planes I can easily do some crazy stuff in them with no worries, that video of the aerobatic plane that was posted is just a perfect example of what a human can deal with, could a WW2 plane do the things it was doing? most likely not, but you don't see that stuff in AH, the end over end was pretty crazy, I have spun out and recovered though, a good spin would look similar :aok
