A lot of the info has been proven inaccurate. Many of the "stories" must be taken with a grain of salt as there isn't a pilot in the world who isn't going to "tweak" his story a bit much like fishermen do. The shows main purpose is to entertain, so that is how it is built. Facts aren't THAT important.
fish stories interesting lol thank you again no rudness was intented  :salute

I totally blame Rino for *this* thread (and new trend, apparently)...

http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,320889.msg4183177.html#msg4183177

All I have to say about this is, unless you find your *own* way, "you" will never get the recognition you're craving (and I don't mean the "look at me" in a retarded puppy way on 200 and here - you already have that. Doesn't bother me one whit, which is why I don't rag on you about it.)

The above is a free psychobabble message. I recently stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.

(OTOH, getting real gud at flyte simz allows for a lot of leeway in your persona. Only took SHawk about 8 years to find his inner shatner.)

The guns in the film speak louder and more convincingly than the words on 200 or this BBS.  Be sure to grab popcorn and enjoy the movie. Mr "But by all means, I encourage the talentless to acquire skills", aka Mr "awesomesauce....ness".  :aok :bolt:

Ok, Mr Shane...  I see your inuendo and raise you a film...  Look at --->  me <---  shooting down Mr Awesomesauceness four in a row and landing them although the landing was a bit of a challange:   http://www.mediafire.com/?l6xnmpiy7sssjrs

Tangysauce in action.  :aok :D

 :neener:

 :noid

Mid if any of those fights were remotely even I would say wtg.....but bragging about killing someone when you hold all the cards...is like saying you could kick someones butt..if three people held them down....

flying the spit and attacking someone who has much less E killing them is no great feat....yes your aim was good...and you flew the way you should have....not saying you did anything "wrong" in that sortie...except thinking it is something its not......

many many years ago I fought a vet 6 times in a row...he had all the ALT I kept coming back,(he was right out side my base in the same situation you were in..in this film) he killed me every time.....the difference is he did not say ANYTHING on 200 did not brag about it...or anything of the sort.....

flying the spit and thinking you are good is an oxymoron....the spit is the most forgiving plane in the set, and the one you fly is about the most forgiving....you can make mistake after mistake in one and not worry about it.

if you really want to be great at ACM which I think you can be...you need to fly every fighter.....get the heck out of the spit.....fly different planes man, choose one fly it for a month or a week then.....pick something else....... when you go through all the fighters and "know" them...then you will Know how to deal with every plane fly every plane, and not be stuck having to fly the spit to do good.

take it for what it is.....my .02$

I found some real good ones on biometric admiration subsequent to instructional encounters in aerial combat:

Typing while flying Moves one can master in a day: by Midway

Thwarting enemys and friends alike through excessive communication on 200: by Midway

Not bragging and not saying I'm any good yet, but Mr Shane's inuendo deserved a response... and Mr Awesomesauceness should have been able to handle any of those fights against the "talentless" working to aquire skills, imho.   :rolleyes:

 :old:  The talentless working to aquire skills have the right to defend themselves

I understand your point of view, get out of the spit, learn to fly without an advantage, and no need to mention successes, but my point here is more directed at the one who talks big (Mr Awesomesauceness) and smacktalks on 200 and the BBS more than most, aka (Mr. "encourage the talentless to aquire skills").

 :)

Oh, and Shane....  might I suggest the music of Jefferson Starship's "Shane, Shane, Shane" (err Jane Jane Jane) as background theme to the movie?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PwG69620WA :aok :D

"Shane, you're playing a game... you never can win...  girl...."  "don't you pretend you don't know..... what I'm talking about....."  -- Jeff Starship

....for entertainment value ONLY

I disagree. If you watch it just because you have nothing better to do that you wont get anything but entertainment out of it, but it you analyze everything carefully you'll learn.

What did I do?  All I did was make a simple troll comment and now I'm blamed for the Midway/Bruv romance.
Geez it was just a joke.....
