I think you's forgot to address a few things.

I not all the time live on my ditches.

It was said the the ditches here are "unrealistic" maybe, maybe not.

BUT, chasing a smoking plane to the tarmac, AND/OR finishing off plane AND/OR pilot on the ground was realistic???? Come on! who did that?

I make sure my enemy is dead and has no chance to ditch, If he does, that would be poor gunnery on my part. Because i do play to remove my enemy from the virtual skies.

If he had the savy to jinx me and NOT give me a certain kill shot,AND avoids me to the point he can land, He then EARNED that land, and would definately deserve a <S> from me, Somehow it got twisted the other way

I love a good ditch! Example: You are greatly outnumbered by the enemy.... you take out two or three of the ganbangers.. then get smoked up....ditching on those ravenous dogs is very gratifying! Better that a single victory!

Hee hee... ok.. I couldn't resist this one.  Coyote, you said many of your ditches come from belly landing a 47 near the map room????  You have exposed yourself, lad.  You are taking advantage of the very deficiencies in ground modeling that you so loudly and rudely were complaining about.  I seriously doubt that any 47 drivers in real life EVER tried to do that, at least on purpose.  Let's see, a bus load of grunts, bounced until their bones are broken and their gear is smashed... yeah, that is exactly what they would have done in "real life"...real effective way to do it...NOT!  But in AH, you can get away with it because of the current ground modeling...ummm, but you keep screaming that the ground modeling sucks, and allows "cowards" to take advantage of it... uh... then you would be a "coward" who takes advantage of it...hmmmmmmm... what a concept.  Give it a rest, and quit being a hypocrite, and worse yet, a whiner who can't just fly on to the next battle when he hasn't won the last one.

As such a new member (and Crappy pilot so far), I hate to get involved in such a childish thread, but I can't resist (like most others):

1)Coyote....If your 49 ditches stem mainly from legit landings, I would think that RAM's do as well.  I guess that ONE ditch difference in the two stats happened to be the one you are in such arms about.  Ironic.

2)If realism is what you are truely after, and you claim ditching and simply clicking "fly" is a horrible and cowardly thing, I recommend that the next time you DIE in a fight, you unplug your computer and never fly Aces High again.  Death is permanent in reality

A ditch should count as a kill, but if its in friendly territory it should continue the pilots streak.

To expand on Verm's theme... If ditched in Enemy turf, it should be a full kill.  If ditched in freiendly turf, it should be a HALF kill.  Operative word "kill" being satisfied to one degree or another.

Hello McFly!! A C47 would be easy to ditch in real life, especially on a flat man made surface like an airstrip. Do you comprehend any of this?? I am talking about UNREALISTIC DITCHING. (i.e., A Spitfire, landing on hilly terrain??? Hell, spitfires were so unstable on that narrow track gear that they were prone to wreking while taxing around the airfield.....

So,coyote, I am SURE that ALL clever C-47 pilots ditched their planes on runways to conquer them.LOL!. And of course is NOT a cowardice of yours ditching the plane instead of launching the paras and risk your butt being kicked by any pilot going near there huh?,mmmm??? ROTFL!!...

Look man we've caught you in your own trap. be wise and shut up instead trying to defence yourselve when you have demonstrated that EVEN you break your own rules when you do belly landings in C-47s. A wise man accepts his errors. A coward one shuts up and walks away as silent as he can. And a  stupid one keeps on defending the undefendible. Make your choice.

Ram Ram Ram, wish I could sell you some produce since you obvioulsy don't know the difference between apples and oranges... You  make irrelevent arguements that have nothing to do with the point of the conversation.  Ditching a C47 at an enemy filed that is not defeneded has zippo to do with ditching in combat to "rob" another of a kill. If the field is defended, I would be dead regardless since I take fields by small attacks(1 plane) and stealth.

Now here is the real kicker. I would welcome a game revision that made ditching a C47 a bad gamble. Would not bother me a bit. But, you would kick and scream like a stuck pig if they took away your ability to "land" anywhere on the map to rapidly end a fight that you are losing.

Now, maybe you should quit while your not as far behind as you could be...

Funny.. I only "hear" one person kicking and screaming in this thread... calm yerself, before ya have a stroke at such a tender age.  The modeling is what it is, and we all (including you) take advantage of it as it exists, so get over it, get yer shorts unbunched, climb back in to yer cockpit, and do yer talking with yer guns.  Anything else just makes ya look sillier than ya already have.  Your accusation that everyone who ditches is a coward and couldn't play the game without this ability just shows your ignorance and arrogance.  Give it a rest.

Say goodnight Gracie.

I'll give you no more words than these in this last post. Its and evidence that to talk with you is to talk with a wall...talk talk talk and nothing changes. You choiced the stupid way and I usually dont lose my time with people who act in stupid ways.

and BTW...I see you LOVE to fly in team...one plane attacks and stealth...you arent very sociable are you?

But, you would kick and scream like a stuck pig if they took away your ability to "land" anywhere on the map to rapidly end a fight that you are losing.
 I dont ditch to steal any kill I ditch to make my pělot survive and fight another day. Im pretty sure that if you are in a dead engined plane you'll stay in the air to die...because its clear you dont want to steal any kill to your foe isnt it???? LOL LOL and LOL...

BTW coyote...the only one who has yelled and screamed as a stuck pig are you...maybe you must note this...you are calling yourselve wonderful things, did you know that?

As someone said before its SAD to see a SO GOOD pilot yelling and crying as you do. I wont lose more time with this. What a waste of pilot
