An apology aka I would like to/need to correct the record...

[Triton28]

This would not be happening had you stayed in a 38.    

Your eyes would be widening to new possibilities in the AH flight envelope.  Things would have been clicking, at least slowly.  Instead, you chose the path of least resistance and are getting out of it exactly what you've put in.

But your attempt at humility (assuming it's sincere) is refreshing.  At least this is one part of your way you have considered.

My only other option is to buy a CH combat stick and hope said stick will push me through said ceiling.

There is still MA fun to be had in picking, vulching, HOing, winning, and losing.

Might I suggest buying a muzzle instead of the CH combat stick as it will help you much much more.  It would surely help the rest of the community that listen to ch 200.  You might be approaching "getting it" status if you follow your last line about the MA but I suspect you didn't realize that the whole idea is the "FUN" part.  I have a song that you should listen to called "Short Change Hero" by "The Heavy". 

All the Best...

The same "humility" he shows in the 3 threads a day whining about how much he sucks compared to his FPH?  Nope, no sincerity there, just broken record syndrome.

Just an observation.........

 1.   Be HUMBLE

 2.   Cut down on the channel 200 chest thumping

 3.   Although the ankle humping may be sincere, just give a <S> to your opponent for a good fight.

 4.   Work on dogfighting skills, anyone can play the rope game.  Try to keep your E and let your opponent lose his.

 5.   Don't get sucked into the 200 blah, blah, blah I'm the greatest pilot, etc. game.  It makes you a target for that clan of folks.

 6.   Try not to feel like you have to prove your skills to anyone.  Fly YOUR game and have fun.  Let those others that feel the need for recognition worry about themselves.

 7.   Your actions have made you a target.  Only change will bring a different outcome.

 8.   If you crave the attention you are getting, then let me shake your hand.  You are one of the best.

Who, what is your current setup?

Stick, throttle, rudder?  Make/Model?

You have a decent system?  What about your monitor(s?) size?

I was grading on a curve.

It's no use.  My comprehension capacity is not sufficient to equal the mighty and awesome ones.  I will now become just another toy/victory for said FPHs.     

One must face the reality of one's mental capacity and make due with what one has.

Whatever, seriously... Pand was watching some of my films (aka gag reels) and he was like "Why do you keep oscillating?"... we got it down to the crappiness of my Thrustmaster HOTAS X's centering... every time I make a move, I bleed a bit of E... it's tougher to get a stable firing platform (which is critical with 4 .50s) etc... my Warthog gets here TODAY.

Midway I understand what you're saying

I consider most of us cartoon pilots to be 'mortals' of varying levels of skill, but there seem to be a select few 'Godlike' players who push the envelope so far beyond what mortal pilots are capable of that it beggars belief!

But I guess the thing to remember is even the very best started out as flight virgins and got where they are through hard work. Don't be discouraged!

Although the fact that the Godlike Redbull has been alive for less time than some mortals on this board have been playing flightsims is a tiny bit discouraging...  There is evidently an element of pure natural talent involved somewhere

[Nathan60]

I would also like to apologise for killing Who so often with my shade and enjoying it so much.

We are now brothers in mediocrity.

We must accept our destiny.

We must conform to the accepted norms.

We can try to GV for some bonus fun.

We can deny or we can admire with awe.
