My CO in AW told us about it. Came over in the mass exodus back in '01. I remember seeing the first commercial for AH on the History Channel, it was probably '05 or somewhere  around that time.

Back in Warbirds 2.7 I heard about this new thing the ex warbirds devs were doing. It was called Aces High and it was supposed to be much more realistic.

You even had pilots walking and climbing to the planes on startup and when you started to fly you felt like flying lead weights instead of planes!

And so it was. Now that I look at AH - no walkups to the plane, no lead weights.. where's the realism?  :devil

I remember those days, and when you pulled back on the stick you sank into the seat, or if you rolled left your head moved right.  Seemed very disjointed at the time. Lol.

I wonder if I still have some the early versions an a hard drive some where,  I know I have many of the early Warbirds versions.

I'd heard about Aces High from other members of my squad at the time (The Krait Squadron) in AW.  For a while I played both but finally came here when the plug was pulled on AW.

Me and dad discovered this in 01 I was 6 and we've been here since. I think a commercial aired on the Wings Channel back then.
