I really know that I shouldn't reply but HOW CAN YOU BE SO TEDIOUS :bhead

Tedious???? :huh

That's but a brief summary in a few words.  The effort to get to this level of skill can take up books!  How much do you know about what made RJ Mitchell great?  How much do you know about the Albatross?  How much do you know about dynamic soaring?  How much do you know about what it takes to pwn like Bruv in Aces High, consistently land more victories than just about anyone else and win three TOCs? :joystick:

My little summary is nothing compared to the years of effort to acquire that level of skill...
 ...and get through the information and practice required. :old:

Nothing indeed. :salute


Now, quit asking me questions about all this since way way way way more than nuff's been said. :bhead

I know a lot about RJ Mitchell, I couldn't give a toss about Albatrosses, but I know that they don't strive to better their 'skill' at flying, my 8 yr old stepson says pwn'd and Bruv's outstanding at playing this computer game.... and you misspelled consistently. :aok

Fixed your pointed out misspelling. :aok

Watch a young Albatross try to fly and then tell me they don't try to better their skill. :)
