And he is a member of The Damned. 'Nuff said.

Unanimously one of the most hated squads in AH history.

I wouldn't say that.  The original Damned (those made up of players from AW and WB) are a good group of guys. However, their sister squadron made up of ex-members from FA, well, lets just say they are just a pale shadow and lack the class of their parent founding squadron.

No they aren't!!!  They're pure entertainment.  Their jack asstic bafoonery is absolutely mindboggling.  Sig-worthy spoiler alert!!!!


The Damned are simply emotional-inhalers for each other.  Our entertainment is in watching them suck.

I've had the honor of flying with a number of really great people over the years. I won't name any for fear of leaving someone out, but it's really the attitude that has influenced me the most and what drives me to follow these forums when I can't fly, and try to fly for the couple weeks or months when I do have some free time again.

Been meaning to ask you Scotch, does Freez still check in with you gents? Another good guy.

Agreed.  The Damned I remember we're a classy bunch.  This crew can't touch that crew in terms of respect

It is simple when you believe a  style who's  primary goal is not to die is the best, it is best accomplished by staying in the tower. You can then 100% achieve your goal. This is exactly like real life, I would be 99% of the pilots of WWII would have preferred to stay in the tower if they had a choice.

Isn't the goal of historical ACM to outfly and kill the other guy while surviving? I would think all flight styles primary goal would be not to die, relatively speaking.
