Soda's Aircraft Evaluations

[Oldman731]

You may be able to attach it in the screen shots forum. If not how big is the file?

3,010 KB.  I'm certain that means something.

However, looks like the screen shots forum thing worked.

Any luck on getting Soda's aircraft evaluation pages back up?

I dont think anyone has been able to grab them yet. That would be the first step, then looking for a host. I hope pongo gets a hold of soda and can get the files.

What a shame if Sodas info was lost.

A weak spot of AH is... there aren't many noobs but A TON of vets.

The noobs get Vaporised learning in their 2 week trial n say FK it... little new blood.

Sodas site allowed players to understand the differences in aircraft immediately, helping immensely in a steep learning curve.

While, I may have someone's attention , why not extend the trial period?

I found the AH wiki pages do have information on aircraft as they should be flown in AH, with tips, etc.  That helps.

Wow.  I never thought my site would still be used after all this time.  My service provider pulled the plug on the hosting part (some technology change they didn't port the content over ) and I hadn't maintained the site in probably 7 or 8 years.  I suspect I still have all the original content but it'll require a bit of a search (old computer I'm not even using anymore but still have).

Let me see what I can find.

Your site helped me choose a trainer plane.  Great breakdowns of all the planes.

I visited your site quite often looking up info on various planes Soda.  Just want to say Thank You.

That sight was a tremendous help to a lot of us as well as being fun to read. I'd often go back just to read about the aircraft. It was a huge resource.

I also miss the great evaluation.  It's available in the internet archive which is a great idea:  https://web.archive.org/web/20161202085009/members.shaw.ca/soda_p/models.htm

I am printing some of my favorite's to PDF right now...

Was thinking about how great his reviews would be for new players. Made my life easier when I started out and am going to read these again and probably print them out.

Required reading.

I was running a K4 today and someone asked me the differences between the Bfs. Where do I start?

The plane performance page is a good place to start.  It's on the main page, under the Game Info tab.
