I'm back... actually better than expected
« on: February 08, 2024, 04:27:08 AM »
I have now little bit more time on my disposal so I'm back to try it for a while.

I was actually surprised how good the action in MA is. Despite only ~70 players online in my time zone evenings the action is strong, players are deadly and it was quite fun.

Wasn't able to shut down any fighter but I managed to take Yak-9T and hunt several low flying bombers - something I rarely do.
(This canon is fantastic in killing bombers)

My 7.5 years old PC with relatively recent AMD rx6600xt gives fantastic framerates so I'm well pleased.

See you around.

Yeah we are levels of about 120 on a regular night and around 150 before FSO starts. It really depends on the map and which side has the fight when you log in. 70 players certainly depend on the map.

Glad to see you back and flying  :salute :airplane:

Come join the Master of the Air event on Saturday at 8pm if you can.

Welcome back!
My job schedule has kept me from logging in for a month or so, gonna try to fire up the system and do some flying this time on my days off.  Hope to see you guys in the unfriendly skies soon.

welcome back... now we need to get Webs flying again.... or was 101 from WB different from one in AH ?

Either way, good to have someone flying euro time. Always little short in that timezone.

That 101 does not really exist any more. It moved to IL2 and than to DCS many years ago and now is not really active as far as I know.
