Don't try to loop the Huey. You have been warned.

You need at least one warbird.  You should get the Mossie.  ;)


So that I have another hangar queen? Nah...

Il-2 is for the warbirds, FS2020 for civil aviation, AH for memories of a glorious past, DCS for utter frustration. War Thunder used to be for tankin', but some map updates made me abandon it.

But then, 90% of my stick yanking time is in Elite Dangerous anyway  :joystick:

Never got a carrier but I have the 5 billion. Did get the first Elite rank in combat and trade. Also have Federal Corvette and Imperial Cutter but lost interest.

Have you tried the new MSFS?  Seems like those career modes would be interesting.

Actually I'd have to sell everything to buy a carrier. Forgot I made it to Elite II.

Kinda reminds me of some of the stuff HTC was talking about  AH Tour of Duty or whatever that got abandoned.

I think you were going to have avatar careers like as a escort pilot or bombardier or tanker or transport pilot and you would run MP missions as those avatars and work up their ranks over time and start over if they got killed.  Kinda LARPing MMO flightsim.  That might have been cool.  It would have been something completely different at the time.  Very innovative. Ahead of it's time.

They should have implemented that for Pacific War.

I'm not giving you full credit for a loop there but not bad.

Relax.

We'll fix it in the editing room.

Not yet because

- it's expensive
- still somewhat buggy to my knowledge
- not sure if all my purchased planes will transfer over, which is a big no no for me
