You're well on your way! However the line in the sand has been redrawn, seeing how AH has but one FM and one comunity.

You need to take a test to requalify.

1) What's your stance on the AWACs radar

2) digital ranging icons

3) combat trim

4) and auto-retract flaps??

Hmmmmm?

1.I really don't like the 'dar setup
in here.

2. Got used to flying with out range markers from flying full screen in AW

3. Don't use Combat trim, prefer to use manual trims.

4. Auto-retract flaps suck, especially in the P-38.

A BIG NO to RR.

And enough about airwarrior.. let it die already.

Maybe HTC should just buy the AW code, set up a server hosting that tired old game and then the rest of us can get back down to cases.

No to RR.

yes to more organized and easy-to-find training.

I believe ya have something there, Hangtime!!

HT worked for AW and prolly knows the archaic code that was...AW. It would clear up space in the MA and the "Dweebfire Arena" Westy eluded to would set "them" FREE!
I flew AW for nearly 5 years-mostly RR, and I have been dweebin' it here since August 1999. (as you know) I left AW and never looked back. Dale and the great staff at HTC have enough on their plate with AH. Maybe they could Hire Mage, and put him in a little Room with a Server, Keyboard and Mouse, and let him Pilot AW!

He has the knowledge.

All that said, AH has been getting better and better every day for me. (since Beta days) I get kills, I get killed, and it's all part of the experience. I just filmed a train for the first time......nearly wet myself.
This is NOT Air Warrior, and it should NEVER...EVER..resemble that POS!

I keep myself as a newbie. Ive been in AH only a few months now and I dont have any experiences of other combat sims. At the beginning I had some difficulties but thats the challenge what Im looking for. Im getting better every week now and now this is not so difficult anymore. You are talking about some sims what are easier or have different modes which are easy. Im surprised.. is there really something easier somewhere?

I hope even more realism in AH. I want it as realistic as possible. ( no real deaths )

NO!..Don't need it now that CT has scoring and field captures. Perhaps it will have some more "Hardcore" tweaks in the future making it an interesting alternative to MA mayhem.

HT never worked for AW.

Besides FighterAce or WB's with "easy mode"? Not anymore, no

Which is why you still have a job and can afford expensive single malts

I sympathize with Dmax's frustration. My pet hate is those stupid questions that clog up the text buffer. I'm the one telling them to RTFM, but then I remember they can't read anyway.
Hopefully the 'market' will sort this out. RR was always the profitable part of AW3; the FR arena probably didn't pay for itself. (If any ex AW staff know different, please say.)
There are far more kids wanting to play arcade type combat flight sims than there are serious simmers, so hopefully a new game will appear shortly to draw them off. In the meantime AH benefits from their subscriptions.
