1) A heavy fighter, a fighter armed with bombs and rockets

2) A sudden loss of conenctio nto the AH arena causing you to dissapear

3) Large melee of planes in one large dogfight

Welcome to Aces High, hope you enjoy yourself!

Jabo is the big bouncer at the local nightclub

Disco is that new funky dance craze

Furballing is what about 50% of us do at any given time in AH.  Fly in circles and shoot each other down.

Or maybe,

Jabo - my definition - ground attack, usually against base targets or vehicle hangers.

Disco - Disconnect from the server either at your end or at HTC's servers or somewhere in between.

Furballing - think cat and dog fight.  everybody just mixing it up

1) Jabo

What Rooks attempt to do, but after-report action calls it "FUBAR".

2) Disco

What an enemy that is defeated in a fight initiates with ALT-F4, but what he doesn't realize is he just gave the kill to the guy that had a few bullets in him, or the nearest pilot to him as he alt-f4'd.

3) Furballing

When a bunch of rutabagas do ("Fur"balling) when theyhave no clue how to look at the big picture strategically (See Lazs picture under definition)
