Not to mention Jbroey is only posting the question to start a flamewar.

Tell me, did your Mom model polite behavior? It appears not (to me) because the only time I see you post in here is when you think you've found a new ruler for your AH/IL2 whang measuring contest. Do everyone a favor please: zip up, youngster and be on your way.

Toad, get over yourself, and take those blinders off.

Clue # 2, ... Wrong Mr. Kieran, put your pom poms down now.

Why do you assume this guy's question is phrased "IL2 models Mach tuck and is therefore a way better flight sim than stinky old Aces High". Perhaps he is just curious as to whether or not Aces High models Mach tuck. An unimportant and esoteric feature to be sure, but what is the harm in just giving a straight answer instead of an automatic flippant insult?

And 715 Is the Winner: You see he obviously is not blind cheerleaders that most here are.

Yes 715 what you wrote was my intention. At least you can see that with a clear eye.

Really, Jbroey? You mean you didn't disregard the BBS policies by posting off-topic material about a competitor's product on the open forum? Who has the pom-poms?

Please, by all means, answer in German again about how we will never see the greatness of Il-2.

Oooo.. oooo... if I'm fast I get to be the first to point out that you misspelled "misspelled"

Geez guys where's the problem? Jbroey asked a very simple question and HT answered it. No need for drama.

I guess you have missed some of the previous posts.

Yeager... Yeager was the first man to go Supersonic in level flight, supersonic speeds had been reached (with proof) several times before during Korea bu F86 pilots.

AFAIK you can't brake the sound barrier with prop planes unless the prop blows off, once it reaches near mach speeds the prop cause more drag then it pulls and the plane don't go faster.

Not sure what more proof you need but sure what ever ya'll say...

The IL-2 vs. AH comparisons are not such a bad thing, even though the apples/oranges argument regarding massive online play is warranted.

Other than this topic that seems a bit petty, still, the player asking a game play question, if nothing, points out my frustration of HTC being a bit coy in their administration of the game. Something that can be annoying.

Still, I won’t question HTC, they have proved their decisions in game play and development have been solid decisions, time and time again.

Note, Il2 has a forum where the developer answers players directly, and they actually promote that. That’s good. I wonder if HTC will follow?

HTC staff (top to bottom) answer questions directly on every forum in this BB.

In fact, didn't the F86 pilots go SS and create a sonic boom (which Yeager heard) either the day before, or even the morning of the first Yeager SS flight?
