Puke, I have no idea what a "correct" percentage would be. Didn't say you did either.

I just figured I must have been off the boards the day the "correct percentage" was decided.  :D

As far as perking, I personally wouldn't perk anything. I really don't care what anyone else flies. Just as you are going to go ahead and fly the Wildcat no matter what anyone else is flying.

I think it's just ebb and flow. IMO, eventually people would have moved out of the F4U-1C looking for something different in the AH experience. It's only a killer because of the guns. After a while, that'd have to get old I'd think.

Perk points? I once used fighter perks. We let guys in the squad call the mission and one night somebody said "F4U-4" and so I spent my first fighter perks on that sortie. We got caught low climbing out and got basically slaughtered. :) Haven't spent a fighter perk since.. doubt I will..... don't care either way.  

Perk, schmerk. I like to fight. I'll fight anything. Sometimes I fight smart, sometimes I fight stupid. But I just like to fight.

So you guys fly what you like. Let's fight.  :)
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

What Toad said, and more. I am another person that thinks nothing should be perked (with the possible exception of the 262), but if the system has to exist, the ones that are currently perked are probably as good as any to do.

I am not against your POV, Steven, you just jumped in at a bad spot. Mahn-duh-BO-LEE is the one I am really directing most of this at, because he has a particular agenda and doesn't much care how he gets it done. And, like Toad, I am curious what is the break point percentage for perking.

Of course, I don't really believe that is it at all for some, they are going to complain about X or Y plane as long as they exist in the sim for their own reasons, indecipherable as those reasons might be for most of us.

Many players Samm. There are approximately 30 Spanish players of AH, only Supongo, Mandoble, RAM and me fly LW irons  as main rides. Other players are F4U fans( Lince, Zamo), N1K(Aker, Japanx), P51D(Durruti, Gadget), P38(Belcebu, Javier(1)), yak(Camaleon) and even spits (Victhor, others). Nidea is our pt, flack, m16 hero.

Some notes about the spanish and Spain for you Samm and others:
 
 - Spain is not the same country that Mexico
 - Not all the spanish are bullfighting
 - Not all the spanish sing and dance "flamenco"
 - In Spain rains, specially in the north of the country
 - Franco died in 1975(too late)


 My regards.

Ok it is just the few vocal spaniards, RAM, Mandoble, Glasses, Tekada, and now you that gave me that impression.  Since these are the only spanish I ever seem to see posting here .

Anyway it's good to know that you guys represent only a small portion of the spanish aces high players .

For most of the Spaniards write or speak in English is a torture(included me). Glasses is from Puerto Rico, no spanish.

It is good for the business of HTC, for you it is the same thing.  
But if you want you can separate now the good Spaniards of the Spanish bads (LW riders or "too biased" like Morsa says).  
This small portion help a lot of new players(and clients) of AH from spain last times,  I sure that you don't know that.

I hope that somebody began a thread with  title "15 reasons because I love play AH", I can give them quickly. Anyway I would continue without  be a cheerleader and protesting if some game-play aspect is wrong IMO.


Saludos(my regards).

This thread, and some of the people involved in it, are the most rediculous things I have seen in a long time. Utterly useless.

Of course not.

Only a spoiled child would try to tell other paying customers what they should or should not fly.

Hmmm, everytime I fly HTH with Geeman, he ALWAYS wants me to fly the same plane as he's flying...may have to re-think fatherhood. :)
