Warbirds convention 2002, Oct 10-13th.

Skuzzy, I agree, and I think if you would look at my post, I think you will find I didnt attack Hedu.  I dont care personally about him advertising a get together.   I have never found it in good taste to come try and sell another online sim on AHs board, but he isnt doing that.

I simply commented on the fact that normally if anyone posted anything on AGW positive about AH, he could expect to be beaten to a pulp with the negative and nasty responces he would get.

Interesting to me was how many were determined to protect AGW as a sort of official "IEN Warbird" board, when in fact it was operated strictly by Argo, with no ties at the time to IEN.  He even had on his OT Section a statement that it was for discussions of other games and sims.  Didnt matter to the board Nazis.

I am glad that the AH board is not really patrolled by insecure people afraid to allow mention of other games.  But then, why should we be, it's not AH that is suffering, that lacks updates, and hasn't seen a financial statement printed in black ink in anyones recent memory.

If you didn't like what I said about Jordi, hey, fine, thats your right. But do you think when I put it there I was thinking, "Gosh, I hope I offend Revvin"?


I did'nt say you did but you went out of your way to have a pop at Jordi and indirectly at AH...again.

I saw your post in that thread and didn't understand what you were trying to say


I posted a link, I'm quite enthusiastic when it comes to tinkering with the Cougar programming, take a look in the AH forum here I have fun doing it so posted my WBIII profile link to get you started, although the software coems with a WBIII profile I figure you can never have too many profiles to pick the best bit's out of. I posted that and then saw you post half a dozen sweeping comments about AH players in general, hit by a bus, made to feel most unwelcome etc so removed it, why should I bother when someone who has accussed me in the past of being an AH fan boy (even though I play both AH and WB and WW2OL) posts stuff like that.

Yes Goober does wind people up but he replies to the very same group of players who constantly trash AH at any oppurtunity at AGW or anywhere else the same way MG and cabby used to post here constantly you can't have it both ways.

Revvin, funked flies AH, and we get along great. I have kidded with Ripsnort, my old squad X/O is over here. I even had one of your guys make me an AH playing card with my 109 in it. Please make the difference in reason as to why people become defensive or arguementative


Read your post back to yourself..take a minute and just read where you've posted 'your guys' 'our sim' it's all a kind of 'them and us' mentality, are we not all "like minded prop-heads" after all?

Revvin, man, the pendelum swings both ways


Hedu, man, yes it is swinging so why do you feel the need to bat it back everytime it swings towards AGW?

Yes I have mapped trim to rotaries but not as analogue but as digital statements, crude but it works you can also map WEP to the end of the throttle travel. Mixing analogue and digital outputs to an axis at the same time is one of the great things about the Cougar that no other stick can do, not to mention the logical programming.
