Actually I find that all the ex-AW personalities are the same in AH as they were in AW.:D   Heck most of these guys are so predictable I could set my watch by them regardless of what sim they were in.  
Personally I have felt NO hostility between the AH and AW communities—after all it is very simple—we are all the AH community now!  The ex-AW just has to accept that…

Lorri:

I don't think I know you but from the sound of it you flew bomber wings in AW.  If that is the case than if you are lucky enough you may get a glimpse of our legendary combo of -BK- FSU and of course the elusive SLAPR.  
:D

Your so right MWHUN, the B17 was my plane of choice, and yes I remember those two! Both very great B17 pilots :) So far I've been playing with boats and spits, but I hope to get the feel back for a bomber soon. Running goonies was also a favorite of mine, but dogfighting with fighter's was something I never was very good at. Campr from Hell Gods took me under his wing and taught me alot about fighter's, mind you though, even with his help I still sucked at it, and I suck even worse now, hehe.

It's all fun tho :)

In that case, try to hook up with Flossy.  She's one of them "Don't fly a fighter" types.  

Buffs are fun in AH ('specially formations).

LOL!  Well since the new bombing method I haven't flown bombers much!  Spend most of my time on the ground now, though I am hoping to get back into bombing again.... just lost heart a bit when I couldn't hit anything.  Actually, I am hoping to be flying with my primary squad (Kraits) in Zekes in Midway scenario, so that should be and interesting and unusual experience!  :)

At least I have 8 more days to decide before I have to fork out the card # :p


lorri, sorry I missed this post. I was using my mouse to scratch my back and now it's full of hair and  doesn't scroll right.

I think there's a bit of good-natured bantering back and forth that sometimes people take a bit too seriously, but as a newbie you'll be pleased at just how helpful the community is. Unless you say something inflamatory about AH vets you won't get teased. Don't worry. :)

This Game is everything that AW could have been and more. A two week trial doesn't do this game justice. Hey, I spent my 2 week trial sitting on a runway unable to figure out how to start my motor or ask for help, got discouraged and left. This sim rocks, the community is great and we have a staff that plays the game, unlike the beancounters at EA.Com who wrecked Air Warrior. (At the mention of EA.Com a hiss is heard throughout the room.)

I'm having just as much fun here, excepting the fact I get shot down a lot, as I ever did in AW and I learn something new every day. Yesterday I found out you can actually LAND a plane instead of it automatically bursting into flame. I mean, how kewl is that?

The Training Arena is a great place to start, and with reduced lethality it's ideal for pratice of bombing skills. It's also staffed by volunteers- many of them AW vets, BTW. You'll love this game.

Hehe, there really isn't *THAT* much trolling on here Air. Just avoid a few certain people, and everything will be alright.

Just becareful what you chew on in MA when I'm off on a tangent.
