 I have never commented on anothers flying abilitys before. But I ran into this guy the other night in an H2H arena. He was supposed to duel kiren. But kiren,s arena wasnt working. So he was left to my tender mercy,s. We had some of the best fights Ive had in a long time. If you get a chance to duel this guy, he gives great fight .

Easymo....

I would have liked to have seen those fights, as both of you are great sticks.

I met by-tor a long while ago and went up through FO (Fighter Ops) and some WB time with him.  Besides being a talented virtual pilot, he's also a gracious on-line personality.  He used to punch my lights out regularly, but always had something positive to say about what I had done right.

There are actually a lot of guys like him on here, whom from time to time, restore my faith in the human nature aspect of Internet communications.  They help me forget some of the socially dysfunctional characters that show up now and then, not only here but also AGW.

Got any films you can share of those scraps?

Regards,
Badger

so much love for our fellow dactyl

I can usually only shoot him down when he is on someone else's 6!

by-tor has done much to help us fellow dactyls learn to fly.  Actually, i think he introduced WB's to most of us!  And he's sure to kick our arnoldes on a regular basis to make us better pilots!

Amen, Badger. Thank cod for the good, decent folk. Sometimes the few bad apples almost ruin the experience for me.

We finally got it going last night (I can't host for some reason?). We had a great time. You're right, he is a class character, one you never care if you lose to. I look forward to seeing him in the arena some day!

P.S. He told me last night his brother, Eadg, has joined the ladder. That leaves only one question:

Who will #2 be?

I've known bytor for a while too. Dueled him over on the WB's ladder. He is as humble slapping your head as he is when he gets his slapped (he doesn't get his slapped much). And like you say easymo, he puts up a whale of a fight.

 Uhhh....Well thx for the kind words all.
Coming from the likes of such dangerous virtual foe as yourselves, I am truely honored.I SHOULD have a clue about ACM for how long I've been flying.Fact is,I'm bested regularly by many with far less stick-time than myself-those are the 'naturals'.I just keep at it because I've been hopelessly enamored with WW2 air-combat since childhood.
 Hope to mix it up again with you all real soon.Getting Whooped by the best is the ONLY way to learn  !

By-Tor and I used to always duke it out in Beta.  For some reason we would always meet and it would turn out to be some hair-raising stunts being pulled.  He usually won, but I hope I gave him his money's worth!!  It was free at that time, so I guess I did!

Also flew next to him and always had some good conversation!

Didn't we By-Tor??

Wow...I never knew eadg was by-tor's brother.  Now there's another class act I used to fly against in Fighter Ops (FO) and WB.  I always thought they were remarkably similar in style and behaviour.  Unfortunately, there's also another one that used to wipe the floor with me regularly.  I have to start stalking "newbies" to get out of this slump.  

Both of these guys will be a welcome addition to AH from a personal perspective and will really raise the bar of flying caliber opponents for the vets here.

Badger
