"Chutes will no longer show up in sector counters." = more of an incentive to shot spies?

But I just don't get this..."Fixed a bug where flak was killing slow and straight airplanes instantly." Don't sound like a bug to me  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

My, oh, my! They sure have been busy. On top of three great new planes ( I have no use for the amphibs  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) ), quite a few improvements on the small details that make flying with HTC easier and more fun.

I would still like to see obvious old problems fixed (like the B-17 muzzle flashes being in the wrong place on certain turrets).

No way I am going to give praise without a whine, "just wouldn't be prudent!" Not on this bbs, anyway   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Worst part is, I still can't afford to be a paying customer, yet   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)

Thank you HTC for giving me a great escape from the dullness and stresses of reality with a great bunch of people entirely for free. I promise, one day you will get a fair shair of my money when other financial commitments finally go away.

They said the Forward (Hull) MG for Panzer 4's and Dweebwinds will be a manned position.. does that mean they will be able to move a few degrees in any direction?

If I recall it right, 1.07 brings mannable field acks so that should balance things.

edit: It's really good we get rid of those ghost planes. Recently I've started to see them more and more. I thought it was just me, but glad to see I'm not getting insane here. I can't count how many times I've burnt my alt and chased those dots at the deck  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

To: Dale "HiTech" Addink
From: Cohen & Real Law Office
Subject: Keys

Dear Sir,

     We have been getting a rash of complaints and have decided to file a class-action law suit against Hitech Creations. The reason for this is relatively simple; you have used every key on the US Standard 101 Enhanced Keyboard. We hereby request you either: A) design a new keyboard specifically for use with Aces High or B) find a new way to implement actions in the game. At this time we are prepared to settle out of court for a modest fee. That fee being one of the two above mentioned items. If we do not receive a response within ten (10) working days we will continue with the suit.

[signed]
T.A. Real
