Title: Soda's Aircraft Page moves
Post by: Soda on July 21, 2005, 12:08:47 AM
After a couple of ISP issue I decided it was time to move the site.  The new location is:

Soda's Aircraft Evaluations (http://members.shaw.ca/soda_p/models.htm)

Thanks so much for the time and effort u put into this site. I go to it at least twice a week. People ask me how I know so much about so many aircraft when for years I was mainly a gv'er. I tell then to go to you site it's the best for planes in the game. I really enjoy reading about all the different aircraft. When u do the P47n that will be great. I flown it a few times and no other plane in the game does wep make such a difference. Without wep speed wise it's like P47 D that handles like the P47 11. Wep gives 40mph boost. Will enjoy reading your comments. Also been waiting on the 38j. It seems a little faster than the L but haven't tested them for sure.

Again, Thank you Soda

Thanks for the warning Soda, and for all the good work you have done in these years.

Btw, link at Netaces.org is still to the old site, maybe you should warn them.

Another thing: I saw your posts in Kweassa's thread (http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=155592) and I'm really curious... is there any chance that you will add EM diagrams to your evaluation pages? I've always wanted to have them for AH planes, but I simply can't do them by myself... :D

Hadnt seen that site in a while.
Good sight for noobs and veterans alike.

Note to newbies. Make sure you read up abaout all the planes and especially the ones you see/face the most. And not just about the plane you like to fly.

The more you can understand about your opponents plane the better position you will be to know how to defeat it

That may happen.  I am working with some of Kweassa's data right now to see how it turns out.  It's very interesting and I think the results are looking good.

Hi Soda,

i really like your pages. Hope youll add the p38G and j too.

One thing, the page has the title "template", thats also what shows up when i bookmark it. Can you change that to something more appropiate, like "Sodas AH2 aircraft descriptions" ?

You know... you can right click on it and rename the link yourself.

I know skywolf, but the title also shows up in the window representation in the taskbar and having something like "Sodas ......" in there will make it easier to find when multiple windows are open.

I'll fix the title with the next release, it's about a 2 second fix.  Not sure how that snuck through but obviously I missed it.

I should have an update posted fairly soon.  I have a couple of updates based on changes and the new aircraft but things have been a bit slow.  Summer is always that way and I have a couple of other side-projects I'm working on right now.  Should certainly have the P-47N, an update to the 190D9, maybe a P-38 model update also.

A couple of things:

1) There is no such thing as an aimed shot at D1000 because of the divergence of rounds at those ranges.  The actual hit pattern looks like a shotgun at those distances so any round that does land isn't really aimed but more just luck.  Aimed would indicate you intend most rounds to hit, not hoping a couple will.

2) The La7 writeup was done for AH1 where the long-range shooting ability of the La7 was markedly inferior to most other aircraft.  For something with 3 cowl mounted cannons, which should give near-optimal convergence over most distances, the La7 did not have any reputation for long-range hitting power.  In AH2 with the generally reduced distances this isn't nearly as noticable an issue.
