Can't speak to the best pilot, but I can lay claim to being the worst :)

Too many good sticks to name just one.

He he :)

Statistical analysis of top 100 fighters scores and stats gave me the following list of pilots who are "the best" (current tour was taken for analysis):

Herblife
blukitty
TURN
Zaphod
KillnU
1olo
Lazer
aka
Flufffy
Delirium
Wilbuz
COORS
Stang
skpg
konjiki
pacerr
Leviathn
BigR
Vne
Fester
ChainGuN
psob3
MarselIi
crowMAW
BTFlaps
Soulyss
Sniper68
MADDBULL
rthus
Trshman
Ezeepkns
HiSpd
SHawk
WETRAT
4ACES
Furball
FX1
Iluvu2
tukiyo
BMWhisky
Palli

List is sorted by number of sorties, so the first position doesn't mean the best.

I have no idea who are they, with most of them I have never met in MA. It is just pure statistics.

May be there are more pilots who should be in this list but if they are not in top 100 I don't know their flight IDs.

Now tell me WHO ARE ALL THAT PEOPLE?

Post by: DREDIOCK on February 22, 2006, 03:58:19 PM
I dont know about anyone else but I keep a sort of mental notebook of the better pilots I come across.
That way when I hear a particular pilot is in my area I know what to look for and eventually what to look out for.

Each seems to have their own particular style and signature in the way they fly

The Two best I've come across in the last year or so
Is Stang and Erubus (not sure on the spelling)

Erubus for some reason I can only kill consistantly when Im in a 110

Dangerous pilot, particularly right after the merge. One of those pilots who can while comming from the opposite direction, pull a U turn on you on a dime and catch you from behind. Very good sence of timing

Stang Flies a style I find more frustrating then anything. Similar to Shane but with vast improvements. Both like to force the overshoot.
Stang just does it in more ways and is much better at it. Very good at positioning sideslip . Roll and yaw.

Stang is killable. I say his style is frustrating because its hard to ge a good bead on him  when he is most vulnerable without colliding with him.
And that vulnerability is there but for a moment.
To kill Stang. Timing is everything

Other then those two off the top of my head I cant even think of a close second Though I am sure they are out there

and thats not to say there arent other very good pilots out there. Indeed there are.
Of course everything is subject to each personal style.
Because of everyones particular style Some people are better suited to fight certain pilots then others.
Much like some boxers are better suited against a particular style then another

Some fly much better as part of a team then as individuals. The JBs immediately come to mind. 42 is probably their best individual pilot.
 But together even against even odds they fly very very well together

Some are very good at slashing hit & run tactics.

but for pure balls to balls knife fighting.
those are the two best I can think of I've come up against

True mand, he was a squady of mine and he really grated on my nerves as well!

And all this talking is pointless, I am clearly the best. Skuzzy, go ahead and lock it, no need to debate it further.

heh, trying to quantify skill in this game is very difficult.  i have no idea who is the best, or who might be the worst.  what i do remember from fights are the guys who make great moves, great shots, etc.  there are some very dangerous sticks out there....if you make a mistake against them, you will die, but hopefully learn something in the process.

imho there are some great sticks on that list.  however there are some guys on that list that are aweful.  one of them on the list, that i had an "interesting" encounter with was vulching a field.  a few planes got up, including my 190.  I chased his typhoon all the way back to his base, where he proceeded to drag me through is ack.  so i killed all the ack, dodging his lame attempts to attack.  (yes he had plenty of ammo, was not rtbing because of that or fuel).  so, if i believe his numbers, i would have to believe that he is a really good stick, but in reality he is not good at all.

i know the exact opposite is true for some other guys on the list, from personal experience.  i think even among these guys it can be difficult to tell who is the best.  one fight, player A wins.  the next fight player B wins.  and then of course factor in planes, maybe player A beats player B 10 times with a spit, but player B beats player A 10 times in F4U's.

ouch, think i just broke my brain............nope it was like that before:eek:

in conclusion it is clear that the best pilot is anyone who lets me shoot them down:) vast

Hey, if you are talking about my list.... it is joke... almost. :)

Actually, this is the list of pilots who were removed from my analysis because they spoil statistic data I was working on.

On the other hand, I was surprised how many really good pilots got a leg in this list. And what was more surprising that statistical patterns are the same for this group and for others from the rest of the top 100.

May be I am about to make great discovery! :)

So, I published this list but I still can't find the theory which can explain  results :)

And you won't. Some guys get good fighter scores because they're good sticks. Lots of guys get good fighter scores because they're timid as hell/path-of-least-resistance scorepotato types. And plenty of good sticks get crappy fighter scores because they just don't care/screw around.

And that's why scores are a lousy indication of skill :cool:

No, I will :)
"Statistics knows everything" (c) (from one of the Russian comedy movie)
If you are "timid as hell" you will be cut off by the K/S or K/H.

If you don't care.... yes, it is a little problem, but just because statistics can't get your datas. HTC provide convinient way to see stats for the top 100 only. Even if you have rank 3000 but you are good pilot you will be catched.  It is like ability to sing - you can hide your gift but if you have to sing you can't hide your abilities.


But please, don't take it too serious. I am playing with the stats but it's nothing more than a game. And English is not my first language, it is some times difficult to explain that  it is not serious.

"Best Pilot"?  

The ones who don't piss and moan when asked to grab a goon.  The ones who don't piss and moan and aren't afraid to roll a batch of GV supplies to help defend.  The ones who might get vulched a couple of times, and then in turn, get a foothold of a potential base grab.  

Sorry, I can't name one.   What really is the determining factor?  I know, there isn't one.

I think you're confusing virtual CTF warriorz with pielutz. Best "stick" implies pieluts. Grabbing a GV or dropping troops might help with the "war", but it has little, if anything, to do with flying, or even relative aptitude.

Aces High's Top 10 Most wanted.
These guys are all good pilots, but whats more, they are good sports.
They'll take time to help you in a jam, clear your 6, and make it look easy.

Most of them have been around for years, and are incredibly deadly.
You people who are new to AH, havn't been here for 5 years, watch these guys. Watch how they talk to people, watch how they deal with opponants. And watch how they fly. learn from them, emulate them, follow their lead.

aka
blukitty
Delirium
Fester
Flufffy
HiSpd
Leviathn
pacerr
Stang
Wilbuz

The rest of the list is full of  shade accts, possers, cherrypickers and a few just plain good folks that didn't make my top 10 list.  :)

BTW Yucca should have been on that list, MAN that guy handed my my head so fast last time I fought him.

Get ready for my 2bobs worth.  :D

I think when we start getting into the top handful of pilots that are just Gods in the MA, there is only timing that separates one  from another, they all know the moves, they all know how to use there control surfaces & throttle etc to A tea. I mean I have had A bash at some of the top sticks that we as A group are naming & they are of A different class.

Because I’m British, I usually play with the European boys & some of the early bird Americans. So most of the names we have got in here I have no clue who they are.

But I can tell you this, Wilbuz can keep his E like no other, his crazy mad at it & his the only one that I have seen take on 4/5/6 people at A time & smack nearly every single one up.

Shooting wise, I would have to big up my squad mate Bruv119, he can pip you from 800 doing every reversal in the book & he has an outstanding record in another game, 250 kills with no deaths & top K/D ratio for 3 years. He does not play AH2 hard core, so I don’t want to get any nonsense.

P.S What happened to Pellik, I remember we had witch hunts for that guy ! Lol great fun !

Also, I don’t know why Sniper is in there, he won’t even DA/TA me. FYI, inside joke. :rofl

I don't think his name has been mentioned so here goes.
IMHO one of the best pilots out there has to be Nomak.
Not only does he have superb piloting skills . His teaching skills are just as sharp.
So , Nomak if your still out there

Wilbuz

The rest of the list is full of  shade accts, possers, cherrypickers and a few just plain good folks that didn't make my top 10 list.  :)

BTW Yucca should have been on that list, MAN that guy handed my my head so fast last time I fought him.

There are many great pilots out there that people aren't familiar with.  Such as bigmax, kappa, lazer, wetrat, nomde, the list goes on and on.  As far as MA goes you have to watch out for all the experienced players listed.  Basically when two good pilots meet in MA it doesnt really show skill, it's mostly who has the element of suprise.  The BEST pilots DONT UNDERESTIMATE THEIR ENEMY.  And in my experience the players with the most scucess in MA dont neccesarily have great success against a weaker MA player in the DA.  In MA it's all about element of suprise and judging siutations.  So IMO there are 2 different breeds of pilots :P

And i dont wanna be a great pilot!  I wanna be the best jug pilot! MUAHAHAHAHHA

Have you and lefty dueled much? He scares the crap outta me in the Jug, Ammo and Sancho were pretty handy with them too, but I'd give the nod to lefty on that score.

I agree with the part of Yucca's post that I edited out too. Scoring well or even doing well in the MA is not a good indication of absolute skill. I do fairly well in the MA but am dead meat in the DA.

I've killed everyone listed at least once, which has more do with with luck or an advantageous situation than skill, and teh war has nothing whatsoever to do with it. Since I'm possibly the only pilot worse than drex, having beaten me isn't much to pound one's chest over.

Same for me.  Which is why "making a list" is pointless in the first place, hence my initial post hub.   Hell, I've been a friend of Bodhi since his days with the Flying Circus.  I've conversed with him when he moved from NC, and settled to Colorado.  Which is why my most memorable sortie would have to be getting him and Levi within 20 seconds (no HO).   I've always enjoyed flying with and around the BK's.   But some have at times been jerks to me, which is fine.   They've cleared me, and I've cleared them.

lol yucca, anyone who spent a decent amount of time flying with mane (anyone from AoM, or koth regulars) can tell you that it's blumanekittyTMP. To top that off, before I took a break towards the end of the summer, he was telling me that he was gonna change his name. When I came back, mane was gone, and this "chick" (ROFLOL) named blukitty flew EXACTLY like mane. HMMM... lol :p I don't care what name he flies under... I do think it's pretty creepy that he's running a voice synth, tho. And your denial is just :eek:

Hi all:
Just only my opinion but to me, one of the best pilots are MANDOBLE, if you have had the oportunity to fly with him, you will get impressed how is his accuracy at gunnery, shot to get the kill. Don't mind the plane he flys, he will catch you as in a photograph, and it is very dificult catch him out of situation.
Not the better but one of the best for sure.

bleh bleh bleh.......i said it

honest truth is its hard to know who is a best stick...many guys have advantages over others...views...pedals...lar ge screens..etc

also the way you are forced to fly (or choose) dictates your abilities...ghi may be as good as anyone for base defense and knocking guys down as an example...doubt mane would do as well in that scenario...

also dont think da truly dictates best pilot... for most first series of moves is choreagraphed like chess and it gives them the adv.  KOTH is a better way so more of you should show up and have fun...kitty very dangerous in there as is danodano.

If you can learn to fight against kitty's overshoot manuever your all set to beat her.  That overshoot manuever is very nice but if in a mob its hard as she blows all her to overshoot 1 and another can come down to pick when she is roped.  Id love to learn that manuever but I have figured out how to fight against it so it doesnt work all that well against me unless Im flying stupid that night.  Just watch it though if you kill her, 5 min later she revege kills you.  She will come out of nowhere just to hunt you down and knock your plane out of the sky.

Dano asked me to the DA once. Ask him how it went. My only "surprise" was that he was average, and not a complete newbie as I had suspected. And I land more 109K kills than anyone. So what? Who cares? I could auger every time I run out of ammo instead of landing (which I do if the flight is excessively long), and I wouldn't be any worse in it. Well... I might not be as good at belly landing, or landing at V bases.

I have not been killed by one person on these list's in a long time. I think everyone that looks at the BBS has a big mouth on 200 must be good. Take a look at your list alot of those pilots dont fly that much anymore. Our i could say they are not in main that much.

Wetrat what you said about Dano i am sorry to say is not tru in main. He can kill fast and i would be more scared having him in my area just because i know that he is a good stick and will fight you to the end.

Funny that everyone has these guys on their list when i dont see them at all. Put some guys that do fly more than 3 hours a month.

What about

Elevenk he was the best stick i have ever been to the DA with "Mr ice" make a mistake and its over.

Kermit has great skills and i love to fight him.

Bullz in his high a20 will be a good kill if you can beat him

Sniper is spit god!

Shawk is a great stick but i can beat him in the da but in main he will kill me

Jb42 i have respect for and has killed me in the past and is a great kill

Their are more but i do love to hunt down kermit and 42 (:


The only person that really make me mad not because he is a loud mouth but has out flown me is Levi and his is a good sport.

Funny that everyone has these guys on their list when i dont see them at all. Put some guys that do fly more than 3 hours a month.

What about

Elevenk he was the best stick i have ever been to the DA with "Mr ice" make a mistake and its over.

Kermit has great skills and i love to fight him.

Bullz in his high a20 will be a good kill if you can beat him

Sniper is spit god!

Shawk is a great stick but i can beat him in the da but in main he will kill me

Jb42 i have respect for and has killed me in the past and is a great kill

Their are more but i do love to hunt down kermit and 42 (:


The only person that really make me mad not because he is a loud mouth but has out flown me is Levi and his is a good sport.
I've snuffed dano more than a few times in the MA (and koth)... just ask him ;) He's decent, and a good guy, don't get me wrong, but he isn't on the same level as the better sticks in here. But I think he's fairly new, so he'll probably get there if he keeps at it.

Now, for your benefit, I uploaded a film (http://www.michaelking.ca/films/Ki84-dano.rar) of one such encounter with dano. Don't worry, it won't keep you occupied long. Only a minute or so long.

Half of being good is knowing you're good... But not being cocky about it at the same time. Basicly, just having fun.

BluKitty/ManeTMP
Levi
nathBDP (nath was mime right?)

my top 3 in no particular order.  Of all the people I have dueled/fought 1 on 1 repeatedly, those three were the toughest fights for me.  

next batch would be (also in no particular order)

Sniper
Yucca
WETRAT
XtremJ
Shane

with nods to stang, creton, Delirium, wilbuz, wadke, and a couple others that I can't place right now, sorry it's late.  All of 'em great sticks.

USED to have wldthing and fester up there as well.  

Not fought drex that I recall, so can't comment on 'em.

Took one round in BluKitty's 1st KOTH to spot it was ManeTMP.  Wasn't just the flying (which was obviously ManeTMP's fighting style), but Mane always hung out in the same area at the start of the fight's, at a certain alt.  Was a dead give away when BluKitty did the same.

(btw wetrat, let's da soon.  was fun.  I was finally getting the hang of ya' on the last 3-4 fights. GREAT fun!!)

Drex....  I used to watch him take a P-47 or an F6F and fly around low and slow, a magnet for dweebs... Few of which survived for more than 15 seconds after they attacked him, even in pairs or small groups.

Over the years, I've had some long, good fights with Shane. A few years ago I was flying in the Combat Theater. Shane was on the opposing side doing his motor-yap routine. Drex and Leviathn were with us in a group that headed over to the nearest enemy base.  We engaged about an equal number and killed all but one. That one was Shane. Drex dropped down low and Shane took the bait. As Shane bored in, Drex went this way, Shane went that way...Drex went this way and Shane went boom.... Maybe 10 seconds elapsed.

Early this month, I flew a series of duels with a fellow of superior skills. I had never seen his handle before or since and he was as good or better than anyone I have fought 1v1. I could at least match him and usually beat him on the initial reverse. However, after several head to head passes, he always managed to retain a bit more E than I was keeping. It was barely noticable. But, after several minutes, he began to show enough of an edge in E that I was forced to break out and extend or go for a high-risk shot, often getting pinged up some in the process.

Our initial duel was predicated on him playing the n00b.. I had a P-38G, he had a L model. Almost immediately, he sent a check 6 and nosed over to gain speed. At that point I realized that I had a ringer in shades.

I had no trouble reversing faster, but he immediately took the fighter vertical when he saw that the G was a better turner. From that point, all I could do was keep my lift vector on him, and even though I could gain angles, I could not get the nose high enough for a shot. All the while, my E state is degrading faster than his as  the G model simply lacks the suds to compete for very long in a climbing fight against the L.

Eventually, I had to hammerhead reverse out and try to recover some speed... But he was on me quickly and all I could do was evade and give him the worst angles I could manage. I grabbed a P-38L and we went at it again.

We later switched to the P-51D. The resulting fights were very close over the first several minutes, no one getting a significant advantage via maneuvering. But, as I mentioned earlier, the other Mustang seemed to be holding E ever-so slightly better than mine. I could see that the fight was edging his way, so I took chances to get a shot in while I could still get an angle. Invariably, doing this burned off a lot of speed, so that if I missed, I would be in trouble real quick. Once I was dead slow, the fight was essentially over.

Afterwards, we discussed the fights and the fellow pointed out something I never noticed before. He saw an instability in my plane while we maneuvered. He thought that was killing my E. He asked what Stick I was using. I told him that I had just switched to all CH Products gear, FighterStick, Pro throttle and Pro pedals. He asked about my slider settings. I told him that I hadn't changed them from my previous X-45 set-up. There, he concluded, was at least part of the problem.

First, he told me that it usually takes two to three months to master the CH gear and find the optimal settings.

Second, he advised me try differnt slider settings and pay particular attention to adding some damping.

We had a nice conversation and I discovered that this fellow has been flying this type of sim for many years, probably dating back to AW DOS. He also knew Dale (Hitech) for a long time. I didn't press him for his identity, if he wanted that known, he would have told me. As far as I can tell, the handle he used is already changed... or cancelled.

Anyway, I filmed one of the fights and watching it carefully, I was able to recognize the instability he referred to. I took his advice and reconfigured my sliders and set my damping higher in both roll and pitch axes. Finding a dueling buddy of mine, we flew several fights while I ran film. The difference was subtle, but I found that I was, in fact, retaining more speed. The film confirmed this... the previously seen instability was gone.

Like any other thing, getting better at something falls under the rule of diminishing returns. As you reach the limits of your ability and that of your hardware, very minor improvements usually require a great deal of work, thought and practice.

I don't who this guy was/is, but I owe him a debt of gratitude for his assitance and keen eye. His advice circumvented the rule of diminishing returns for me.

There's little doubt he one of the best I've encountered in Aces High, and I've tangled with the best of them.

He was a gentleman throughout the fights, but got a bit upset when I beat him on the reverse with the P-38L and hosed him before he could get his nose around. He complained of being HO'd, but on my FE I was a good 20-30 degrees off his nose when I fired. Well, rather than argue, I eased off a bit on the initial reverse and tried to beat him in a sustained fight, and that proved to a lot more difficult as this guy was very, very good.

Well, who ever he is, a big to him for the duels and his valuable advice.

My regards,

Widewing

Interesting ... that's the second or third time in a week I've heard someone talk about stick settings making such a big difference. The low-speed instability is what keeps me from pushing it in the "short game" ... planes just flop over on me while the guy I'm after does these mid-air 180's without a problem.

All that being said, I suspect there are a lot of returning veterans who have such pilot skills, 10+ years of accumulated SA and experience, but not the time to play enough to become a household name.

I don't care that you don't care that I don't care. I don't mind that you don't mind that I don't matter. I am the best pilot in the universe & am still the worst one on the internet!

 I am also the toughest guy on earth - the most handsome - the funniest - the most humble - the most charitable - the richest - the poorest - I've never met anyone from Aces High or HTC - I don't care if I ever meet anyone from Aces High or HTC - I drink - I cuss - I have no honor while playing stupid time & money wasting games on the internet - I can spell 99% of the english language correctly without checking a reference source - I never use infantile internet slang - I love my wife & children - I love my dog - I love my Saitek - I love my country - I love my weapon collection -  & I have two things no one else seems to have; the ability to recognize people who just want their ego fed; & the ability to recognize sarcasm.


 There,I feel better if only because I made myself smile.

Oh, I only have one account - my name here & there is Brenjen - look me up in the Main; I'm always a Knight. I would look forward to any civil exchange by P.M. or 200 after you kill me to discuss what I did wrong. All you have to do is catch me when I am in the air & not in a panzer or a gun which is not very often.

If you can learn to fight against kitty's overshoot manuever your all set to beat her. That overshoot manuever is very nice but if in a mob its hard as she blows all her to overshoot 1 and another can come down to pick when she is roped. Id love to learn that manuever but I have figured out how to fight against it so it doesnt work all that well against me unless Im flying stupid that night. Just watch it though if you kill her, 5 min later she revege kills you. She will come out of nowhere just to hunt you down and knock your plane out of the sky.
LOL the overshoot manuever was the tell that BK was mane.  Every time I ran into mane that was all he did, as soon as he started it you knew it was him.  It's hysterical that he is parading around as a girl now.  Definately weird to say the least, Not that there is anyfhign wrong with that.

Blu is not a BK shades.  BluKitty is ManeTMP in shades.  ManeTMP is a guy.  BluKitty is a guy pretending to be a girl.

There's really nothing inherently wrong about that, though using voice altering software to lead on others crosses a number of lines.  I even like ManeTMP, and I think he's fun to fight, but enough with the silly shades games already.

Anyone remember "Specs"?  Was around in AH1, flew the D11 all the time, probably the best I've seen in it.  AH2 came out and he disapeared.  

For the rest of this thread, I have seen some posts alluding to score, and who lands how many kills in such and such a plane.  To those folks who put their lists together with that criteria, it should really be comprised of the people, who after the fight is over, while you are decending in your chute, you ask yourself "How'd they do that?".  90% of the time, the best pilots in this game don't land kills, because it doesn't matter to them.  But when they die, they have 0 ammo, and 7+ scalps under their wings.  :aok

OK does it really matter in the end?  Being an AH god and a dollar might get you a can of coke :)

The key to the kingdom as far as I'm concerned is as long as I'm having fun, who the heck cares if I'm the best ever.  

The best pilots in the game as far as I'm concerned are those who can seperate the ego from the game and recognize it for what it is supposed to be...a big kids way of pretending we're combat pilots without any of the risk.

The guys I feel sorry for are the ones who think any of this matters and burst a blood vessel worrying about how they should never ever be shot down and if they are, the other guy cheated, warped, pulled the cord, stick stirred or whatever.

Just like when we were kids, we still get killed, count to 20 and go back up.  It's all good cause no one is dying and the planes are free :)

Leviathn was a shades of Calamari which was a shades of DMF, my original game handle.  However, after four years I think it's safe to say that I'm going to stick with this one.  As for the rest of the squad, I don't pay for their accounts and thus can't speak for them.  I can say that only one squadmate is in shades right now, and he's changing his handle back this week.  He's not taking estrogen injections though.

fair comments, but explain to me what damage 'pretending' to be female could do?


surely the only victims will be testosterone fueled desperates?

On a personal level, leading friends and squadmates on is pretty low if, in fact, BluKitty is ManeTMP (and I think that evidence is abundant).  Who knows, maybe there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for all of it.

The horny Channel 200 warriors pretty much get everything they deserve though.  :)

Palli

List is sorted by number of sorties, so the first position doesn't mean the best.

I have no idea who are they, with most of them I have never met in MA. It is just pure statistics.

May be there are more pilots who should be in this list but if they are not in top 100 I don't know their flight IDs.

Now tell me WHO ARE ALL THAT PEOPLE?

Ok Few Things.
I dont know who ManeTMP is/was im still fairly new to MA and these msg boards.
but as for blukitty being someone pretending to be a female or whatever is going on.. erm who cares. just let them play the   G.A.M.E   im not one of your prodigy MA pilots i get raped in 1v1's and get ganged i get hoed the works but its all in the name of good fun...inst it? I've flown with Blu and the 56th aaannd ive flown against them. ive spoken to blu on vox.. sounds female to me.. oh! if anyone can find a voice synth for download on the internet.. SUPER!! show me where.. thats hours of entertainment right there. :D
my personal choices for best sticks are in no particular order and are only that way because of what times i get to fly and alot to do with the fact i think i last about 30secs with the guys. Seeing as im from Australia and its night time while most of you blokes are sleeping or just waking up. it limits the vastness of my encounters.

YUCCA
WMLute
Wilbuz
Kermit  <--- You and YUCCA are bastages together
BluKitty
BatfinkV
Creton
Defcon4 <-- although that account got deleted by HTC its now Defcon0

Gorkle3 <-- with ftJR by his side... lookout!
Bruv119
Kazaa

sure there are plenty of others but its 2am and i cant think to well at the moment. I'm sure people will have different views on that list. and if the current progress of this thread is any indication to go by wetrat will say they all suck and he is king.. want a medal or a chest to pin it on? :p :aok

well anyway thats my 2c worth....for now ;)

Unbelievably awesome best describes him in a Jug.

Another one from the good 'ole days ... IceMAW ... one of the finest sticks around and a great guy to boot. Doesn't fly much these days (got married) ... but when he does fly and scrapes some of the rust off ... he can beat anybody listed here with ease ... don't get me wrong ... he can be beaten too, just like anybody else ... but it ain't an easy task.

Nah, I just flew with great wingmen.  The top sticks always owned me, and Drex well... hands down the best Jug pilot I've ever been smoked by.  The only thing I really did well is do pretty well in under-rated planes.  I was pretty good at hiding my E state and then burning it to kill ya if you under estimated me.  I'm not a natural, I'm just pretty good at the E game and fly with some discipline.  Well that, and Pigs on my wing.  Oink! Oink!  To War!

Natural sticks... Squid, Mili, Vila... Squid is the most natural stick ever.  Jinx was an amazing E fighter.  Smut taught me how good the F6F is.  Pigs taught me how to have fun and kick butt.

Anybody know of a good compact stick I can travel with?  I think I can run this thing on my laptop, and I've a hankering to fly something with WAY too many .50's.

He's had a number of handles, always containing the word "left" to some degree or another. He's the guy I mentioned back on page 3 somewhere when the discussion turned to Jugs. I don't know if he could take drex or not, but it would be close in a P47x.

Heya lefty !

Whatever happened to those guys? I sat next to Mili at the convention in 1997 (Houston), he was a hoot. He flew with his face about 6 inches from the screen and his speakers up at deafening levels, probably to drown out the stream of obscenities he hurled at his virtual oponents (who could not hear anything, long before vox). He had to stop to wipe the spittle off his screen from time to time too.

Vila was a class-act in every since, a true gentleman, and his ever present wingman Worr as well. Haven't seen those guys since shortly after ICI sold WB to crazy-Bill or whoever that jackarse was.

Let me assure you, I can't take Drex.  I may have nailed him once or twice, but he basically would eat my lunch.  We went at each other in Jugs more than once, and he kills me 3-1 easy.  Drex is the master of making you overshoot, and I never could quite roll a Jug around as well as he can at low speed, let alone shoot as well.  My specialty has always been E fighting and using my head, not my piloting skills.  There is a reason I fly a jug you know.  Actually there are 8 of them, and the huge piles of ammo that go with those reasons. :aok   Hint:  It's not because I'm a good shot.  Heh.

BTW, my handle always contained "leph", short for "Lephturn" back when we only got 4 letters.  I've been around since Warbirds, just after beta.  I was recruited by Worr to the Pigs ,and spent quite a while as a trainer in AH.  Anyway... good times. :)  I just have to grab me a stick I can drag around with my laptop (I travel for work) and I'll log back in and try out my trusty Jug again.  TnB sub-dweebs (TM-Smut) beware!

Now I have to scrabble around and find my old stick setups, gunsights, and view sets... anybody have a good place to grab some gunsights?

I haven't heard from Mili for a while.  Squid got hasn't flown for a long time, but I ping him in email from time to time.  Worr was around on and off, even in some different squads since I've flown I believe.  Vila is about now and again.  Many of us are still in touch via our email list.  XX, Ichi, Duke, Supe, Roamer, Vila, Smut, Snak, and of course Dr. Gonzo.  I know I'm missing some folks... but many of us are still in touch.  Being a Pig is bigger than any one game. :)

Also badboy.. didnt know what it was i could not beat this guy.. He exploited some weakness or something that i didnt know about (still dont know).. And he's too much of an arnold to let me know what it was.. :furious

My favorites that i encountered would be Lev, Nomak, Morph, Fester, Wldthing, Icemaw, BigMax, Lazs.. Alot of the old school bk's were great sticks.. most of the new ones are wannabe's :P .. Meeting slapshot down on the deck was always fun too.. And also cant forget my ****bag friend wax.. Alot dont know this cause of his dweeb capture teh flag ways but he's a good stick too.. He'll see the light some day.. :D

I'm not sure if he flies anymore, but my vote would be for Shane.  I went up against him several times, and my flying had to be perfect in order to not get shot.  

One of the few times that I did manage to get him, I had jumped his P-47D40 in my P-47D11.  We were in a scissor stall fight at 1000 feet, rolling canopy to canopy.  This dude actually managed to start getting behind me, but with the ocean filling our windscreens, we both went to war emergency power (wep) and hauled back on the sticks.  His plane slammed into the water, while ground effect cushioned mine enough to recover.
