Title: I Quit
Post by: BaldEagl on May 01, 2007, 12:48:22 PM
In another post yesterday FBPlmmr pointed out that the F6F-5 didn't have, and needed, cup holders.  I've spent the past 20 hours or so considering this and realized that AHII is absolutely DEVOID of cup holders!  A virtual cup-holder vacume!

C'mon HT... fix this... you are losing people fast here.

If not remedied in a reasonable length of time I will vote with my wallet.  I will quit... but not quite yet... I'll give you a chance... like a month... no... two... or... maybe longer... maybe even a year... or...

I have handle bar tassels on the stick in my 109. They go with my assless leather chaps rather nicely.

Okay.  Here's how to activate your cup holder.  Go to the desktop of your PC & click on 'My Computer'.  Right click on your DVD/CD-ROM drive & select Eject.  There you have it.  Your very own cupholder.  :aok

..all i wanted was the leopard skin seat covers, the dashboard gremlin with the pointy blue hair, and a "Club" (tm) for when I have to park the plane outside the LTAR den....


but I'm not quitting anyway!

Could it possibly be that I have not yet had a chance to do the detailed Annalis needed for putting the cup holders in the F6F and let alone all the envy of the other plane fliers it would cause?
Title: I Quit
Post by: Krusty on May 01, 2007, 02:29:07 PM
But Hitech, couldn't you just modularize the code, and plug that module into every plane that historically had a cupholder? Wouldn't that be the easiest solution? :confused:

You can go to practically any automotive store and buy the things that clip into the window to act as a cupholder.  How hard would it be to draw one of those in there?  Might as well include the matching ash holder on the other side for our smoking friends.

Point out to me just one other credible source that says the F6F-5 had cup holders.  You can't, because there isn't any.  When you said that there were, you were lying through your teeth.  

Now the F6F-3, OK, that had cup holders.  But not the -5.  Frankly, if HTC put cup holders in the F6F-5, this game would hold little interest for me.

WHAT!!!!CUP HOLDERS!!!! HTC already thought of this an decided that in a real dog fight reachin for a drink is all too un neccesary, instead there is a tube which injects cherry vanilla DP directly into ur ***. except in the LA-7 the tube is more like a PVC pipe an it actually serves no purpose.

one step ahead of ya

Cup holders?

While where IN on this subject, a french fry holder and a metal slide for my cell phone would be nice.

A two meter magnet-mount antenna so I could use my 147 mHz ham tranciever would be nice as well.

Given any thought to roomier back seats to jeeps for when I bring a hot young date along?

I hope I am not giving away any squad secrets when I say the "Club"(tm) has been no problem for us since LTARmedc brought home a "Jaws of Life" (not tm) from work.

But, you are free to try . . .

Cupholders?  Bad Idea.  They are prown to braking while in flight.

As you can see, even in modern aircraft, they are a bad idea.  Just don't put your drink down.
