SPLASH THE ZEROS
:joystick:
-
BUTTERFLIES!!!!!
oh yeah, almost forgot, with freaking lazerbeams!!!!!!
-
Might be back from College Station by Saturday night.
My guess is Snoopy on his doghouse with a GAU-8.
-
Dunno but HT had an evil looking grin on his face when the subject came up. :)
Then we got into a "remember this" evil con mission session. Good stuff, they've had some real winners.
-
flying hotdogs with unlimited ammo mini-guns?
-
What ever it is I want pics and films!

Beagle on Doghouse: Pray.

Pardon a morbidly stupid question, but where does the evil con take place, one of the SEAs? Or does it happen in the Main? For some reason I don't think I've ever been around for an evil con mission.

Think it can happen anywhere but usually in the MAs. Think there was one where the GVs were supped up as well, as there were Shermans moving like a JEEP and firing like AA.
FYI, if you look over your shoulder and see something strange, i.e. Jack-o-Lantern or Biplane with a jet pack or Snoopy chasing you down, you are there. :rock :pray :salute

Thanks guys, sounds like fun.

This is my first year at Aces High so I knw NOTHING. Do only convention atendees get the special aircraft? Is there any type of announcement in the arena beforehand?
-
no announcement, it just happens!
-
Yes, and sort of....... No announcement, but you'll know it on 200.

Best thing to do is locate one of the HTC staff or someone you know who is at the con, switch to the country they are one, and wait for the magic to happen. At first only people at the con are allowed to fly the plane but after the first hour or so everyone can fly it. You have to figure out which base its allowed from then type in the .plane ## to actually get it.
-
B-29 with nukes and laser beams!! :bolt:
-
I'm going to pwn the mission with a jet. HiTech will be forced to eject me from the arena.
-
what time does the evil mission usually occour? Will be at the Wings Over Houston airshow but will get on if it's late in the evening type of deal.
-
Snoopy in 163's with friggin laser beams.
-
Don't forget the HiTech PSA:
Do not up a 262 and expect to land it.

You mean the sharks will be strapped to the wingtips with the fricken laser beams? :salute
-
I think they need to pop on earlier and give us euros right royal con spanking with there snoopys and freaking laser beam jeeps

The special ride is only granted to those folks who attend the Con. It is never announced.
When I went to the WarBirds con back in 2000, were given Flying Saucers with super-lethal guns that had no ammo limit. Funny thing was, that Saucer could pull so much G that lots of us blacked out and augured. :lol

Usually for a sortie or two before the word slips out on how to make it display in the hangar for everyone.
-
Last year HiTech used Super Fokkers. It was a 2 sector flight to get where they were, til they opened 1 base for each country right near the action. I got like 33 perkies for killin 1 of those sweet lookin triplanes :devil
-
Don't forget the HiTech PSA:

Pffft.
That directly clashes with my PSA:
Don't up in the same sector as my jet and expect to live.
-
pew pews > taters
-

it may display, but still cant fly it.
I was able to get the sharks from 2008 to display in hangar, but never did see the superfokker in hangar.. had to look at it up close in film viewer..
-
I don't know where all of these "usually you get to fly it later" things come from. The only Evil Con Plane I've heard of getting released to the public at any point was the neutered RV-8.
At the WarBirds cons, you needed a thumb drive with a specific file on it to unlock it. Even if it was a token file, distributing it quickly would be a pain before it would get disabled. I would suppose the same goes for AH cons, if not done by checking if the client is behind whatever router the con is using.
-
:O Eitherway looking forward to it. I also remember the quote. "Don't expect to land your 262"
So a word to wise, perk planes when this goes down might prove, well expensive.
Grinning from ear to ear though. :t
-
I got to fly the superfokker last year. I do think it wasn't intended as it was shut down after about 30 minutes.
-
You guys are silly! It's going to be the B29 with nukes and 50mm cannons with ballistics equivalent to laser beams!!!!!! Not to mention that it'll outclimb a 163, outturn an A6M, and outroll a 190. :devil
-
What usually happens is the "Evil Con Mission" will start around 9-10 eastern, its right after one of the con events finishes up. Once it starts only those AT the con get the new toy. In years past it been flying PT boats, the 163 before it came out, sharks with "frikin" lazer beams, the RV8 with a gattlen gun, the super folker with rockets. After about an hour or so HTC lets the word out on what to type to get it and allows everyone a chance to play with it for a bit. Again, after an hour or so it gets turned back off.

as far as I've seen the last 2 years, the con plane is never opened up to non-con-goers. maybe they did that in previous years?
-
I flew the shark two years ago and didn't attend the con. Maybe I shouldn't have admitted to that. :bolt:
IIRC, that dot command was easy to guess. I wouldn't try again though, the con planes are for people who made the trip to enjoy.
-
I flew the Folker last year, was actually "winging" with Hitech... until he got shot down :D

Grizz you are a evil con mission. flying around with that gigantic swollen head of yours poking out of the cockpit never missing anything with a tater. :devil
-

Probably from personal experience. I flew the Fokker last year and was not at the con.
-
I have home coming I'm gonna miss this :cry

is this Dale warming up his Uber Siberian cooled computer :O

Same here, but I think everyone should be able to fly it. Even if its only for 20 mins. No reason to punish customers who couldn't travel thousands of miles, and spend hundreds of dollars. Cheers Con Crew :cheers:

Or why not reward those customers that DID take the time and pay hundreds of dollars to go to the con?

I thought thier reward was the single arena.

There's pics on other threads. Sadly, the mother ship does not show up on film. Dang cloaking device.
-
There are a few screenies of it. Will have to check my films as I was shot down while flying in it and my chute floated right through it. :salute
Just checked and it did not show at all on my film. Spent a better part of a minute floating through it in the chute too. :cheers:
-
Same pic I posted in the other thread but here is a Claw
