Just a quandary, what was your best fight/personal achievement in game for the last year? Film would be a plus....but I suck at editing, so wont hold it against those without film back-up :cheers: My best fight: was jumping what I believed to be a un wary 109 on the deck in my Spit. OOPS, was Trogdor :uhoh He baited me right in too, BASTAGE :furious I got first hits at second turn but his throttle work and flaps got the best of me....after a 3 minute stall fight on the deck. All the comfort I can get from that...at least it wasnt Lzbnseagul! :devil I dont think I have ever had a fight like that in my 3 YEARS in AH! I was sweating and hyper ventilating on film...YES part of reason I didnt post film :devil We had several fights over this past year and win or loose, Trog was always a class act. Even the few that were interrupted by others :salute It was a close race, as to favorite experience :cheers: The Big Week Scenario and The Longest Day(EPIC) rank right up there. I didnt get to fly with the squad I signed up for in The Longest Day scenario, but Dutch and Weiser adopted me into the fold! Was a great day spent(almost literally :rock) Big salute to the few of you that I was able to share some Technology for game play with. It was an TRUE HONOR that you allowed me to do that :salute Being able to invest in game play was a HUGE morale boost for me this year! I thank you guys for that :cheers: On second thought I may need to bump Big Week up a bit on my list? Was the last time I got to fly with Pipz. :cry

For me the best day in AH was definitely flying with you on my wing at The Hardest Day scenario. It was a a blast and a honnor to spend the 12 hour with you. :airplane: :salute

I got a couple of months of Melee flying time in this year, that was the best for me. I got to meet a lot of very nice people and fly with/against them.
:airplane:
:airplane:
Also, becoming a CM and learning to make terrains was pretty high up there too. :cheers:

Getting the VR headset put the game at a new level.

Getting my 200th FSO kill back in April. :airplane:

I discovered the magic of turning off tracers.

When the new FM2 art was introduced, I flew it as my "main ride" for that tour. Since then, I've picked other planes that I haven't flown much to be my main ride for a tour -- 190A-5, 109F-4, La-5FN, and now the Typhoon Mk I. Not always good for my k/d, but a fun way to learn new stuff. :D

16 kills in a spit 16. I had a solo base cap going with 4 guys upping in a steady flow. Working the backside of the base out of ack range and their was only one guy that had a clue not to follow me up in a climb. After 8 kills i really started to aim for the single ping pilot shot. Ran out of ammo with plenty of fuel only to be blow out of the sky from a 4k 88 when i was rtb and out of harms way.
I did this back in the day and landed it but i never thought i could have repeated it in ah3. Only other goal i have to beat this year is my 54 kills in a tempest but with hitech change to the wep at rearms that probably will not happen.

Leading 601 during the 12 hour BOB, was truly epic :cheers:

Made a cool gun site for my tank killer Stuka.
I really enjoy kerplunking tanks all day.

Had a great 2017, upgraded to a new smokin' PC, got into VR thanks to some dear friends. Hosted a 12 hour Battle of Britain Scenario, flew 30+ FSO frames with my friends and designed a few FSO's for the community. Hosted the Combat Challenges and even ran a couple KOTHS and flew in my first one too.
Hoping I get to do the same this year. <S>

Well i think we only managed to get the most kills is because we worked so well together with the 601 squadron. We should fly together more often. Big salute to you BFOOT1 <S>

Thanks Dutch! We should fly together more indeed. Our squadrons worked very well together, to literal perfection for what we were asked to do. :salute
I’ll be flying 109’s this go around :cheers:

Most certainly VR.. totally amazing experience.

ABSOLUTELY! It was great, getting to know you! Wish that you were State Side and the shipping costs were cheaper! I would have definitely hooked you up with VR! You were a GREAT fight every time I ran into you! Even though I think the record is like 6 to 1? Did pop you a few times in my Wirb, so I might be adding those kills to my tallies :rofl
