My history with Aces High dates back to 2001, and much of that time has been spent using a CH Fighterstick, USB Throttle and CH Peds. While the gear's stood the test of time, the pots on the j-stick and peds were most likely in need of replacement. A few weeks ago I noticed a post in the forum classifieds by Ramesis, who was giving away his clamp-on HOTAS mounts. The next day he adds on, "I'll up the ante and include the Warthog HOTAS if you pay S&H" I figured he was kidding but PM'd him just in case he wasn't. Turns out HE WASN'T kidding.
Due to medical issues, Ramesis wasn't able to handle the rigors of AH and decided to hang up his guns. He friggin GAVE me the Thrustmaster Warthog throttle, joystick and a set of Saitek peds, only asking for reimbursement for shipping costs. I offered him some money for a night on the town but he refused.
I wish to offer a public THANK YOU for your generosity, Ramesis. :salute Time and again this community goes the extra mile for fellow players.

:salute Ramesis. Class act.

Class act indeed!
Once upon a time I was getting pretty serious about flying, decided not to go the Lazer route, and used an Xbox controller. flew for about 6 months like that, met a guy named 69Fiat or Creton, who then kinda took me and sent me the very same track IR i still use today, and an old LOGI joystick. flew on that for about two years. This game is full of awesome people like that.

Dangit, RotBaron, you had to pull me into the thread! LOL
Ramesis was awesome from my encounters with him.
I am always glad to help out anyone if I can. Hope that stick is working out well for you.

Sorry for letting everyone know if you didn’t want to be identified. I hope the LOL means you’re not upset.
The stick does work great. Thank you sir!
I’ve been in a GV way more than I used to be, my flying skills are practically gone and as most experience it takes a lot of effort to get them back. Been meaning to get back in the G-14 when I have more time.
:salute

Not offended in the least, sir.
I had forgotten that I sent it to you to be honest. Glad it is doing what you need it to do. I've debated coming back to the game, but my work schedule keeps me away from home so much I can't justify it.
I satisfy my old AH urges by reading the BBS and trying to keep up with what is going on in game. Same old same old for the most part.
Glad to see the old and new names and faces still here.

The G-14 is really the only bird I fly.. Occasional K-4 or 109 variant. If you ever want to wing up, or duel let me know. I'm not the best but I've been in the 109's since day one. <S>

VFlying :D

Another hats off and a big SALUTE to Pots n Pans. My Saitek had view buttons that no longer worked. When seeking guidance on a replace this fine gentleman offered to send me a spare he had. Also this fine gentleman refused to take any reimbursement even for shipping. Mr Pots :salute
