How come you don't post on info for WW1?  Like how come the anometer is mounted in the wrong place? Seeing as how the way it is mounted in AH you would be constantly getting incorrect airspeed, due to prop wash.

Covering everything from aviation, WWII history, and air combat maneuvering to computer hardware, IT, and psychology—that’s a serious depth of expertise.

What does a flashing red light in the segmented circle mean? 

What does the dot command “.shanghai” mean? 

What is a “phase angle”.

I jumped right over the rudiments for the advanced stuff but often make a mistake on the basics to this day.   

It’s up to us to instill the desire to gain skills in kids coming up because we don’t have advertisements to do it for us.

I’ve been in and out for 35 yrs. I make mistakes often and just a jack of all trades above master of none. I learn what I need to know at some point. I don’t think any one player is master of all. This game type is infinite.  It’s not like ya reach level 5 and just beat the game.

IMO, many things drive players to learn new skills and knowledge. Competition and banter is a driver. Why we have points, perks, rewarded for accomplishments. A ladder to build on. If vets want to draw in new generations they must be a little tolerant fir that to work. When we see banter on 200, the game is still working, smile. YKW was way too much.

HTC can’t afford $3m to advertise for a 3-10% return. WE are our own advertisement with word and videos outside the bubble. Share the best vids that best represent the game often.
Most common comment “ is that game still running?”

There is nothing wrong with this game. Its basically complete with very few bugs. We’ve just been flying under the radar, best kept secret of the genre.

Ad Marketing to the list.

I remember Levi (+Dead, DeadF, +Todd, Uber, Levi, +Levi in AW) would cleanup a furball, see no enemies left and just auger. Didn't land a kill for an entire campaign. He felt landing and points were a distraction as the fight is what it's all about. What better way to get back to the fight? I always admired that. I think one of his old BK squadmates has that in his sig.....along with a misspelling of the town he lives in <G>.

I remember back in the day it seemed like there was always a squeaker asking on range, "How Do I Land?"  :joystick:
