Title: Hiya from Rabbit
Post by: rabbit on November 19, 2001, 05:48:00 AM
Wow!

it has been a long time since i have posted, even read a flight sim board.

it is nice to see all of the old faces as well as the new ones.

i talked to an old Mac AW bud a few days back,  he said he was flyin AH so i thought i would check it out.

it it looks like  alot of fun ( like it was back in the old days. reading some of the posts and  checking out the FE  sorta makes me want to get  back up  there and have some fun .

well... i really didnt know what to post so i thought i would just chime in and see if some of the other mac aw folks  was flying here.

take care /0

Hey, welcome Rabbit. Do join AH: you'll not be dissapointed, I can guarantee you that.

It's an addiction, but a good one.

(not an AW'er myself, but thought it was a nice gesutre of you to introduce yourself. Something I miss from many of the new guys)

<S!>

Welcome Rabbit.  I'm not from any other sim but I do know you'll enjoy it here.  Grab your two free weeks and come on down...

it really seems like a fun FM. i wish i would have tried it sooner.

Truly it is.

These guys (HTC and Co.) do a great job.

It would be an honor to fly
against you once again!

im still going through a little self imposed flight school <g>


i should be up hunting   in my stang soon!!

i do have to say that this FM is  a bit more reasonable  for  virtual flight and combat. unlike  that Brand "W" sim <g>

btw ... what is an acceptable frame rate for  AH?  im getting only  about 16 to 32 fps off line. is this ok? or will if be a slide show ?

see ya up soon /0

ola DC!!! and DH    i heard that Q is now DQ i hope that doesnt give him  a complex <g,r,d> DQ could  mean many things in which  i will list if he responds to this  thread <G> jus funnin ya Q ill cya up soon and if ya could  send me yer email.

Uh.... Mac. <sigh> i  wish was using my mac.
 then i could be using my Ch stuff.

how ya been westy!!!

im using a stick i got at a yard sale on my PC. i was  sorta holding off  on a ch setup  for it until, i decided if i liked any of these other sims out there.

looks like it is time to get  back up to date.  i just hope that this place does not close up shop 6 months after i get new flight gear.  like Mac AW did.  :(

Welcome Rabbit .


Mustang ? <S> Come fly Bish , lots of pony pilots here .

Your fps a little slow for offline , going to take a hit in the MA , mine does . Worth the up grade , I just did it myself .

Really the 15 a month or 75 for 6 months is the "cheapest" part IMO   :)

take care
