I meant by rearming in a single bomber as well. :airplane:
My 76300 and 65+k score in Lancs was a no rearm, one long 100% fuel round trip around the map. 14x1k bombs, 14 towns hit. Think I spent over 4 hours in those flights if I remember correctly. Not something I have ever bothered to try again, now I like to shoot down bombers instead.

And that is how multiple account babies are made…

With great power comes great responsibility. Don’t be like the shade cheaters. You use power for good!

Decades of devaluing the dollar..with trillion dollar overspending annually by everyone in power is expediting the decline imo..

Hit it with another razor cut today..

Eagler

Oh ya,.. that's somewhat true. But they aren't spending it on you anymore. Which is worse.

Oil is a big source of energy. Cut the price in half and those things dependent on that energy will be less costly. Very significantly in some cases. Isn't that obvious?

Ok true enough, IF you cut gas in half.....but that's not where we are. Fuel will not effect tariffs on beef, aluminum (for cans) or produce. They cut tariffs on coffee and some produce weeks ago, I'm still paying 100% markup on it.

Now, if gas dropped to say $1.50,.. gitty up! But that would just be shipping. It's just not going to get there. And if it does, I'll buy everyone here dinner.

My electricity went up 20%, and no it did not come down, they don't want to lower it, they have an approved gouge going. My state literally approved the hike.

Once you jack prices up,... too much seems like a break, and they don't want to bring them down unless you stop buying it. Supply and demand dictates all.

Remember, most shipping runs on diesel, not gas.
Gasoline will not turn this economy around.

Nothing more I'd like than to be wrong on these subjects. Instincts, odds, and greedy human nature snuffs that.

Well, its better than lost Joe's economy.But fuel prices affect everything.  :aok

Ok lets not mention taco's 2019-2020 economy, that would really mess up a concept, but ya I get your point. But IMO, that's not enough to sway any big price change. It will get you there cheaper to still pay high is all I see. If they really wanted to make a huge advance it would be removing beef tarrifs and bringing beef down.....you don't eat gas. <shrug>

You think they will pass on shipping breaks to you when they are suffering tariff loses? MAYBE

I never bothered to look into these threads, because I never had any interest in the score system and who was best in this or that.. Mostly because I always thought people that get their names in these lists are people that only play it safe, timid, run from fights, use picking tactics or in some way or form game the game to get their high score. So what I try to do is sabotage my own score by getting into all sorts of bad situations, dying more than I land, never use attack mode for deacking, only fly one plane as long as ENY allows it.. etc.. But I have fun, and that has been my drive all these years. I fly to have fun, if I don't have fun I log. Simple as that. And I rarely ever look into this forum because I am not really a forum guy, I just like to play the game.

But here I am, scrolling, reading random posts. And then I find my name listed as a ranked pilot?! Not just that, but as a tour top ranked Jug M pilot?!? Wtf?? How did that happen?


Same here.
Except I horrify the bbs at times.

Stiff competition is good for any game, or they just get bored and go home. It drives all games to stay alive, including sports.

I might have been that a life time ago, but that's just not my thing these years. I don't get enough time in to get on any chart anyway, so fun dictates time on.

Good for you/them
