So why is taking so damn long?

Oh yeah, I am trying to get VOR in as well.  That's got to be worth at least an Iron Cross 2nd class or something.  

Ok, I'll settle for a Warsteiner, der Koenig von Biers.

Dunno.  Ask Jester.  Can't wait to get back in the cockpit again.  I have been flying offline and finding that I need to relearn it again.  Thanks for the compliment Stream, .

Heh, I'd join you or the 3/JG Udet boys in a heartbeat, except I have a crappy stick that won't let me fly straight and level.

Oh, yeah, and I can't afford a sub :P

That sort of hinders me :)

crappy sticks oft don't work.

I Want something that WON'T break in a week, a month, a couple of years.

I've got a Wingman extreme right now, and the stick is in physically good condition, but electronically it's slightly fried. I move the stick in any one axis and all 4 axis spike horribly. Specifically the rudder and throttle, both vital!

I know all about the "german" part of the squadron, having read the JG 54 webpage and the previous squad's as well (JG 3).

I know y'all focus mostly on 109/190 work, but do you ever have a squad night where you learn to fly, say, the pony? The spit? Yeah I agree that it's cool to learn to fly the real planes the real way in the real manner (i.e. the entire squad using 109s, flying formation, etc), but do y'all ever do a "fun" night?

You know, so you don't always have to rely on the 109/190, no matter how well you fly 'em? :P


I was cruising around HTH with this 152. Took out a 15k alt P51 who kept yo-yo BNZing, and this one guy in his spit (probably a spitIX) just kept on me. I just outran him, turned one he broke, we converged, repeat 3 or 4 times, lol, he just never could catch me and never gave up. Was much fun.

He finally got me when I looped around to clear his tail (call me sentimental) of a 109 that had him dead to rights.

Who knew a 152 could catch fire as easy as a zero?!?!

Oh well, but the question before my rambling post still applies

No matter what you fly they make you wear a leather thong.
