The "Skeleton Crew" would like to thank one and all that we've flown with and against, for a most enjoyable time.

Some of us are leaving, others are staying so we will be present.
 

We Salute you!

   

I am staying, you guys gotta have someone easy to kill

Whats funny is...when CK came out, AW folks bad mouthed it to the max, saying it was gonna be a 'fly-by-night' thing, and AW would rule...funny how AW is looked at as an arcade game, and Warbirds as a serious sim...now, some guys that fly Warbirds are saying AH is gonna be a 'fly-by-night' thing, and WB's would rule..
Hehe, something tells me that those guys are burning a bridge they haven't crossed yet!

Yep, agw is scattered with insults of 'those AH dweebs' - oh brother.   In the end, competition can't be bad, and the online flight-sim gaming scene has never been more competitive. I think AH should do well when it shakes off the rough edges - still a way to go, but the speed it's moving at is impressive!

I'll probably be heading back to AH when the Typhoon appears, although I'd prefer to see what happens with the ground vehicles. No point having a Typhoon with no targets to vaporise

I read both front to back, and I haven't seen any of the type posts you guys are talking about

People may rip on AH the game, but I have yet to see anyone badmouth the AH developers or flyers.

now back the the original, nice, post.

It has been good flying AH, and I may join soon.  I just can't pass on the fun of the SL's and Historical Arena, and don't have time to do both.

To reitterate what Greybeard said (hope you are reading hblair).

Greybeards post is simply a salute to those that the SCs have flown with/against... Regardless of wether they stay or not.  I did not see any critique of the game nor its players.. simply a salute.

Please leave the arguments in the to the other threads.  Not every post is intended to be inflamatory.

So.. [salute]its been a great experience flying with everyone during these beta days.  Hope to see you all after it goes pay for play.[/salute]

Thats all, nothing more, nothing less.

Thanks for the Graphic's kudo Gadfly,,  but alas, I'm not the talent behind em......

D. "DeMutt" Hoover, aka (SC-DeMutt) is the artist.

And of course, he's working on the Squad logo again, so it's gone temporarily.

sigh....
