Actually makes you suck a hole in the seat cushion. :)

I know from personal experience what landing with oil on the wind screen is like. Before that I never new engine oil was a natural laxative.

Actually I did try to respond, however the forum doesn't work terribly well on a mac. Great to see everyone though!
I may try to play in the Spring. Loved the game and loved the people.

As for the oil, I was a turnfighter for the most part who liked fighting in the fray (when there was a fray). Trying to fight in a furball and then getting hit by a bnz to make it so you couldn't see did make it so the game was less fun. Less response to controls was fine...not being able to see and keep fighting was a deal breaker. I do wish they hadn't put that in.

loony he has been gone for years just like Us Ol AW players that flew every version of AH they return,,,,,, also if ya noticed he has responed to his own thread lately either...  :devil

I still appreciate all the help Manx gave the 479th in switching over and transitioning to AH from AW.

The 441 in my handle is actually a tribute to the 441 silverfox squad I was a part of, which was a division of Manx’s 4wing squadron in AW3 RRE1 on gamestorm. Hey Manx!

Wasn't much of a transition, just had to get use to what features of AW didn't exists in AH.

Oh jeebus, here is traveler with his 2 cents.  The flight model was very different, some in the 479th hadn't played anything but AW and were not used to the more advanced flight model and Manx helped them get used to it.

The two games were very much alike, both had sheep, both were capture the flag by putting 10 troops in the map room on the airfield.  what ever did happen to the sheep?

You are correct AW and AH are almost identical games because they both had WWII  and WWI planes in them. And both have/had players who can be complete jerks.

If I recall correctly, 8 drunks needed to capture a base in AW not 10.

AW troops were more zealous.
