Hi everyone i'm 73 been playing now for 21 years or more getting worse every day> I don't know if its the screen or my eyes maybe just stupidity
but I love the game. I just wish that there were not so many good players online so I can have a chance.

I was under 50 when I started playing this game.  For real.

No longer.

older ...
harder to play nowdays, vision isn't what it used to be and need some eye work that old fogies seem to always need. After that maybe I can focus again.

1959 was outstanding. Started with 48 stars on the flag and ended with 50.

I started when the game started. Quit and came back twice. I turned 65 recently, so flying almost 20 years now. In my mind... thats another story. As I once read: the art of living is to die young, but as late as possible. I’ll stick to that one.

I fit solidly in this age group...born in 49.  Some years back I recall flying with Whels in this game....and thinking that it was cool that he was 70 and flying AH, well now I'll be 71 very soon.....

60 here, and started in 2001.
I was abandoned as a child and raised by feral weener dogs. To this day, I can't bring myself to eat a ballpark frank.

If he said he was 70, then that would have been Whel's Dad..... Mike Koon Sr.


Whels was my age or a couple yrs younger....... I'm 52 now



I really do miss talking to Whels/Mike....
