I only only joke with my gamer ego :devil but I was thinking earlier that picking the top 10 in AH is like picking your top 10 scariest movies, everyone is going to have different experiences. Its great to rehash the old memories with these guys though. Guys like Batfink, Stang, Skyrock, Creton, Bighorn (phish), Blue knights and the Muppets, DH367th taught me ACM when I started this game. They were the true "best" at the time, atleast for me. This game was so awesome when so many wanted to learn ACM and get down and dirty and really learn how to fight hard.

There are a bunch of good sticks these days. There are atleast 15-20 sticks currently playing I could mention right now that are very good and some of the best. Its tough out there, that's why I need them to get out of the Temps and 262s  :rofl

Bear!!! Not too shabby yourself back in the day!


Would be cool to see if we could get AI to find some of the best fighter tours over the years, like overall best K/D ever. Or most ridiculous overall fighter stats for one tour.

I've been enjoying checking out some of the older tours and seeing players #s back then compared to today.

I miss the 80th! Freaking scary in those p38s. Was looking back, like you, XtremeJ, Soulyss, Delirium, AKAK, Lazer, Drano, Geaux, 38maw! Scary squad!

I thought Bosco was always a good fight. Didn't beat him often. And DutchGuy.

I was perusing a few old films and ended up going down that old reminiscence road..
It got me thinking about all those people I've shared the AcesHigh sky with..
Some great and respected allies, others great and respected opponents.
Over the years I've flown against and along side some superb people, even recruited some of them to fly with me..

So many have left an impression in their manner of flying this little gem of a combat sim.

I whacked on some hard rock and ranked a top 10 out of those to keep it interesting.  :old:


1.Levithn
2.Bruv
3.Grizz
4.DrBone
5.Joachim
6.DrSpek
7.Krupnski
8.Sonic23
9.2Cmex
10.Sukov

Honorable Mentions;
(In no particular order)
nrshida
RedBull1
Debrody
INK
Perdweeb
Atlau
Shane
Latrobe
Irish0ne
J0KER
Twinboom
Pand
AKAK
Paleoguy

Change my mind  :old:

I did not reach potential until I stopped playing AH so I probably shouldn't be on any list. Learned a lot more since then and it's not even a comparison to the old AH krup.

Well, masterful flying where you're at now. I eat your vids right up on Youtube-especially those P-39 epics! Keep up the good work.
