I can understand, and support any reasonable issues regarding ANY plane, It's handling, Gunnery etc. That would make it more realistic as far as Simulation will tolerate.
IMHO, The accuracy we have always strove for in the AH FM, Increases the simulation's appeal to us. Challenging us to improve ourselves, to adapt, and overcome. Much like those great souls we emmulate. (Sans, gut wrenching terror, Death and/or dismemberment,etc. of course).
I believe that HTC rose on a Monday, Saw the MAIN ARENA, That it was STRAT, And that it was Good, (And would be better). As the war progressed, HTC saw occasional furballing, Solo B17 joks, stomp rudders, and yank triggers, in futile attempts to RTB safely after an 8 grid flight, And worried not; For the war will police it's self. Those errant, brought in line. THIS was AH, MA, It was STRAT, It was Good, (And would be better).
On Wednesday Morning, (Hung over Tuesday, No workie), HTC saw the Good that was STRAT, (and would be better), Saw the fog lift, and in that moment of clarity, Shortened the story thus.. For HTC so loved the AH ehhh, community, He Lowered the price, (Knowing the whiners would come), And to save the beloved AH, MA, STRAT, (good n' gettin better), Waived his uhh.. PEN, over the ferma, errr.. Fermini.. big empty place, And LO; The COMBAT THEATRE appeared!!
A Furballer's heaven! Allied vs. Axis!! No Bomber problem! (As IF there was a problem!)
And Cheap too!!!
MORAL:
Don't 'Handicap' the sim to suit you! Get over your shortcomings, The AH gang will help, And EVERYONE benefits!
We all like to furball, Bomb, Whatever to varying degrees. AH is the only sim I've seen to really try to accomidate everybody. Lets build on that, Not tear down what's already working for the MAJORITY.
My 23 cents {S}
Remember,BE HAPPY! (Cuz OUR worst nightmare is a CTD after takeoff in a PERK plane!)
