People bleed E to land. All planes of this era were supposed to land by the main gears touching first, then the tail gear.  

Wrong KWEASSA. Try reading a book or flight manual on 2nd world war planes. They were supposed to land with the "3 pointer" technique, or in simpler terms ALL 3 WHEELS touching at the same time. Where did you read that rubbish you're saying?

. After the main gears contact, do a shallow and gentle bounce...  

HAHAHA... how ridiculous. A bounce is never a good thing on landing!!! Any landing with a bounce is a half crash.

Seeing this information is very wrong, I'll disregard anything you said in the post.

Have a nice day.   :rolleyes:

FDSS –

Sorry to hear that you’re not staying. Have you tried some of the other sims?  I have, and I think AH is one of the best. I am a 4 year veteran of Warbirds, but I don’t like the direction in which that has gone in the past year or so. I looked at WW2OL (boxed version) but that seems to feature only the Spit and 109 planes, and is mostly a general warfare game. I had a look at IL2 – dead impressive!  But I wanted a sim with a wider plane set. So I came here.

I agree with a couple of negative points that have been raised: Unlike WB (as it was in 1998), in AH there seems to be no option to just hook up with a few guys who happen to be nearby and fly as an unofficial squad. The team spirit is not quite there (no 6-calls for me last night  :( ) so membership of a squad is on my list of things to sort out soon.

The other negative point concerns the Training Arena(s). I have not been in there myself, but was told by another WB player who visited last week that the “trainer” was not helpful. I think it transpired that the guy was not a trainer at all. All he did was to set my friend up into positions in which he could kill him. After dying about 6 such deaths, my friend quit in disgust. This is very damaging for Aces High, as a potential customer has been lost. Perhaps the training arenas should be locked, unless an official trainer is present.

Read my post about the ten things I like about AH.

Hey "flying poultry guy" (lol...Toad and Kieran crack me up) you're wrong. Go here

 and see the actual WWII training films. Landing, take off. "Edumecate" yourself.

I just want to take a moment to thank everyone who has participated in this thread for 4 solid days of free entertainment.

As for FDSS, You're still outta here, right? Or did you change your mind?

I think sig file is nice but he needs nose art too   :) Anyone got a pic of a Farting Duck or Squatting Swan? Preferably of one that's all bunged up and having a real hard time doing either?   ;)

Should I read this topic or could someone post a "compressed" text about this?

(I can't see keys in my kb so how could I read all those fancy words up there?)

Dawvgrid..no I'm not 14. I use a lot of smileys, because I'm a very emotional guy! Why do people think that once you get out of puberty you have to act like your grandfather? Live a little!!!    :rolleyes:

Uncle...you said you looked at the boxed version of WW2Online. Where? I've been looking all over the UK for it and it's contraband as far as I know. Have you found a special little hidden shop on the British Isles where they sell it? Please tell me if you have. Thanks for your post, by the way, it was very informative.

Westy..I still have to look at those movies. I'll get back to you as soon as I have.
