I wouldn't be surprised to find him in FA, with the rest of the 'FR is too hard for me crowd.'

I remember krsco in RR Europe, flying his spit at 45k, telling the world how good he was.
I think he finally took his show to bigpac,  I sure don't miss him.

I miss FR being FR in a supposely FR arena.
Seems stall limiter is on in the Main Arena.
I miss the antics and general good natured combat.
I miss the Idea that who you shot down regularly meant a lot more than your rank.
I miss the regular reports on hacks found.
I miss the Named bases(since Training Arena bases had one named for me)
I Miss the Macros!
I miss the chat like preflight rooms and the great flyers giving tips to whomever was in the room.
I miss wondering who the people were that the bases were named after.......And then meeting them!
I miss the 100 players in one sector arena resets!!!
The mission planner,plane skins, the pictures and films generated and the ease to edit them. AH film viewer does not translate to an outside viewer as well.
A lot of people that played AW and not made it into AH:rolleyes:
I thought I was important until I got Cancer and had to go to a cancer clinic.

It's a client side setting, uncheck it in Settings.

Nope. Gene was Gene.. and a fine old gentleman I might add. The saying was Gene ,Gene , the gooning machine. I had more fun talking to Gene than any other time in AW. The EDC had an interview with Gene that was really interesting. It was sorta cool to have someone in the game on a daily basis that had"been there , done that".

bluesy maybe his handle was cusco along with his girlfriend Emerald.  allways on late at night. maybe?


 cusco allway flew the p38 or almost always. I always found cusco to be hard to kill.


 What i miss the most is the F4U what a plane that was in AW.
 
 I was so dissappointed when i went to WB and found out they didnt model it the same way.  Also dissappointing was that AH doesn't model it that way either. :mad:

wow stega i had forgotten & i wish ah had something comparable to air warrior's weekly training classes.  i recollect looking forward to them very much each week.  if ah had the same, i think new pilots' enjoyment would be enhanced.

I think that Gene's handle in AW was "Gene".
I was "goaly" in AW and here in AH also. I remeber flying with Gene, he spent a lot of time flying goons the same as I did in AW and still do here.

Of course in AW you could change your handle once a day if you wished. So some players are known by several names.

You did! But no one answered my question about what happened to him. Guess no one knows. :(

I believe Loogy was his son. I don`t know  if Loogy plays AH or not.
  I remember Gene celebrated his 77 0r 78th birthday during AW. I may have Gene`s e-mail addy on an old puter. Will check when I get everything put back in order after I moved.

I miss the DiKtAtOr Squadron, They were great for my K/D ratio and their Macros were funny. They'd actually complain when someone came over and disturbed their milk runs, can you imagine that? :rolleyes:
