« on: June 24, 2003, 08:27:08 PM »
Signs that you have a bad AH Trainer:

-  Trainer vulches you over and over again to teach ‘humility’

-  Trainer gets himself muted for swearing

-  Training flight consists of circling low over the airfield while the trainer explains, ‘this is how we hide in our ack’

-  Trainer’s answer for all of your questions is: “Why?  Because you suck, that’s why!”

-  Trainer explains that he can double your bombing efficiency with his ‘pork and auger' method

-  Trainer’s handle is ‘Mandoble’

-  When instructing on Mustang vs. Spitfire tactics, trainer spends entire lesson running away from you

-  Trainer asks what you are wearing

I actually think Mandoble would make a decent trainer for Boom and Zoom.  A while back I thought he was timid, but most of the sissies in the MA make him look like a rabid dog charging at you.

No kiddin', everyone knows that scotch is the preferred pre TOD beverage.
Here we put salt on Margaritas, not sidewalks.

At least you didn't drink any of that crap Runny endorses.

Or did you?

I seem to recall a TOD where I ripped the wingtip off my FW by scraping it against the reload shed, after everybody had to reload because somebody decided we didn't need those deadweight drop tanks.  Getting that 1-and-a-half winged FW airborne after bouncing it across the airfield dirt, then actually getting up into a firing position behind the B-17 stream is a highlight of my Aces High career.

And then I learned that "The Howard Stern Show" comes on right about the time we're climbing up to altitude. I tend to lose the formation during form-up now.  

Then "Wild On..." comes on right after it and now my SA is completely shot. :p

Actually, you can back up on the carrier by giving just a little bit of throttle. Works with the Corsair and Dauntless, at least. Look left or right and you should see the carrier deck going slightly faster than you.
