We have been warned about this ...

[alfa2]

Dear CA friends, Sophocles has send me a message yesterday that when using the AI he got a response about my nickname here. So I was myself curious and I've looked up what Gemini would tell about me and this is what I discovered:

"In the actual SF2 modding scene, alfa2 is widely recognized as a core developer behind highly complex community aircraft packages.

Key Contributions & Specializations

Project "Godfather" Leader: alfa2 is the lead engineer behind Project "Godfather", a series of massive, highly praised aircraft overhauls on CombatACE. [1, 2]"

Radar-Aviator, how did you get the link in "alfa2's" name to show?  I've been trying to get the same result by putting an @ in front of the user but itdoesn't work?

[Radar-Aviator]

@sophocles It's like this: you need to type either the designated username or the exact username being displayed. You should also pay close attention to the profile picture (PFP) shown to ensure your message is directed to the correct person and to avoid any confusion.

That's honestly great thing sir, damn 1981s. How was your experience back then compared to newer scalemodels ?

I was only a teenager back then so the current developments in scale modelling (photo etched and after market products)  were a distant dream .. I did however buy an airbrush and compressor, and was quite proud of my models .. though I had to leave them all behind when I emigrated to my mother country Greece from Melbourne, Australia in the early 90s.  Are you still making scale models?

Yes, I still do! I've completed quite a few scale model commissions over the years, but I haven't had the chance to build one for myself yet. Since I'm still a teenager, I'm saving up for my first personal project. My dream first build is the Great Wall Hobby 1/48 Su-30MKI, followed by other Indian Air Force aircraft. It's amazing how much the hobby has evolved with all the photo-etched, resin, and 3D-printed aftermarket parts available today. It must've been really difficult having to leave your collection behind after moving to Greece. Planning to post on the website very soon! Right after my busy week

Bro, you really get around! But is the ai summary accurate? Inquiring minds want to know....

It's fairly accurate more or less, but it doesn't go that far because I recently changed back to Flanker562 from EricJ, so I'm sure if I looked up my old handle I'd find more, but this will suffice for now. I used to moderate for Eagle Dynamics when they were still on Ubisoft as a publisher, and changed when ED got their own forums and so on. I'm making some changes in my life so I felt that Flanker562 was more appropriate, and so on.
