Thanks guys. At the time it was going down I was so excited. It was one of those moments you long for and here I had intended all along to get action pics. Perfect situation.... Well, I need to report that I was greedy and and wanted another flight and another kill. So you don't know it, over the front while juking and jiving the anti aircraft fire I took one square in the engine and fell behind the lines to serve as prisoner for the duration. Then I found my 20 pics were puke. Oh such highs and lows we encounter in war. Thanks MK2 for the link. Maybe this chimp can figure it out. By the way I am unfamiliar with William Molesworth. I assumed he was an ace because of his name on the lable. Usually says airman or such.

Not off topic. OFFers what is the correct way to make screen grabs. I am doing shift+; then F12. Sometimes I have success other times not. I messed up some great action pics tonight and need a new moron chipset or your kind help, help.

So after checking in here at HQ earlier today I was given my flight orders, patrol the front and note enemy troop movements. No sooner did my flight of 3 Roland CII begin to rev our engines that the air raid siren kicked into screaming. Nieuport 17's, too many to count in the commotion. Took off, tried to get some air beneath my wings and climb as best I could. It was a free for all. I singled out one of the sprightly little nupes and got a few deflection shots into him. That had the desired effect of clipping his wings a tad so I might gain on him. I managed to get a few more rounds into him and crawled up his backside. "here's some more for ya buddy". I wondered who this might be... from talk back at the chateau I figured it to be a certain chap named William E. "Moley" Molesworth from RFC 60. I fired another 80 rounds or so in several bursts and he eventually went down into a small woods, setting the trees on fire. We did well to survive against what started out as 2 flights nieuport 17-lewis, 6 crates per flight. Ran out of ammo as did my observer. Having never gotten far from the airfield I was able to put her down unharmed. Filed my claim and came here to make my report and found I had been promoted already to Junior Member. For me the shame was I made quite the effort to take good screenies to post but when I checked the folder they were unusable. Bummer. Village idiot strikes again. Does Radio Shack carry moron chips?

Let me know when you guys are goin on a snipe hunt. I like a good snipe now and again.

Hey Matt, love the theme man! So glad you can join us. This forum change is a breath of fresh air. Welcome to you

Yes it seems some have made changes, that's cool. We'll adjust. Nice to be given a headsup tho. Is it just me or has nobody else seen our gimpyguy? Has he changed his nik?

Hello indeed Herr Creaghorn, wilkommen!

My pilot Kiste Rachatisch flying Fokker EIII in a quiet sector logged 17.28 hours. Met his fate with archie.

Thanks Gr. Viper, maybe you got some gotha bombers and zeps, I'll have a look see.

Guys, I would answer if I had a good answer. It's a bit of mystery to me and I don't like speculation as a rule. I have a question for you. I am running Vista 32. Would FE run on my rig? I think I have the graphic power and such. Thanks. And do I hope you don't feel too crowded.

You can show me a little love by telling me how much you love that new game of yours. I know it's early.

OFF forum in the Combat Ace website has a better sound than OFF forum in the SOH. IMHO

Welcome back Wels. Thanks for explaining your nik.

OVS, somehow I think I will be much happier with the changes here than what you referenced. I feel the need to huge someboy.

Hi Robbydee, Welcome to our sim. I'm still learning too. But in the process I have been having a heck of a good time. Keep at it and read the threads on this wonderful forum. Ask questions, you did and it was answered promptly by one of the OBD developement team. That's how things roll here. You are among friends. Read the sticky OFF TIPS and Cheats from Gimpyguy, great work and help there. There is a key command list in there somewhere. Happy flying to you.

I say good choice Winder. This move is turning out to be quite a nice "patch" in it's own way.

Seems to be official!!!! Good choice I say. Thanks to everybody involved. I liike it so much here already and I have to say we just made a major upgrade. No disrespect from me just IMHO. Yeeefrickinhaaaa! That's yank for good show.

It is the plane in his avatar. An expeiramental plane of unique design and shape like a flea therefore Floh.

Asking for vollunteers? Now you're being silly Lou. Cheers to you

I'm liking the functionality of this site and the moderators and ol' timers have been wonderful. The only petty thing I would see changed is that a proper WW1 air theme be available for the Combat Ace banner at the top. There are other WW1 forums too. Me I like the ST Black skin as it works with my 52 year old eyes. Bottom left hand corner are the page skins.

Now there's a good man. Thanks.

Hi Widowmaker and a hearty welcome mate! FYI Herr Olham is on leave as they say do to a spot of trouble with his rig. I have informed him of our new quarters and the big todo that brought us to this new 'drome. Do let me know how you are getting on with ETW please.

Oh yes................ very lucky man you. I envy. I have to have it when I have the moola. The ship engagements are what I'm after. I would love to see a forum for this sim here. WW1 warbirds and the age of Sailing Men of War are my fav topics. Life of Nelson etc. I look forward to a game named East India Company also. Have a great time Widowmaker and do give a report please when you get a bit of a chance please.
