Thanks Olham! I've met with the same result She'll stall pretty easy if you bank her too steep I'll have to try the high speed bank Anyone torn up their top wing yet?

Merry Christmas Widow! I hope you have a joyous time with your family And hopfully there's a Snipe in the not too distant future too Peace,

Good advice there Bullet I shoulda taken her up in Freeflight 1st, but I just barreled into campaign right off I'll have to learn her finer points the hard way I guess ...but 2nd Lt Rupert Jenks is still kickin Yeegads!!! it's a Scramle! I'm raising a St Pauli Girl in your honor as we speak Rick This rounds on me gents Thanks for the welcome back M8's ...now tell me 'bout that Dr1

Yes, I agree She seems a little weak in the ailerons but that big rudder has a lotta kick I had a DVa pass underneath and she snap turned and dove real quick Visibility will take a little getting used to Maybe take a look at TIR and make a few adjustments there

Took about a month off from flyin My homicidal PC had me more than a bit frustrated Getting constantly hit by my own AA compatriots is quite an immersion killer But I just downloaded HitR and the upgrade That sweet li'l Nieup 28 was just calling to me So far I've tangled with DVa's several times She's way more stall sensitive in a turn than the DVII But keep her wings more level and she'll whip 'round quick enough So far I've bagged 3 DVa's and a Hannover And there's a flamin gasbag out there with everything but my boots in it ...Had to make 3 passes before it'd burn! Can'y wait to meet up with some Triplanes!

Hmm, interesting to see someone with the same issue I ran a Poll a while back and I was the only respondant that voted Friendly Ack Ack as a leading cost of death I tried setting AA to Easy too, and still got blown outta the sky Reset both cfs3 and OFF and this pilot got knocked down twice ...surviving the wreck at 3 hours What AA is knocking yiou down, friendly, enemy, or both? Think I either have a weird install issue or AA is just a feature with large variation from PC to PC AA was murderous for me in P2 also Thanks for responding appraiserfl

My best pilot was Leutnant Horst Blucher He lasted 13.8 hours, closest I've gotten to 17 in a long while He had about 38 confirmed and 5 medals ..but met his end in the usual way - hit by friendly Ack-Ack down low chasing a Spad Quite frustrating, I haven't flown for 2 weeks or so Haven't downloaded HitR yet but I'll get back in the cockpit sooner or later

I added my votes today Too bad we can't see the results til the poll is completed though

Amazing stuff!

When I 1st saw the DH5, I thought "That's a Bullethead machine" Thinking of taking her up? Don't worry, I'll have your back up high in my sweet li'l Nieup 28

I went to school in Western Michigan in the early eighties I didn't find the temperature or snow accumulation much different from Connecticut What shocked me was the wind I remember be lifted to my tiptoes by a gust from the back once And having to lean so far forward to walk into it My winter jacket was quite worthless too I had to buy one that sealed tightly round the neck But nothing was worse than skiing on Mt Snow (Vermont) 30 feet up on a chair lift, -35oF wind chill, and the lift broke down every 100 feet it seemed

Must be a girl Women always make you wait ...but steal your heart when they arrive Congratulations sandy

The flames on the that EV were ouitstanding! New DM maybe? Here's link to Erik's post: http://forum.combata...at-in-the-ring/ Thanks for posting Erik!

Ah yes, 1994 ...my shoulders hurt just thinking about it At the time, the house I lived in had two 2 car wide driveways Shovel a foot of snow 1 day then wake up the next morning and there's another foot lying there ...ouch! Next year I bought a snowblower btw. Nice house Bullet!

Don't open this unless you can stand looking at those funny single winged aeroplanes And Britsters, just pass on by the Spit I found it downright painful ...but everything else is cool http://home.comcast..../Edwards09.html

All objects accept aircraft appear at 8 miles on the TAC Aircraft generally appear at 4 miles as Bogies (White) ...then turn red when within 2 miles Warp is disabled if any (enemy) Bogies are present Keep in mind, TAC only shows horizontal diatance The actual 2 & 4 mile distances are spherical around your position

Excellent work Puff! Thank you for sharing

Thank you Sir! We surely had a wonderful meal Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Are you sure? Looks like he's saying "Who is this man???"

More like the whole flippin family! After getting hit repeatedly by frienly AcK-Ack, I decided it was just butchery ...hence the name Blucher Johann, Franz, Gerhard, they all got blasted outta the sky Say wouldn't this make a great face to model Olham's moving AI heads on?

Hmmm Dicta Duce ...maybe I'll name my next pilot Oswald ...Oswald Blucher But not too soon I hope Shhhhh! I'm quietly sneaking up on my 2nd best pilot in BH&H so far Reseting both OFF & cfs3 has really helped This bloke has only been hit by friendly Ack-Ack only once ...and he survived

Rest in Peace Gunther!

I think we've all been there at 1 point or another Here's a few tips: 1. Always clear your tail before attacking (TAC and/or visually) 2. Stay high in the fight 3. If your opponent dives, let him go (esp. in a tight dogfight) 4. Gain tactical advantage before attacking (height & numbers) 5. If you get damaged, turn & go home 6. Protect your wingmen (the more of them around, the less pressure on you) 7. You can be more aggressive on your side of the lines, but when crossing into enemy territory, be more conservative Best method is to attack the highest opponent, drive him down ...then hit the next highest guy, etc. The victories will come, best not to worriy about them til the OFF Manager rejects your claim HTH,

Thanks, I'll give it a try
