Rattler

S'ok. You ought to see the things I read at school sometime by 15-18 yr old students! You'd think they're completely illiterate (they might use the term illegitimate, and think it was correctly used; you get the picture.) I'll stop correcting now: sorry, it's in my nature as a teacher.

Isn't a peddle what people do from town to town, as in "No peddlers or vagrants"? I use a Saitek Cyborg Evo, so a twist rudder. I do not like the ergonomics of the stick, but it responds well.

that's a Darwin Award urban legend. There's almost no way for someone to proberly mount one of those to the roof or any part of a car and have it remain mounted. A funny story though. http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/enc1/jato3

Florida has a Hurricane? What mark? We need a road trip to see it! :joker:

It was the B-18 I was thinking about, competitor to the B-17. One of the ugliest pieces of crap I've ever laid eyes on IMHO. Definitely a candidate for "if it looks right, it is right"; in this case, it is NOT right!

Martin (?) B-18

If someone is at altitude with Nav lights on, they are fair game. If someone has Nav lights on, and expecting not to get shot, they should also be: 1) Below 1000m 2) Heading toward an airfield 3) Not shooting at anything I also want to state that Nav lights are not a "stop shooting me" ticket in mid-fight. If you have had enough, evade and run or bail. I would support a "no strafing chutes" clause. I would add this to the "nav lights" issue: if you enter a dogfight, you may not use the nav lights to disengage at any time, even if you're winchester or bingo fuel, near your base, above or below 1000m. Once you pick a fight, or agree to defend yourself, there's no turning back. You can't start shooting at someone, and then just say "ok, i want to go home now!" That being said, the gentlemanly rule of not blasting away at a flamer or dead-engine plane is still up to the individual. I hope to be available early enough to join you guys Friday!

Doh, stupid brain! See what a head cold does to you in the Spring!

Woah, you have to explain that one to me.... :?

As long as I get a Rafale, I will be French. Vive la difference! Vive la chevaliers du ciel!

I just editted myself into the list(s), as my soccer game was moved to Thursday. I should be able to make it to fly, albeit a little later (7:00 pm MST ok?)

WHO LET THE DOGS OUT! WHO LET THE DOGS OUT! (I see a theme song/opening menu song to fly by in the offing....) There, BG, loud enough for ya? Sorry I missed you all yesterday. I tried getting in, but the IP was wrong, then I tried getting on TS, but no one welcomed me . Then I needed to help my son make a school project, and then sing a solo at church and then, and then, and then, you ge the idea. Hope to see you guys some other time!

Probably in, and I'll be Axis.

Just what is an "ideal" BoB computer? I don't know if mine will run it or not, and that will definitely be a limiting factor.

Not running on my laptop at school. Will check at home later. Seems to allow for remote access/control through FTP, doesn't it?

I always ensure that i recycle my aluminium! They were able to turn that lovely machine into thumbtacks later. For the Fatherland! Gott mit uns (or is that mittens, i neve remember!)

No problems, Dave. We've all become frustrated at times from different things. Your post just reinforces the kind of M8 you are: a gentleman. ~S~ sir!, and until next time!

No problem! Here's my own apology: sorry to take so long to reply here, as I only looked at the forums today, first time in 1-2 weeks(?)

Pics deleted to save space... I believe that it is pronounced "Lattla", or "Lattlah" Also, i wasn't just blasting away, i was shedding ammo to reduce weight so that I could turn even tighter! REALLY nice pics, Kelly. Good thing that we always have you to die early so that you have these opportunities! Just kidding, you West-coast tree-hugging hippie commie pinko.

Does anybody know what the consequence of not getting the download will be for online play? Can we wait until all three add-ons are released, hopefully as a cheaper bundle? Any thoughts?

I dunno what happened. Some files don't compress well. Get the ointment. It substitutes as emergency rations when you bail out!

Yes, I tried using Winace, but it got larger!. I'll try it again with something else...

Ok, one set of fishing boats coming up. Still, how do I keep the size of the .ntrk file small enough to upload?

I hope that the 24 transport vehicles were all that was required. If not, let me know. I accomplished the task in 13:15, in a P-47 with rockets, 1 pair per pass (with ranging .50's, of course!) How can I get the .ntrk small enough to post? Mine is over 2.1 MB. I promise that I will post it!

Actually, I used to fly LB 2 online with some guys some 5-6 years ago. It was a hoot! We had an SOP where if you flew higher than 50 feet, you were sent back to ground school! And this was at 125-150 kts in a Longbow! It was a cool game in its day.
