You are right Boilerplate, I don't recognize some of those sims. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Here is my latest. I'll bet they wish they hadn't hit me. The B-17 tail gunner shot me but my plane continued flying and flew into the B-17.  That fireball between the two Japanese plane wings in front of the B-17 is what's left of my rapidly disintegrating Zero.  Wheels

Some of Boilerplate's screen shots are of Janes WW2 Fighters! I've still got that on the hard drive, I might fire it up. I even have some mods on CD I bought a long while back...

Give that man a Cuban!  There are still a few out there playing it. But it's been over 4 years since the last time I fired it up. The add-ons made a big difference. The mission builder was pretty good too. Sadly after all these years, the Jane's WW2 Fighters website will be closing at the end 2011. You might want to scramble over there before they draw the curtains. www.ww2fighters.orgAnd here's a little known secret: http://www.simplyhifi.com.au/AWPUpdates.htm
It's a Game.

You picked the short runway there... I may need to work on turning the aircraft around without tipping it on its nose You're in good company actually. More BF-109's were lost to ground handling problems than to enemy fire.
The word "Martyr" is just a fancy name for "crappy fighter".

There needs to be a wingman command for "Stay away from me you idiot!"  I've lost count of the number of times my useless wingman has crashed into me. Of course he ejected with lightning reflexes, while I flipped upside down and ejected straight into the ground.

I always like it when a couple of planes I have a few round in take each other out.  Wheels as economists say: it's good for business!!  Cheers
