Not trying to blow my own trumpet here, but it's not just the plane, it's also the pilot

I usually enjoy your posts, and I must say, even this thread has given me some more knowledge to help me online, but I wonder if you realize what kind of elitist jacka** you sound like here. I really hope that this is not what this community is going to turn into.

Not trying to pick a fight with you, just wanted to point it out, maybe you just dont realize how you sounded.

But seriously Ace, unlike the PC version, you will be getting a whole new crowd of “newbie’s” who don’t have a clue to what a WWII fighter is all about. Hell, most weren’t even born until after stealth technology…So I propose, for the good of the game, we help the newcomers understand and enjoy dog fighting so they continue to play BoP, and buy the downloads which will make the game a great success so we will get more planes and there will always be a good group of pilots online to have a challenging and rewarding dogfight with at anytime…and maybe even get those darn German cockpits eventually…

I told you, and even in the title, the question was smug. But I didn't expect everyone on here to understand the limitations of the planes while playing, but if you are flying simulator. You should realize how your plane handles at 10,000 or 5,000ft.

I'm not trying to tear anyone down by any means, in fact I was hoping to open some eyes by realizing that if they're flying a 109, not to dogfight at lower altitudes, and vise versa with Yaks etc. I know I came of as an "elitists", but I was just wondering why some people did that? I can understand not knowing about the planes, but maybe now, people will start looking into their planes and seeing where they fit in altitude dogfights?
