A little bit of Flight sim history!

The first time that someone managed to create an online combat flight sim and they realised their opponent was a milisecond slower at start up, they thought it would be cool to shoot them while they were on the ground still warming up their engines. Thus the time honoured tradition of Vulching was formed!

Over the years individual (and even squadrons of ) online supermen have perfected the practice of camping over a enemy base and frustrating the efforts of their opponents to get off the ground. The biggest justification of this is that if they were serious about the game the defenders would, well, put up a defence! Maybe this is a method of doing just that?

I was vuched in my first ever time online - didn't even get a chance of getting my engine started! Even in that first game I though "Man Wouldn't it be great to get my hands on a Bofors gun!" Now my dream will (eventually) be fullfilled!

Hey, you don't wan't to use it? Don't!

Cheers!
