I've out-circled Fokker Triplanes while in an SPAD XIII. I've brought in a Mustang with a broken back ("...durned 88's done scuffed my vehicle!") for a survivable belly landing in the Ardennes (belly-in because I lost the gear in a rough-field landing I made to "rescue" my downed wingman). And I've stalled an F-19 under full control (yes, my flight sim experience is that old) to bring it into a virtual hover. I am elite! ... :ph34r:
... and in IL2, I have had an oppurtunity to land a MiG-3 three times so far (only three because every other sortie ended with me decorating the landscape in charred black and blood redâ over a relatively wide area of ground). And by golly, one of these days I'll actually keep that danged MiG on her wheels before I come to a complete stop! If I had a callsign already, it'd be "Turtle". As in up-ended onto my back with my legs waggling lazily towards the sky.
Skillz save you not. ;)

Political Correctness is the idea that you can foster tolerance in a diverse world through the intolerance of anything that strays from a clinical standard.
