Well understand this "Ace." Some of us here really fly airplanes - although they are fun, simulators are no way close to the real thing unless you're in a full motion, multi-million dollar sim, and even those have limitations. So when we hear about someone becoming a "triple ace" we take that with a grain of salt. We do have the gaming threads where you could knock yourself out all day there, but in the threads about factual events and aircraft performance, well as you seen, simulator talk for the most part is mocked.
Enjoy the forum and keep practicing those cross wind landings!
