Hello fellow dogfighters.

I'm sorry to say that due to a few medical issues that dogfight is now difficult for me to play.

Here's why, I'm sure most of you know that a plane has a center of gravity, well I bet most of you don't know that the body also has center of gravity.

A few weeks I found out my center of gravity went bye bye. I have extreme fatigue, lack of balance, lightheaded, and shaky hands.

Anyhow the va medical center is now working on why this happened. It could be several things and if they fix it then I will come back. My first neurologist appointment is in a few weeks

Anyhow I should have at least been on the forum but I'm just to Darn tired. The good news is that I get to sleep a lot lol lol lol. I will try to keep checking in the forum more often and on zello to keep in touch.

Love ya all DAVY

Hey young man...sorry to hear you are experiencing some medical issues. Happens to us all at some point. Hope they discover the issue soon. VA not always the quickest on the draw! ;). I enjoyed you in blue...not so much in red! We seem to have a similar sense of humor except when it comes to Donald Trump! It would be nice to meet you sometime. Visit here when you can and best wishes to a speedy recovery!

Indeed, Hulk. And I copy SE's comments. You were deadly but always willing to give advice (most often followed with tracers! Lol) glad we got to meet, Davy. Hope we get to do it again. You truly are a legend, both within and out of the game.

Cheers! My heart is with you!

Breaking my heart to see you go but many greats have come out of retirement after some time off. Im sure your star and seat at the misfit table will always be there for when you get yourself better and come back to us.

One of the greats davy, in personality, as a squad mate and a friend. We all wish you well and love ya davy.

If you see me, remember I see you too!!

:( Knew something was wrong big brother , just didnt know what . You showed me so much and when I was about to throw the game away you spent that time with me on zello teaching me the mastery of Ipad tilt . If you hadnt done that kind act of taking time out of your busy life for me then I definitly wouldnt be proudly parked in 7 spot . I miss those dawn patrols mate . We had so much fun . You may be out of the light for the moment but you will never be forgotten . I will pray for you daily my friend as I expect two things out of you . The first is to see you in the sky in a game that is institutionalised by your greatness . The second one is that trip to Australia with Mrs Crocket . I have a kangaroo saddled and ready for your first ride into the outback wilderness . Love you always brother Davey . God speed .

Emperor Davy...you will be missed. You have always been a great mentor from the day I first crossed your path. You are truly one of the great ones and, even though you never crossed through Pennsylvania (wait, you didn't, right?), I call you my friend. You are true ambassador of DF and just good people in general.

I hope and pray all goes well with you. You are admired, respected, and loved by all. God speed on your recovery.

ALL HAIL EMPEROR DAVY!!! Your legacy will always be real as much as the person you are.

MISFIT STRONG. MISFITS UNITED. THIS MISFIT WISHES YOU AND YOUR FAMILY SAFE TRAVELS IN LIFE.

Dear Davy,

Sorry to hear of this. You are not only number one here, but also a roll model for us all.
You tought us a lot on this silly gaming adventure we embarked on years ago.
Not just flying wise, but also your witt are excamplary.

May I, since the topic comes up, interest you in a book I wrote about the symptoms you are experiencing?
A part of it is published in an article on the internet and can be found in the following link:

aviationknowledge.wikidot.com/aviation:simulation-sickness

I also can bring you into contact with my brother in law, who's a lawyer that specialises in such cases.
Since no disclaimer can be found in this game.......you think Zup is insured?

Please send $ 120,-- to by bank account at the Polar & Christmasian Bank, Finland and you will not only get the book, autographed by mé, but also recieve a free full trial version of "Microsoft's Combat Flight Simulator - The Pacific Theatre". This offer expires in 3 days, so get your copy now!

Hope you get well soon.

I wish you well Davy. You're one person who has earned to have his name retired with style, on top!

Pleasure to have met you. You carried yourself well to all here in DF.

With that said, for the first time since I have been here in DF, I will address you as I have never done anyone before...

Sir

All the best!

Thank you very much guys, I appreciate the kind words. It is actually fun trying to stand up straight without tilting to one side and if I lean backwards on my heals I just keep going backwards. It's kinda like a free drunk lol ( in my younger days of course )

In all seriousness I really don't care, I firmly belive if the good lord allowed this to happen than so be it, my trust is fully in the lord. I could my hearing and/or sight or anything else and I really wouldn't care. I just take it all day for day.

I feel very fortunate to have have played this game and met and talked to so many of you.
