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.


Davy on forum twice in 2 days. Now we're cookin'!!!!!

Sad news indeed. From the beginning of my time here you were always someone who I enjoyed seeing in games, and enjoyed seeing on the forum. Your banner with Davy Crocket swinging at all those heads wearing wigs.. that was classic.

Mrs. Viper and I will be praying for your recovery and if I don't see you in the skies anymore I would like to thank you for all the great memories. "Uugh!"

So sorry to hear of your medical issues, Davy. Like the others who have posted and I am sure the whole DF community, I wish you a speedy recovery. You have taught me many valuable lessons along the way, both when you were on my side and when you were "red".
You will be the subject of very many prayers, Davy, mine included.

Sr. Davy, YOU WILL BE FINE!!!! GOD IS WITH YOU AND WITH YOUR FAMILY.




This is just something that will pass, keep your faith and we will all pray for your wellbeing every day. You have a Loving family at home and here in game that will cheer you. Your loving wife is your rock and she will give you all the love and support you need to be all well soon. And in case you do not follow the advice of your doctor she will hit you with a rock on your head to knock some sense in to you.


This is temporary Sir Davy, it will pass and it will go away. You need to rest and yes SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!! I see you playing till very late and then up at early morning playing again. I had to leave the game for 4 month because of similar situation. I went dizzy and short of breath, and develop what the neurologist calls panic attacks. She believes it was trigger buy my lack of sleep, because of study’s and goofing off DF. Combine with a bit of asthma problems it was terrible.


Please do not let depression take over, stay positive and always cheerful. And all players please KEEP IN TOUCH WITH DAVY, he needs your laugh to get thru all this. You will now visit new doctors with lots of lights and toys that will plug things to your head and in your hair; but it will all be fine in a short while. Most you need to do is go back to a good sleeping habit.


During the time I was not able to play I discover the forum and stay in touch with all that way. Follow your DR’s advice and your wife’s advice; God willing you will be fine soon. Remember stay STRONG, POSITIVE, IN GOOD FAITH AND REST WELL. A BIG HUG TO YOU AND YOUR WIFE!!! I will keep you both in my prayers and YES YOU WILL BE FINE AND BACK PLAYING IN A FEW MONTHS.


So no good byes or talks about retirement, REAL PILOTS FLY HIGH!


Jessica ;)

Doctor Gannet diagnoses dizzy spells caused by a overindulgence in corkscrew approaches.
Treatment: A 3 week course of sneaking. Refrain from any violent manoeuvres.

God Bless

[*M] MISFIT CROCKETT wrote: 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


So you heard I'm back, and this is how you avoid my blazing guns? Get well, sir. Gratz on 200,000+ kills

Davy,

I heard Hulk and Cannon talking on world chat that you are actually retiring from Dogfight to work full time on Hillary's campaign. The said you were committed to delivering Tennessee to her campaign. I was skeptical, but it could be possible. Say it ain't so... :evil: :lol:

My U.S. Navy brother... Best to you and Mrs. Crockett as you take some well needed R&R, NOT to be confused with LIBERTY, which would just make things worse! We will keep your spot open in FLY1 until you return from Depot level maintenance.

Mountain time always made it tough to join the dawn patrol, but always enjoyed "MAYDAY, MAYDAY, DING DING DING DING DING DING DING!!!"

"PLAN A" my friend, Sir Davy.

En toda batalla siempre habrá grandes obstáculos, a estos hay que darles buena cara.

Sir Davy, hope you can resurrect the greatness in the skies you once had. I'll never forget being a noob, and knowing nothing of tactics, shooting stance, air speed, or posture. But there will always be the first time I saw you as red sir. It was earth moving. You stood still as the sun, and absolutely killed everyone and their chutes from afar, as the red team bombed, tanked, and took position. I never knew, until then, what it meant to be an Alpha in the DF sky. You controlled the game, you took it over. You made everyone play by your rules. Thank you SIR UUUUugh/Davy, for drawing that curtain to my sights. Loved piloting behind you to gather lintel, and going against you to learn defense, it meant the world to this Wolf. Thank You for that. Always respect - Skeeter -

Look TX LAWMAN, just because I'm a little sick that doesn't mean I'm sick in the head, how dare you accuse me on being for Hillary. Just because I believe in UFOs, monsters and I am usually under surveillance by the government doesn't mean I'm crazy enough to be on the Hillary train. Uggggggg, I'm not a Hillary person, now look at me, you made me cry. You Texan bully. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Goooooooo ttttttttrrrrrrrrrrruuuuuuummmmmmmmppppppppp


Thanks a lot folks, last few days have been pretty good, just very tired. My first neurologist appointed is in two weeks so hopefully they will be able to turn this around after they find out want it is.
