Good bye Knights!
« on: November 18, 2003, 10:00:06 AM »
For 4 years I flew Knights for all but 60 days of that time. I've moved onto greener pastures where I actually KNOW some of the guys when I log in. :p  Though many knights don't know who the hell I am, just saying, its been a fun 4 years!  Be gentle on me when you find me in your territory!

I recently went Rook, after being a Knight for almost 3 years. But I haven't flown in a long time so I don't recognize too many names.

Don't worry Rip. Those of us that still know the name and the penchant you have for low alt inbound flight will be glad to knock your Knight and VMF-323 self to the ground and give you a proper welcome home.

Hey Reschke, I grew up in Birmingham and spent many a Friday and Saturday night cruisin in Vestavia and a few other haunts. I graduated H.S. in '71 so it's been a while.

Very sad if Rip went to lemming-suicide-bishiots. In addition to having most pilots most of the time, they now start getting those who can fly...

I hope Rip likes flying missions, because that's all the Bishops do.  Here's a tip: if you're not in the front of the herd, you better hope you remembered to check "Attack" before you took off or you won't get any points for strafing the fuel drums.  :p

I moved up here in 1991 to play football at UAB. My wife graduated from Homewood and I grew up down near Selma, AL in the prime hunting area of the state. I wish I lived there now but it would have to be as a single man because my wife damn sure will not move to that area.

Vestavia has changed a good bit in the last 10 years. There has been a huge influx of new business into the area. Nearly all the land over between Grant's Mill Road and Hwy 280 has been annexed by Birmingham, Hoover and Vestavia. Now that area is where most of the big time high dollar new construction homes are being built.

Ripsnort,

As long as your flying in AH is what is important. I'll either enjoying fighting you as a Bishop or winging with you as Rook. Either way your a good person to fight against or fly with.

See you in the MA and hopefully SEA.

Hopefully he goes Bish.  We don't need no stinkin' carpeted runways in Rookland.
