Fellow Warriors….

I have closed my AH account.    Since I am no longer a paying customer, my reasons are irrelevant.  I offer no explanation.

I would like to thank all those that I have flown online with / against over the past 11+ years. It was a wild ride and a real hoot! Good luck to one and all.

To the two squads with which I flew…

ODM ! ! ! Cactus Air Force

HORRIDO ! ! ! Jagdgeschwader 27

4510, didn't I bump into you last night where you were in a fight with an F4U piloted by Cobra412?

Strange, I had a conversation with Cobra412 later that night and he was contemplating unsubscribing too. I unsubscribed last night too.

I'm going to check out Pacific Fighters, the MA is a tragedy now. TOD might be good though, going to hang around for that.

Sorry to see ya go...  it sure has been a long time, even tho i only first met your online persona back in AW3 days... maybe 5 years ago.

whatever happened to WU anyway?
Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.

Sad day indeed.  SOUP taught me the FW waaay back in the old AW days.  I remember when I was a newbie and accidently fragged him ... I never admitted to it but I think he knew it was me and let me slide ;).  Salute my friend, I hope to see you again soon!

Cya Up!

Hate to see you go Soup, you afforded me many memorys, of dogfights from back then, to call upon from time to time, hope to see or hear of your good health & good fortune in the  future............happy vapor trails to your next quest

Thanks all for the nice words....

Maik... I still recall how your squad arrived in AW3 and chose JG27 as your name.... and how gracefully you accepted that there was already one... and changed to the Black Adders... Very Classy....


ROC...yeah has been awhile hasn't it? Lawd when did you first start?

Balsy... 1/2 gee... seems to me you've flown more than that.

GScholz... yes sir that was me...  fighting Cobra412.... he was a good fight..... until we ran into each other.....

Howitzer... thanks... appreciate the sentiment

Shane... I think AW3 came on around 1996 didn't it?  A bit longer than 5 years.... You're getting old dude.... WU is fine.. lives in his own crib ... boy is 23 years old now... hard to believe....  
Ran into us.. that wasn't ah.. when you were flying your F6 and WU and I were in 109Ks... and you ah.... "got lucky" ? Against BOTH of us at the same time...

Dawg.... Getting fragged by you... shoot almost an honor if that happened now.  Remember the friendly competition for squad honors tween the Nighters and the JGers...   Return... Never say Never... but I don't really envision it with the current game play ... I'll keep checking in on the board just to see how everyone is doing.

TC... Had some great ones we did.... back when that was the whole point...

Hornet .. back to you !

Stang... Looks like you are Geschwader Kommodore... don't let it die... build it bigger and better !  HORRIDO!

August... (laughs)  Was the air ever stale !
