Air Warrior Question...
« on: August 04, 2005, 10:10:40 AM »
Some of you former AW'ers may remember the guy with the mustache in the breifing room. I always joked that he looked like Robert Preston, (The Music Man guy, or the guy from Last Starfighter for you children). Yesterday I read that Preston was an Intelligence Officer in the AAC and would regularly give briefings before missions.

Is it possible the guys at Kesmai knew this and modeled the guy to look like Preston? Anyone know?

Flossy had a crush on him.  No one could bear to tell her the guy was gay (his b/f was the co-pilot in one of the bombers).



Oh, and I'm sure someone could answer your question.  But then we'd have to kill you.  Some things are better left alone.  ;)

We'd have to ask GE to be absolutely sure, but I'd say it's just a coincidence.

He probably just took the generic face he used for everyone and added a mustache.

I *do* know, though, that the face usually used in AW was a scanned image of the Unibomber wanted poster.

He was a perv.

He was playing pocket pool.

And it was Darn Near Impossible to keep Flossy's attention on the mission briefing with him fiddling!
