Cool idea Filth..

I can't think of anyone who is not already on these lists though.

I'll look forward to reading these when you publish... But I do agree with some here that the ride alongs probably won't truely represent the way the guy flys...  Everyone on their best behavior and what not.

How about an interview with a pilot and an interview with a squad. You can fly along with them and see how they work together. Report on the chemestry of the squad as well as the effectiveness of the squad. You discuss differant guys in the squad.  I Guarantee you will have a good funny story from ~~The Unforgiven~~ People like Plissken, Kermit, Herblife, Betty, Wannbe, Tinmanx and of coarse Me! Nomde and Yucca and thier crew have flown with us and they will tell ya that we are a hoot. And we geterr done! LOL I think this story idea is a great idea I hope to see an article on pilot and a story on a seperate squad. Just my 2 cents :aok

Filth Interviews HTC

Hello everyone, this month I had the chance to interview the man himself..... Hitech.
I travelled to the new office's via P51, I knew that I was close when I found myself being Vulched on landing at Dallas airport, climbing from the wreckage of the old war bird I took the time to hold up a Black sign with "Nice Kill Ya Big Vulch-Tard" written in 70 point white Tahoma font before climbing into Skuzzy's 2006 Lexus IS250

I was mildly embarrassed as I said hello to the Skuzmister only to find Carrie at the wheel. I asked where Skuzzy was as I apologised to her for the mistake and she politely pointed to the rear seat where Skuzzy was furiously working the keyboards of five laptops simultaneously. "Working on network issues I asked".Skuzzy grunted and motioned his head towards Carrie who enlightened me by saying  "He is actually moderating the current BK threads" .

Pulling away from the fire trucks and the burning wreckage, the furious typing in the back seat momentarily stopped, I saw Skuzzy briefly look out the back window, he returned to his typing pausing only to say "Carrie would be be so kind". She replied with a node in the rear vision mirror and then asked me to pass her bag which was at my feet. From it she pulled a small object that I thought was a dark green apple put it to her mouth and then threw it up in to the air "what was that I asked ?" "Grenade" she casually replied .

The WTF? expression on my face must have been clear as she again pointed to the back of the car, my confusion as to how a small yet lethal explosive device would help Skuzzy in he efforts was short lived, for behind us the Vulch-Tard was flying low over the runway attempting to up his rank by with a GV kill on Lexus. Carrie's timing was perfect, the grenade exploded bringing the Vulchers short flight to an eventful end....

To be continued

I agree. Cant really put pilots hee on a scale as the rankin system here is at best. Not a true indicator of ones skill.

I've faught some great pilots you rarely see ranked in the top 500 that were by far better pilots then many of those consistanty ranked in the top 20.

Ranking here is all about working the system and knowing how to milk  it.

But even then There are alot of...charactors in the gameThat arent particularly uber pilots but I have found amusing to hang out and play with  I wouldnt mind seeing interviewed.
Just to see what they have to say LOL

Thank you Wolfala for taking time out of yesterday to allow me to ride with you and do the interview.  Where the interview was done over teamspeak and I dont do short hand, the answers and questions will be direct.  The results will be released in Sim's newsletter. probably later on this week.

No problem. Sorry the last mission was so lengthly - must've been up about an hour according to my watch. 45 minutes of patrol and then boom - run head on into a high alt mission. Guess thats how it is supposed to go - atleast the other guys got out without much of a fuss and we broke up the base porking party.

S!
