Got my name from reading a very very good book. I highly recommend this book to those who like Sci-fi. If any of you guys are familiar with Geoffery Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, this book follows a similar format. But the plots in this book will blow your mind away.

... yes I named myself after a P2P program, I couldn't think of anything else when I was first asked for a CPID back in the day. So I just went with my favourite P2P program at the time. Of course  I got teased a lot by online gamers about my CPID, but it just makes pwning them that much sweeter.

I got interested in the 80th Headhunters during a scenario in Airwarrior.  When it came time to start the Headhunters in AH I wanted to use the history to find a good ID. Corky Smith was an 80th pilot.  His 2nd P38 was a 38G named Corky Jr.  There was a nice image of him landing Corky Jr with a single engine. Considering how if I land at all it's usually single engined and broken, my ID became CorkyJr. It seemed the logical choice :)

I got my name after recalling what my dad said their callsigns were when they went downrange. I don't know where the number came from,but it works, although I've had many people ask me where Ruler1 is and others have told me there was a Ruler a long time ago,lol

Mine was given to me by a real good friend,its Lakota for dog.I imagine it was given to me because i have a lot of Native American in me and i own three husky's, and would prefer to hang with dogs over people any day.And yes my profile pic is one of my puppers.

Then I took a guess as to how good of a virtual pilot I would be  :D

That's exactly what I had in mind when creating my first ID - "Lusche" is a German term for a sucker, a looser, a weak & unskilled person. But soon I realized that it's a bad ID for a game where 99% of the player base can't pronounce such an easy German word at all :lol

My favorite kind of music. I opted for this spelling thinking that "Blues" would probably not be available.

I started AH 2-1/2 yrs ago as Kjunflyr, the squad I joined already had a Cajunn. One night there was a lot of confusion as to who people were talking to, him or me. He said "there sure is a lot of coon***es playing AH" so I changed my callsign to coona55(all in caps) as a joke for what he said. Got reported by someone, got muted, and changed to DaCoon. Since I'm from south La., it seemed a pretty good one. Lots of squeekers ask if I got my callsign from South Park but that episode didn't air for about a year after I had already took the name.
