Thanks, Reb! Being that I was rather less-than-average pile-it (back when - no doubt even lesser than now), I try to make up for it with website-dweebery.  :cool:

I like the official squad sites (very functional and they look great). I just wanted to provide some additional multimedia content.

Welcome back Arlo :aok

We can whip you back in shape in no time, Scrubbing barnacles is great cardio :lol.  I'd do it, but somebody has to officiate the pillow fighting :D.  You wanted to bunk with BC right?

Argh. Barnacle Bill? Has BC grown a pair of double Ds and sports long red hair now? Some guys definition of pillows can vary.  :lol

P.S. You have a great deal of faith in my abilities. Previously, I worked long and hard at being the pile-it that Reschke died while trying to rescue regularly.  :airplane:

I've seen your kill-streak. You managed to avoid it a few times. (Good shootin, Tex!)

I'll settle for five and a trap. My wingie will have to have the patience of Lt. Job and the
sense of humor of Captain Hawkeye.

Question is, how much faith do you have in my training ability?  Give me the time, and the ability will happen :D, either that or you will continually HO me like most of my former/present students, squaddies, and everyone else :furious  :lol.

Not actively recruiting, a lot will depend if we decide to up our FSO numbers or not.  Right now we stay pretty close to our max numbers on most FSO nights.  We have a few old squaddies coming back in like Arlo, which we obviously make room for if at all possible.  Try to catch me in the TA, either Tuesday or Wednesday night at 9 central time, I can give you a kinda informal personal/flight interview.  Not saying there's anything open, but it's a way to get your foot in the door, plus some hog practice.  Is Skull_101 you ingame name as well?

Yes, but its Skull001, no underscore.
9 CST would be 10EST right? Just making sure. You fly from any particular strip in the TA?
