here here <S> 999... ET37 is our guy for the rooks. i join his missions at least 3 times a week. its an honor everytime too. ive said it before about ET, he uses real verbiage that they used in ww2 and korea, bc he was a bomber pilot in Korea. it makes you feel like its real in a way. im sure there are guys like me, who have a part of them that wishes we were alive and flying in ww2. you watch the old documentaries, and get jacked up to come online and basically, like a grown kid, pretend that you are a real flyer in ww2. you try to do the tactics they did bc its as close as we will get to that sort of grandeur. for me, the mission runners are some of the only ways to use tactics they wouldve used in real ww2 and it gives me a chance to pretend its real and get an inkling of how it mustve felt to be a real ww2 flyer. i also think the missions plant a seed of interest in wartime aviation. some folks may do a mission and then wonder if thats how they were done in ww2. they go and read stories or actual mission statements or something to find out. and all the sudden they know at least one thing more than they did. im a big fan of the mission leaders.
