how did you pick your name tag, here is why I changed mine

[Tracerfi]

I have had to many IDs to count but  Tracerfi was suppose to be Tracerfire but at the time i did not know of he 8 character rule so i just left out the re because i could not think of Anything else. And the call sign i have now is Wespe which a heard is German for Wasp (not sure if that is true) but i like it 

Wespe

[999000]

<------Somebody has to be the number dweeb! <S>

[Hap]

During 1997, I friend showed me Air Warrior.  I picked "hap" because it's one syllable.  Had the name ever since albeit with a few variation here and there.

[Tank-Ace]

Mine is a reference to a book character, Heinrich Jager.

[Triton28]

Long ago, on the largest moon of the planet Neptune, there was a meeting of the supreme Triton council.  Weeks of deliberation concluded that all Triton's should be differentiated numerically.  A game of Twister was commenced to decide who would have the lowest number.  Triton1 was the victor.  I came in a dismal 28th.  

  T1, sir.

[JimmyD3]

My BBS user name is what I was called when I worked on the Trans-Alaska Pipeline, my in game name "Kenai77" is the name of the town Kenai in Alaska, where we moved to in 1977.

[Schen]

My last name is Schenher, while overseas a Warrant that I worked for and greatly admired started calling me schen after one op and it stuck, I admired him because of his leadership style he earned his respect not expected it, was fair and tough, I was proud to have served with him. now its a nickname more then anything and what I choose as my handle.

[BFOOT1]

Well since my dad and I have always shared an account we had to agree on a call sign. We have a '89 challenger ski boat with the name Barefoot running along the side. So for the last 12 years I've been bfoot1 

[Auger]

You can probably figure it out without me telling you.

[BluBerry]

I chose Zoney because it is a nickname given to people from Arizona visiting San Diego which is our popular vacation spot.

I played with that name for 20 years.

Then, I wanted a change and wanted to make a commitment to JG11 and Luftwaffe pilots.  I wanted to also make the commitment to Luftwaffe aircraft exclusively.  So I chose Hartmann, the greatest ace the world has ever seen with over 350 kills, and a survivor of WWII.  Frankly I was shocked when I typed in "Hartmann" checking for available names and it was there.  Grabbed it, shoved it inside my jacket and ran from the store.

 

[coombz]

I was Umbra8 when I first started flying AH, inspired by a book I had read recently

But after my first week or so, being on ventrilo with squaddies etc, it just seemed weird being called 'Umbra' and not what I have used in every other computer game and what has been my real life nickname for years and years

so...coombzy    (my last name is Coombes irl)
