ahhhhh I remember the formation quite well the 479th was born after the Fall out of the 86th Eliminators they were the good Ol Days players like TKOR, Tcat9 Reemo, No1/4 his Wife Booki, and Weadi just to name a few but I am happy with my new home with JG-11

I remember NO1/4 being one of the top scoring sticks when I first started in 96.

Did some digging. Found this.

http://www.taphilo.com/jg26/

Was in 52nd Kiwi from 2001 on and Kiwi Red in AW3 and AWMV before that from about 1996. Joined 71 (Eagle) Squadron in about 2008 when the Kiwi Red leader retired from flying. Currently on hiatus.

Most of the people I enjoyed winging with have disappeared over the years.

Nice find, palef.  Thank you.

Seems like more than a few people are finding their way back into the game in anticipation of the next release.   Hope to see you up!

Thank you Oboe, I do miss it, but it became a sort of tedious habit instead of a pleasure.

I'm hoping a decent break and the update will rekindle the flames.

Using the squad list link that Fugitive provided, I examined all 700+ squads listed.   More than half the list contained defunct squads, where the squad CO is no longer a player or member of the squad.  I eliminated these and sorted the remaining by total membership.  Where squads have exceeded the 32-member limit, I combined all the squads into a single squad.

My congrats to the COs of these squads for building such large and in some cases, very long-lasting organizations, and best wishes for the health and strength of your squads.   I really do think that a healthy squad environment is one of the factors in Aces High lasting so long.

Might see the CJ number jump when the new update hits. :)  Seen a few of the guys becoming a bit more active. :D
