The very first time I actually got involved in the game and it's "events", was the "white knuckled" Battle of Britain.(BoB-2015?) 
The second time this game got me "hooked" was another scenario. (Battle Over The Winter Line)

Dubious, are you going to fly in the October 22nd "Tunisia 1943" scenario?

I hope so!

It will be GLORIOUS!  :aok

Here's a list of what spots are still available.  Also, if none of the open spots appeals to you, since it is 12 hours of battle, and folks very likely won't all be flying the same hours, you can join the reserve list to fly in whatever group you want whenever it has an opening.

Just noticed I have reached 100K Late War / Main Arena kills last tour.
Maybe that's a 'crowning'?  :joystick:

Pulling the 364th FG together for DGS II.  Folks thought that mix wouldn't work, but they bought in and I had a blast.   As a little kid first reading about WW2 fighter pilots, the dream was always to take Mustangs to Berlin.  I'd never had a Mustang group in all the scenarios I'd been a GL.  Throw in all the history we got into for that one and it fulfilled that little kid dream

SAPP, the 80th and the 474th FG in the First DGS are tied for second
I do believe you and I would've been the best of friends had we been born at the same time and the same area.  :)

My achievements are as follows: for the MA's it was joining G3MF and completing the Marseille achievement, he is my favorite 109 pilot.

For scenarios it's a tie. The first one was DGSII and joining the 355th FG. I haven't had a scenario quite like that one where the history was there, and to me at time it did feel like I was living in that era. With our own personal planes, and my journal entry writings, plus promotions and medals it was awesome. The fighting of Germany in Mustang was always a dream of mine, and I felt like I did that through that scenario. There were plenty of white knuckle fights, and I was worried I wasn't going to make it back at times. This scenario is where the Ditto vs BFOOT1 rivalry began, and it still continues to this day!

The other tie for scenarios would be the most recent scenario we did Battle of the Dniepper. That was my most successful scenario is a GL and for personal victories. I believe I scored 18 victories overall and JG 52 had 60 victories overall. :rock

I've been challenging myself this year in fighter combat and have been a top 4 ranked fighter or better for 10 months in a row. My average is around 2.3 :)

I just like to challenge myself
Not that it correlates to actual skill or anything   ;)

Going on a 398 kill streak over the course of a month in the P-51 without being shot down. The streak ended on literally the last day of the month at around 11pm when I went to the bathroom on climb out and came back to the sound of 50cals from a Jug on my 6. In a bizarre coincidence, the streak 'technically' ended, at least as far as the K/D stat was concerned, when I disco'd at exactly 351 kills.

I got accused of being Skyyr the other week after I shot down a couple of 'names'.  I think that counts as an achievement    :devil

Lasting 14 yrs in the game. Having my attention span last that long for anything is a miracle.
