We really need some Corsair pilots
« on: March 21, 2021, 01:30:38 AM »
We really need some Corsair pilots next Saturday (March 27) at 3 pm Eastern for Battle of Leyte.

Do you like the Corsair?

Can you join us?

The battles so far have been great fun, but we have some guys who can't make it next week, and we need more Corsair pilots.

I know a couple people who fly corsairs. I will put the word out.

Allies are having lots of fun.

The current group of Corsair pilots are great guys and very fun to fly with.  It's just that several pilots can't make frame 4, and I want to make sure the group is filled out.

TC and DmonSlayr, come on in for Saturday!  :aok

Real world interference, don’t think I’ll be able to get back home in time. Same yesterday and had to leave earlier, sucks because I’m really enjoying this scenario and flying the F4U in any event is rare.

Pretty much the same thing for me.

I'm still trying to figure a way out of the RL stuff so I can finish this scenario off.

I've been flying but will have to miss frame 4 due to real life interference, I made most of 3, but the last one I have honey do's that preclude it.  Keep it high, keep it fast, and tear the Ki-84's a new one!

So we need a 3rd?  Are we going to need any more?

To help the f4u group close out the frame?

I think, in total, we need a few new Corsair pilots.

So far, we have TC, maybe Violator.  We need a couple more guys, I think.

Whats the mission duration estimate for the last frame? 4 hours? I can make 3pm eastern but not sure I can play around that time longer than an hour

Hey Brooke,  after a few phone calls and being online tonight in the game, I am pretty much sure I got it all covered with Violators' help...we're good to go
