It's the guys that complain and order things that I just ignore.

That's funny.

there's always one guy like that. haha.  I just kind of keep quiet.

The other day I was up in my pony over an enemy base with some action. There was some guy on vox berating others because he wanted to capture the base. 'do you guys not know what you're doing???' and other things like that.

I wanted to say, 'yeah... I've got like two hours to play and I just want to shoot at some planes'..

I mean, not everyone has a mission. I'll help when I can - and I love interacting with other people on vox. but I'm just usually wanting to do what I want to do for a couple of hours.

If there's some kind of fight going on - that's all I really care about.

:)

When that type of “air boss” is yapping, it’s usually time to move to another base and let him/her play by themselves.

There is no running the Pigs On The Wing, rather I am lucky to be part of this great group of friends for over 17 years. It is all about fun, the organization comes from flying and dying together for such a long period of time. OINK

I remember when I joined the pigs, waystin would make me run 5 miles in the snow up hill with nothing but boots and a leather flight jacket.  that was just to warm up  :cheers: :cheers:

just wanted to add that if someone ASKES me to do something, I almost always do it. It's the guys that complain and order things that I just ignore.

With me it's "Can you take out the ack at the town at XX?"  I have no idea, but if I'm not already up doing else, I'll say, "I can try."  I don't think a lot of people realize that I've only been in AH since October.  Half the time when I get a B24 into the air I go, "How about THAT?"

Always had fun with POTW and FreeBirds and their missions. It was even better when they worked together. It often wasn’t hording either as there were enough players to mount good defense.

Ahh the old days.

Lol.

Hey, I have an idea!

What if all of the squadron commanding officers get together and make a private form over here and then I could be the leader of that.

So I would be like the supreme Commander and I would keep everybody very strictly in line from that platform.

Does that sound good to everybody? Good okay awesome! Let's make it happen!

I used to join in with the FB's when they had a mission back in AH2. It was always a hoot.  One time we drove M-18's and M-3's across one sector of terrain to take an air field up north. It took 20-25 minutes to drive up there.

Total surprise. We captured the base really fast because everyone had an assignment. There were no uppers as we shut down the entire base quickly. The FB's are a great bunch of guys. I am sorry to see many have moved on.



I have not seen Crabby in years. I still see FBBob online from time to time.

Bobn was the one guy I could NOT get along with.  He got (whoever) to rig it so that a bomber pilot couldn't jump to a gunner position on level auto pilot.  One night I'm in a B25 and here come Bobn.  So I rolled and dived, jumped to the top turret and blew him out of the sky.  He was extremely mad and accused me of 'gaming the game.'  Alas, I heard Bobn passed away and the powers that be at WBs now assign him as a random drone on bomber missions.
