Hotdiggity damn Arlo. Thanks for the link. I was going to search it out today. I think I am going to list you as an honorary VF-17 member man for all that work/help you have given.

No problem at all. I'm a big VF-17 fan. I've even dug up my old paperback copy of Blackburn's book just to refresh myself on their exploits. I'd be honored to fly with you guys whenever we get a chance to hook up. I don't think Krush and co. will mind.

p.s. While lookin' for that pic I ran across some interesting model and sim (not sure which) images.

Looks like CFS2 but it could be Target:Rabaul since they are doing some custom birds but I doubt that is the game. Probably CFS2.

Another one of Blackburn. No he's not doing what you think.

Hola reschke.

I will hopefully be on tonight starting at about 7-8 pm est. I got your email about the simladder but am unfamiliar with what it is. If you get time maybe you could fill me in on that.

Reschke · « **Reply #56 on:** February 12, 2003, 01:05:05 PM »

Hey zroostr.

I will be on but it will be a bit later than your time (8-9pm CST) . Also Aldoosi will be on as well and so should a couple of others from the squadron. When I get there and fly with you I will get you added to the squadron list and fill you in on the H2H dueling ladder.

The "Blackburn-Boyington Battle E trophy". To be awarded to the best overall AH Navy or Marine Corps Corsair squadron.

It was good flying with you and alDOOsi last night for the first time and getting some feel for how things will go in flight. If you get the films done before flight time just send them over to me so I can look at them.
