JG 2

(warning, this post does not relate to 98 percent of the AH population)


I mean, in no specific order, Urchin, Wotan, Heinkel, Turbot, Lazerus, Drunky, Moot, Scott, AGJV44, Erlkonig, Leitwolf, Bradys5, Fork...

Never did I fly w/ a finer bunch of virtual pilots -- in skill and 'temperment', ain't the same these days.

Just for fun :)

"Old" JG2?  That is the "New" JG2 you are missing.

The old JG2 was guys like Ripsnort, Hblair, Me, Weazel, and about 250 other guys.  It was literally like 1/4 of AH at one point (not really, but sure felt like it).

I can remember in beta when far more than 1/2 the Knights on were all in JG2.  

Man, those huge formations were tons of fun.  I've never seen a formation of 15 109's or 190's since those days.

The "New" JG2 were all exceptional pilots, you guys should get back together.

Just how "old" are you refering to ???

Weazel was my squadie in the EZ Targets way back when..

How old is the question..

For there has been a few Jagdgeschwader 'Richthofen' in different venues..

If I could have a dime for every hour I spent in a 190 :)

I have my own personal preferences from another time, another place  ;)

..but that's just me

Well.... Wotan took over the reigns of JG 2 in AH about a year ago, he ran a tight ship *barf*.  As much as I liked it *puke*  I miss it...  

I want to duel Urchin!

P.S.  Drunky can't drink beer, he pretends and then barfs up the foam later.

Ahh I feel young again.  The old JG2 days were JUST before my time.  I hopped on in Tour 3 and joined Rip w/ the newly formed "experimental" Death Rattlers :D

Many AHers are luftweenies at heart (myself included!)
