I'd like to add that anyone considering on joining Funked's squad is in for a treat, if you want to be lead by one of the best, this is your squadron. I highly endorse it! (Like my word means anything!), seriously, want to learn to be a lean, mean fighting machine?? His squad is it, let go of those apron strings and become a man!
Go Funked! (but don't get too many aces signed please, I LIKE my 190 intact in one piece when I RTB!)
Funked, did you post this in Squadrons BBS too? You should, might find a few in there as well.

hehehe hey rip - just FYI (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
WB members of 303 and 315 will be flying in AH with 308 (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
I didn't want to move 303/315 to AH because of our Mac brethen, so when Funked had this brilliant idea ... (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) now we can fly anywhere (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

This reminds me of an old hunting story. The same group of guys would meet out at my property in Montana for Elk hunting each fall, all of us coming from different parts of the country, all of us with different P/U trucks. There was one friend that had a 2-wheel drive truck, and loaded with gear. He "Had" to have his gear, even though it was excessive gear. So, we would compromise by only going to certain areas that his truck could 'get' to, i.e. he had 2-wheel drive, we had 4-wheel drive. After a certain number of years, the area we hunted became quite 'popular' since it was accessible to any vehicle. We decided to go up higher in the mountains (I belong to a property owners association where we have hunting/fishing rights to 10,000 acres).
Well, what were we going to do with "Charlie" and all his gear, and his 2-wheel drive truck that wouldn't make it to the 'better' happy hunting grounds? We gave him a choice...cut down on the gear you bring, and put it in our trucks, or, get a 4-wheel drive truck so you can enjoy the good hunting.
At first, he was alittle disturbed, but then he decided to get a 4-wheel drive so he could continue his hunting with our group.
Moral of the story, don't stay behind with people that don't have the equipment to keep up with the group, they will change if they have the desire to...and they won't get pissy about it.
Makes me think of the Mac guys. They get so defensive when something isn't written for a Mac..hey, here's a clue...BUY A PC AND ENJOY THE HUNTING!

Well Ripsnort - i guess we have a different approach to this problem (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Guys of Northolt Wing are one big group of friends. We keep in touch outside of the sim as well as within. I'm not going to tell 30% of the group to go scratch just because they don't have 2000$ to blow on a PC (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Besides - S3's and SL's are still in WB - and those events are what makes any sim worthwhile.
So with 308 - we can stay together and fly in AH if we like to, without alieneting our Mac friends.

I understand FD-ski, glad you guys worked something out to keep 'together', that's the main thing, not losing touch. G'luck!
-
Are you telling me that members of the 303 and the 315 are going to form a squadron led by funked?
Oh Boy! This is not good! It will be a Rook squadron changing to the Knights, right????
Rip, we really don't be need to be flying against these guys, do we??? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Ah hell! Such is life! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Funked! Welcome to your new squadron in the skys of AH! Hope to see ya soon!
Wait! That's not entirely true. Hope to never see ya! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Good Luck!!! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Thanks for the kind words guys.
As Fd-Ski sorta explained, we never leave anyone behind. That applies to computer formats as well as the arena. If a squaddie is in trouble we will save him or die trying. Sometimes bad for the stats, but it's the proper way to do things!
Here's a shot of 308's first kill. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Hehehe Maniac, I guess the photo is a little decieving. I was actually about 30 degrees off his nose, hitting him on his wings and tail. Wasn't a true HO because he never got his guns on me. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
MUAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA!

Hey everyone,
308 had our first squad night together last Wednesday, and it was terrific!
The guys are all quality people, very friendly and highly skilled(except for me, of course).
Anyone looking for a home, I highly recommend giving us a try. Did I forget to mention that we'll be flying the Typhoon and Lancaster when they arrive? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
