Since Jay Robbins was a Headhunter, I'll do my best to drag as many Headhunters as possible from AH into this one. Green trim 38Js please :)
BTW, the 80th FS P38J skin is Jay Robbins "Jandina". Might be a good on for the Snapshot if you can set it up that way. Default 20th FG skin just doesn't do it
-
9 pm here... will try to make it. Don't see any problems. So the Jandina skin will be available in the SEA??
-
Sorry, but the skin will not be available in the SEA:(
-
Sweet I can't wait =D

the skin is available in the SEA, but they require the use of the mission planner so the skin will not be available for the flight.
-
Looks like this one will be fun.
-
Ill try to be there. But I have a makeover that evening. If Im there I will look damn fine boys:)
