Post by: JeepinAZ on February 22, 2008, 11:29:06 PM
Always a good time leveling strats. Now why he always lets me lead the second element is beyond me, but fun regardless (except I'm sure for the poor guys that have to follow me :D )

Talen does an outstanding job of leading bomber groups.  He's always very patient explaining the rules of the road to the newer folks that join up on the mission.  I honestly don't know how he keeps his patience with some of those squeakers that tag along.  He must have kids.....lol.

In the missions with him when he was bish, he did as good as FALCON23.
And if anyone could keep a whole mission full of squeakers and other random pilots NOT to mention squadies on vox is a good mission handler.
Still wish the AArch AAngelz were bish.... man that was fun :(

Ah ok..
The reason I asked is I chased a giant darbar (buff raid) to the knight city Thursday and got a couple of buff kills before one got my engine, thought it was this one :)

Here's a picture of the raid last night:

As you can see, bomber box #2 is out of formation greatly. But the drop was still successful.  


<--- lead bomber in top bomber box :D .

Hehe, thanks for the compliment batfink, but i try, and i enjoy running missions. It's what i do :D . Kinda like the CO position when i run them.

Haven't been in the 109 this tour like i normally would, been flying the pony with the 4th, but by all means i'm still a top candidate 109 stick :t

You belong in bomber wing. You're our Arthur "Bomber" Harris (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Travers_Harris). I will hear no more of this fighter nonsense! :D


(Not COLIN "bomber" Harris (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-9qZ4Zs6Ys), even though he was a much better guy at any party)

Looks like the 484th and 78'th I believe are in for tonights run as well.

I suggest we set a vox channel, and announce here about 1/2 an hour before we roll things like what arena, side ect.

well, as much as i would like for it to be in LWO, you guys know that orange fills up super quick, and some of the gents might not be able to get in.  As for vox, i'll drop in on the TS to talk about it.

AATalen's raids are epic, especially when the 4th flies cover.  That is one dedicated squadron.

I hope to join one of these missions again soon.  Tonight is out though.  Good luck
