The virtual Lentolaivue 34 (LLv34) was founded in last millennium on Nov 27th, 1998.
Some of us will be celebrating the coming anniversary on a cruise, but we will invite everyone to some "piece of cake" during this week.

We are wishing to receive some congratulation cards, which show how you grab a piece of cake (example from last night below)

Back in AH1 times when the old flight model was still in place and I was in my first days of AH I recall that almost the only guys flying the 109G2 with full dedication where from this finn squad I had never heard of nor in the online skies or in historical references.

Soon I was to look for what was the historic LLv34, and found out about their skill and their achievements between 1939-44, and about their great pilots.

Soon ,aswell, I was to cross paths with the online squadron. I happened to fight a 109G2 over one of the old-time canyons in my trusty 190A8. I got crushed by some guy called Camo. Who proceeded to smash me each time we crossed paths for the following two years, and with whom I had some memorable sorties winging together.


Congrats on your 10th anniversary. LLv34 has always been one of the squads I've most respected and (when in a different country than them) feared while I've been flying AH. Class acts, clean players, and exceptional pilots fun to fly with and deserving the highest recognition when flying against them.

<S!>

Grats BK and LLV, its been a while since we first tangled in EAW.
You guys were always worth one helluva fight, you always used realistic wingman tactics which were fun.

<S!> Thank you Ram for the kind words. However, I think I was the one being repeatedly crushed. If not by your guns, then it was the canyon walls. :D

The celebrating crowd in Stockholm, at Army Museum. Falder is missing from the pic, he joined us later.
Hmmm... what kind of secrets is RaimoK carrying?

Duke, Jompa, Illu, BlauKreuz, Camouflage, RaimoK:
(http://koti.welho.com/skukkone/kuvia/squadron.jpg)


During our squadron's 10-year anniversary cruise Lentolaivue 34 received a great surprise memorial gift from "RaimoK", a WW2 airplane relic trophy still unnamed. It was immediately decided that we would use this trophy as a yearly award to a distinguished pilot of our squadron. Thanks Raimo! Truly appreciated :)

(http://koti.welho.com/skukkone/kuvia/trophy.jpg)


----------------------------------------------

Our first prize-winner is one of the most active pilots. He holds the squadron traditions high with his boyish enthusiasm and with his fighting spirit on War Missions. While having often been the only non-Finn on squadron nights he has patiently endured the Finnish radio chatter for nearly 10 years. He truly has earned his place in the spotlights as the first "Kurikkalentäjä" ("Club Pilot") of Lentolaivue 34. CongratulationS! to our newly promoted Captain... "Jompa".

T!hanks guyS!

I notice it's time for me to start visiting this board more often.  :D

I feel truly honoured! A big and snappy ~SALUTE~to RaimoK for making the most good looking piece of scrap i have ever seen (even my wife likes it!!), and also a big and snappy ~SALUTE~to all of you virtual brothers-in-arms (and not to forget the brave adversaries) that make this online air combat thingie so darn fun.

I also want to thank BlauKreuz and Camouflage for inventing the War Mission; I'm an addict!

You guys rock!  :salute
