First off, I'd like to apologize to the Hells Angels and everyone else who has been following Delirium's squad visits. For tthe first week of my visit or so, I was having film viewer problems and lost some films.
Secondly, I'd like to thank Delirium and all the squads who will participate for giving me this opportunity.
I now present, the ~Hells Angels~
Mega Squadrons not your thing? Not to worry! There is a home for you.
It can be found on vox 199 Rookland; Home of the ~Hells Angels~. Flying with these guys is a great experience. They play the game the way is was intended. The pilots of the ~Hells Angels~ are just here for fun. IF drama is your thing, you need not apply.
The ~Hells Angels~ were originally from the old CT. Guys who used to fly against eachothe, changed allegiances and joined up togeather. This tells you alot about their character. Instead of bashing their opponent because he shot them down, these guys actually formed long-lasting friendships and formed a squad.
I learned very quickly that the ~Hells Angels~ are a classy bunch. Having always been a red guy to them, I was surprised when they welcomed me with such hopitality. I was given access to their squad forum; an invite to the squad, and was treated like I had been there all along.
The first night as a ~Hells Angel~, The Squadron C.O. Bear76 explained to me what he expected of his members. As i said earlier, there is no tolerance for drama queens. Flying with them was very enjoyable.
The ~Hells Angels~ are an active squad. With members from various states, countries and continents, you're almost always likely to see a friendly name on vox.
Whenever I logged on and started looking about the map for squadies, I'd always find the blue dot of a squadron mate fighting the horde. It might be a full darbar v one man. These guys don't care, they're just here to have fun.

The ~Hells Angels~ do a little bit of everything. GVing, bombing, furballing, or base taking. They definately like to switch it up, which I think is important to try and keep the game different and refreshing.
The ~Hells Angels~ are very squad oriented. One particular time comes to mind. I was upping B-26s to hit ord at a close enemy base. A squadie; whom was flying an A-20 defending our base from a GV attack, dumped his ord and provided escort. He did an excellent job at that. 5 or 6 fighters upped to contest us... We both went home with 2 scalps.

:lol Cond00r, happy I got a chance to fly with you on vox <S>
This write-up doesn't do this squad justice. They're a great group, and I'd recommend them to anyone. My two weeks with them may have ended, but I will always look at them as squadies.
I didn't want to highlight anyone in particular, but as I said I lost some films. Telstar, Bucky, DaCooze, Solar, milvil...and anyone else I flew with these past two weeks, you're all great guys.
Thanks for having me gentlemen <S>!

Over the last two weeks, I had the opportunity to fly with some of the hottest sticks in Aces High. These guys were truly a pleasure to fly with, a squad I'll definately re-visit in the future.
I visited none other than 'The Few'. When I say some of the hottest cartoon pilots in-game, I mean it. They are not undefeated in the Squad Dueling League for nothing. Flying with these guys, my K/D ratio got a whole 1.0 better. They are so good, I had a hard time getting kills in because they mop the enemy up so effectively.
I've been on the other end of their fighter sweeps before, so it was a welcome change to fly on their side for a change.
The first morning I logged on,
'The Few' has members from all over the world. It is made up of mostly European players , but there is a wing of American players that go by the name of'The Eagle Aces'. Squadies could be found online whenever I logged on.
I personally love the idea of flying with people from all over the world. Aces High is wonderful in the fact that it brings WW2 aviation geeks from all over the world togeather. Where else would you have the chance to interact with people from the U.K., Finland, Australia, etc? (and many more countries)
My first morning scheduled to fly with the Few,Bruv119 (squad C.O.) taught me how to get set up with ventrilo. He made it easy for someone who isn't computer oriented like myself to figure it out. Soon I was up and flying. I was flying alongside Bruv and mike51. They just looked at the map, found the biggest red darbar, and started fighting.
That night when I got home, I logged on to what Bruv joked and called "The Many". There must have been 10-15 guys on ventrilo. Everyone was in Tank Town both GVing and furballing. This is where I found that getting kills around these guys may be a bit difficult. 'The Few' is definately a well oiled machine.
Having shot everyone down in TT to the point where they stopped upping, 'The Few' decided to fly a fighter sweep to a base that was being swarmed by enemies. We all picked our ride of choice and set off.

Furballing is not the only thing these guys do, however. There are a few die-hard GVers in the squad aswell. One night when there were no ground-battles going, COLLEEN got the squad togeather to run a B-25 raid on an enemy base.
Here's gwurzel. A few minutes after this he was doing loops and barrel rolls in his B-25, someone tell him it isn't a Spit! :lol

I'm really happy I got a chance to know these guys better. I know I'll pop on their ventrilo server and fly with them again.
I'd suggest this squad to anybody. There was not once in these last two weeks when I was bored playing the game. They're a refreshing group to fly with.
As I said in my past squad writeup, I consider these guys squadies of mine ever though my two weeks are up.
cheers guys, thanks for having me,
Buster :salute

I think I'm going to take a week or so break before I visit another squad. I've not yet picked who I'm going to visit yet.

Buster, the write up was a pleasure to read! I feel like a parent who just received praise from his child's/children’s teacher.
Yeah, we're that good! :cool:
-
good stuff B4!
more than welcome to pop on vent whenever.
Colleen always has some grand plan that will be crazy and stupid. Usually involves everyone getting killed, but the enemy will be hurting afterwards.
Enjoyed having you around :aok :salute
