I need 7 brave, dependable pilots to fly La-5's with me in the mighty 229 IAD sqadron in the upcoming "Red Storm - Krupp Steel" scenario.

Come be part of the Red Storm with me. Let's fly a great dogfighter and battle some Germans!

LA5 would be a fun ride for the scenario, wish i could be dependable :uhoh

If you can commit to flying in each frame and keep that commitment -- that's what I mean by "dependable". I don't care if you are a womanizer, gambler, and troublemaker in town after missions. A bunch of our pilots are like that! :)
-
I'd like to fly in the scenario too, I just can't commit myself to getting 3 hours sleep before the event (I work nights).
It really is too bad, looks like the Russians are vastly outnumbered according to the AH Event sign up page.
edit: it is disappointing, considering FSO routinely has more people than scenarios. You'll never get a better opportunity to fly with people you don't know and some of us have made lasting friendships with scenarios.

Hurrah!

If it doesn't fill up soon we will have to resort to historically accurate recruitment policies.
Kermit's propaganda machine is a dangerous weapon for those weak at the knees.

Ivan Nikitovich Kozhedub, top-scoring allied ace.

His most-flown weapon? The La-5!
Comrades -- it is time to rally.
Join me in the glorious 229 IAD, and together we will make history!

Total # russian pilot slots for scenario... 152
Total # german pilot slots...... 144
Math not your strong suit? :D

Can't wait to have an LA-5 in the gunsights of my 190!!! :t
-
Ok Brooke, you got 1 more really bad fighter pilot here...was gonna sign up on the Axis side but the Ruskky side is outnumbered as of today. Send the cookies to the Nazi horde with some strychnine on them.
Allies: 70 players registered out of 152 available positions.
Axis: 116 players registered out of 144 available positions.
-
Just put in for a B-25 slot, but if you need fighter pilots I'd be up for flying the P-39 as well. :)

You should stay in B-25's, as they are your first choice and are a very important role in the scenario.
It must be, out of the thousands of Aces High players, that a mere SIX MORE can join me in La-5's for glorious battle! :)
-
Ok Brooke, you got 1 more
Comrade! Welcome to the team!
Please start flying the La-5 as much as you can in the Main Arena.
I need 6 more brave La-5 pilots to join us! :salute

Allies: 70 players registered out of 152 available positions.
Axis: 118 players registered out of 144 available positions.
Maybe reading isn't yours? And actually, that's shot up by ten or fifteen players on their side since last I looked.
-
Gentlemen, if you don't mind, I'm trying to recruit six more La-5 pilots into my 229 IAD squadron, not trying to host a debate. :aok
-
Can't wait to have an LA-5 in the gunsights of my 190!!! :t
So the Germans are putting tail guns in their 190's for this battle? ;)
-
Nothing to debate, just illustrating the need for pilots and keeping your topic at the top. :)

Like I said, Moray, I feel bad the numbers are looking one sided. Makes me want to get out of bed with 3 hours sleep to fly for the under dogs.
(btw Moray, that was some pretty big 'fail' on your part)
-
Have those darn deadlines around the same time @ work and school.
Otherwise I would fly with this squadron, those numbers are not looking great.

A brief allegorical interlude.
A guy stands there, chatting up a gal, when a few of his pals come up behind him.
A first says, "Fred, buddy, I really hope you get a date with her. It's been like a year since you last had a date. That's totally not right."
A second says, "Actually, you're wrong. It's only been four months."
The first says, "No. *You* are the one who's wrong. Here -- this is a picture at his last date, and the timestamp clearly says . . ."
Meanwhile, the woman has fled the scene. :cry
-
And now back to our regularly scheduled program.
La-5's. Yes -- La-5's and the glorious 225 IAD.
We shall cut a bloody swath through the skies above Germany!
Six more dedicated pilots are needed. Only six more. Who is with me?
For glory and the Motherland!

[. . .]
La-5's. Yes -- La-5's and the glorious 225 IAD.

Alright. There have been 450 reads of this topic. Two have stepped up. You other 448 people -- time to put down that corn dog, turn off the Slap Chop infomercial, and come register to fly with the Red Storm!

Yes, you can feel it working. . . .
You can feel the lure of the Red Storm. . . .

However, there are still spots available on the Soviet side in other groups.
For fighter folks, there are La-7's and Yak-9's left -- and P-39's for the P-39 enthusiasts out there.
For bomber folks, there are B-25's.
For attack pilots, there are A-20's and Il-2's.
For tank commanders, there are T-34/85's.

(By the way, my animated gif above shows all of the planes and tanks available for our side. A hypnotic, stroboscopic pattern of excellent planes and tanks. It cannot be resisted.)

Also, to the Germans, I say:
Все ваши базы относятся к нам!

And our battlecry shall be "Leoniiiiiiiiiiiid Jenkinsev!"
