Often, whenever someone blows me out of the sky I wonder;
"Who was that guy?, How old is he?, How long has he been flying in sims?"
So I thought that it would be really cool if we could all find out about each other on one post. Please respond to as many of the following questions as you wish. Be as brief or thorough as you like;

Your Aces High call sign? It's significance?
AirScrew. I was a dental tech for 20 years in the USAF. One of my many additional duties was Flight Dentistry NCO, I worked with the Flight Medicine guys to schedule pilots dental exams and work around the flying and training schedules. Anyway we always referred to the pilots as Wingnuts and airscrews. Wingnuts was taken already. I also found out a few weeks ago looking at some plans for P47 or P51 that an airscrew is also part of a plane, located somewhere between the prop and the engine, no idea what it does.

Do you have any other connection to aviation or WWII?
My grandfather was a tank mechanic in Europe served under Patton. Only things I remember him talking about was being at the Battle of the Bulge, trying to fix tanks while Patton kept pushing forward, and that Patton was a real SOB but the men respected him.
My Dad was in the AF post Korea to Mid 70's, and did weather for awhile, then worked air operations, and Forward Air Controller and finally a recuiter.
My wife was an avoinics tech on F-111's and EF-111's for 6 years at Lakenheath and Mountain Home.
Myself, I have taken pictures of planes, studied, read, built models, gone to hundreds of airshows and museums and dreamed of flying since I was 9. And someday before I die I will fly.
Other interesting things about yourself.
Although I was a dental tech for 20 years,because of all those "additional duties" I felt I was more than just a "dental assistant". I have a military license to drive everything from a M1A1 Jeep to field ambulances, 21/2 trucks, buses, forklifts upto 32k forklift used by the Marines. I got training from Special Forces 2 weeks each summer for 10 years (4 years by Marines, 3 years by Special Forces) on perimter defense, booby traps (finding them and setting them), orienteering (map & compass), marshalling helicopters, and radio communications. I did everything from cutting the grass, to systems admin for 80 users and their pc's.

Reschke: Always had some variation on it since I started flying online in AirWarrior back in the early days of high dollar flight sim time. Also as a bit of a tribute to Willi Reschke and after reading the story of his fight at low alt with a Tempest in the closing days of WW2 I thought is would be cool to have that name.

I got my "Technical Computer Engineer" degree from the University of Salamanca a few years ago.
I have started studying this year to upgrade to the full blown Computer Science degree (if only so I can pull more $ from my employer)
What are your hobbies?
Lots, so I'm not very dedicated to any of them:
Wasting my time w. the computer (anything not job related is fine)
Reading (fiction, history, books I randomly pick... anything, I devoured a book a day when I was 17).
Modelling (in fact i buy aircfaft and AFV models, then let them rust in their box).
Learning foreign languages (english, french, some japanese, now having a go at russian, german will be next)
Playing guitar (I suck)
Reading web boards... this one is my current hard addiction... i can spend 10-12 hours straight lurking at every conceivable web forum (sad isn't it)
and many more things that cought my interest for too little time to mention here
What other flight sims have you been involved in? Your call sign and squad in that sim?
AH was my first online sim. I used the 'catalan' callsign in wwiiol while I could stand it.
I buy nearly every WWII flight sim that comes out, but barely play them. Single player stuff has become sad and shallow since I found AH.
My first flight "sim" was SWOTL, and I still consider it's full campaing mode unsurpassed.
Do you have any other connection to aviation or WWII?
Sadly not :( there's little affordable private/general aviation here in Spain,
flight instruction makes sense only if you intend to be a commercial pilot, and I would have to mortgage my bellybutton for 20 years to get a license and any flight time
Other interesting things about yourself.
Nothing more... i'm a pretty boring guy
