Friday Squad Ops is doing a "simulated" Stalingrad Air Lift in November.

November 1st, 8th and 15th.

Friday Squad Ops is a registered squad event, so to participate you must be in a registered FSO squad.

If you are interested in participating but not in a registered squad, contact me or look here for squads who may be looking for more pilots here.

If you have a squad that might be interested, please check here for more info:

I appears to offer MUCH more than the typical "just meet in the middle" and duke it out. I hope altitude restrictions will be in place (and enforced!).

not unless you're in a squad that is registered to fly in the fso or you can get a ride with a squad flying axis in the fso. and the squads do not know what ride they will get until the orders have been sent out.

*edit* jg53 does not show up in the fso logs so, it doesn't look like your squad is registered to participate.

You can ask a squad In the FSO forum if you can participate with them, as gyrene mentioned you must be in a squad to fly.

Post by: SmokinLoon on November 01, 2013, 11:54:21 PM: Good fun! It was good to have something different than two swarms meeting in the middle. The "resupply" concept is something that can be developed further. I liked it! :aok

Post by: ImADot on November 02, 2013, 01:03:59 AM: Here's what I saw from God View just before some Yaks showed up. There's about 14-16 111's landing and rearming, and a swarm of 109's and 110's flying top cover (a number of them still out of the 3k icon range):
