I'm not sure about everyone on the list, but didn't NoBaddy fly here in Aces High a while back?

Yeah, NoBaddy used to fly AH but I haven't seen him in a few years.  So did Snowman, was the head trainer in the beginning but left the game.

     Swear I haven't seen NB since Hurricane Rita.  Recognize a few of those names, but my senility
is kicking in.  Plus the Damned was freaking huge....they even let me in for a bit.

The absolute BEST AW Macro I ever saw is one I also stole from the original macro creator:


"Had my TURKEY, had my PIE now it's time for you to DIE!  KILL"

Has been a while since I have seen some of my squadmates in that portriat, have been seen online or the boards or the damned mail list....

Snowman never did any Training ( Officially ) here in AH, we did bring our whole group here in late 2000/early 2001, we would practice in the head to Head rooms for long periods regularly to get used to the plane characteristics and difference of AW FR & AH's flight modeling before we came online ino the MA's and TA ......... around 15 + of us were here in AH starting around October 1999

best of my recollection, Lonestar, Dingo, Hunter, Stymy and EggsAckly never made it to Aces high best I recall...... but I did not become Damned until like late98/early 99 after Snowman and JD agreed to merge snowman's new squad "The Eagles" in with the Damned, right before AW went to EA..... ( hmm......... wondering if EggsAckly is not Egger aka Kegger ??? )

A few of us are still flying carrying "The Damned" markings...... while other Damned members have moved on to fly with other more regular consistent flying squads.......

TC & "TC" in AW since 95 .... TC still here, and there still is "The Damned" squad  maybe 2 wings still......

Hey Phan, did ya'll get any snow down there yesterday???  just curious we had a little but nothing stuck......

Happy Thanksgiving , everyone

<S>

      Nothing in Charlotte, although they did get a little just northwest in the mountains...sigh.  I miss
snow a little sometimes.  I guess it would be selfish of me this week though, as Carolinians freak when
they get snow and this is a big travel week.

     Have a great thanksgiving TC!

That's the way to do it. Who's the caricature artist?

(I'm a 97. Me and AWIII made our debuts simultaneously.)  :D

I'm thinking its GE's handy work... The F4U with FOOL's callsign on it seems familiar... Notice there
are 7 different Damned wing designations around the outside of our mascot.... iirc some were on the Mac AW while some were from the pc side of AW as well as from different ISP's.... I do believe

I knew GE did planes but I didn't know he did caricatures, as well, TC.  :salute :cheers:
