Title: An Aces High Historical Milestone has been achieved!
Post by: swareiam on August 25, 2018, 08:20:05 PM: :airplane: 6,000 Confirmed Kills :aok :rock :x :cheers: :banana: :cool:

An incredible historical milestone has been achieved within the Aces High Special Events community.

Last night during Frame 3 of Against All Odds: Germany 1945, the Arabian Knights achieved a milestone in Friday Night Squad Operations history. The AKs are the first AH squadron to attain and document 6,000 kills in FSO participation. This historic level was achieved when AKSofty downed Nefari's BF109G-14 from a B-17G, which was AKSofty's first recorded kill of the night.

In addition to this milestone the AKs were able to achieve 1st in objects destroyed, 1st in squad kills and last but not least 10 AKs launched for operations with 10 AKs recovered by the end of the mission.

We would like to welcome the Aces High Special Events community to celebrate with us this most momentous occasion.

It has been a pleasure to service with and battle against some of the best sticks in simulated aerial combat anywhere in the world. The AKs thank the Aces High CMs, FSO Staffers and the entire Aces High community for allowing us this opportunity.

We know that 10,000 kills is right around the corner and we hope to see you off our wing or at the end of our cross hairs in the near future, Thank you.

Best Regards,

:salute

There was some good escorting going on. Went back to view film to discover I was tangling with lilmak in a P47 after I made a few passes thru the formations...

I feel that since I escaped with my life I deserve some sort of medal. THAT in itself is an accomplishment. :banana:

WTG AKs!!! You guys always put on a heck of a show.

Haha! Yep. Wasn't my plan though. I've noticed that merging at odd angles with Occulus Rift is still difficult for me. Was kind of hoping he would blow up before I hit him :D

Good show! Congratulations AKs!
