All,
I am posting to announce the passing of a squad in AH. As of today the 13th TAS is off the game. The members of TAS have split into separate squads and will continue to play with skill and determination. They look forward to seeing your six on their twelve at any time of the day. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
I have struck the colors and will fly under a different banner when I can. You may hear from time to time the battle cry "SHOWTIME" as TAS never really leaves your system until the last flight West.
<SALUTE>

They will be missed. Always could count on them for good battles, good sportsmanship, and good fun.

The spirit of the 13th TAS will live on.
Grommit (AKA Yeager) has formed the **1st Combat Group** and has already signed Beemer, RWY and Sax
I have formed the 412th FG "Nightmare Mustangs" and have signed Pugg666, Vruth and 7SinS.
You will still see Mustangs in the skies (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

13th TAS was a good squad, and the **MOL** send a salute.
Good luck in whatever new squads you all move into.

Voss is flying under another handle. I don't know what it is. If he wants to drop the anonymous feature he will.

S! to the 13th!
Sorry to see such a skillful squad disband. There were a few in there from my old sister squad from WB the 901st.
Big huge S! from the 900th!

Very sorry to see the 13th go as well. I was 13th TAS in AW DOS, WBs and here in beta. This is a very old Squad spanning 12 years and 3 sims,sad to see its gone.
Good luck to you guys in your respective Squads.
Dog out.............

JG2 always had great melees with the 13th TAS.

When a squad has a history like this one it sure is sad day to see it fading away.

No one flew the pony better as a squad...<S>
-
Yep, it really is bad. Why does it seem that all the great squads self destruct over time? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)
Why did voss change his handle?
-
think he changed it to sturm6.

Very sad to hear Mav (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)
I very much enjoyed pitting my meager 51 skills against the likes of you, Ice, Thunder and Midnight.
Hopefully a couple more of you come over to fly Rookland every once in a while. Theres just not enough good 51 pilots here. Even got a chance to wing with Midnight for the first time a week or two ago and had a blast doing it. Its amazing what kind of damage a pair of 51s can do when flown smartly. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
Like I ever fly a 51 smartly (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif). I cant seem to remember that the 51 isnt a zeke (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Just a guess as I haven't talked with him lately but perhaps he finally got tired of some folks who cannot put the past behind them, particularly in an unrelated "game" environment.
I think it was a wise move and I congratulate him for it.
If there were no forgiveness what kind of world would this be?

Salute from an old adversary, Mav.
I really couldnt stand the 13th Tas in AW. Really. Something about Doom's tactic of pushing the new guys out in front of him as bait probably. Could never understand why you and Ghost put up with it.
It's funny what time does cos I'm still sad to hear they've folded.

Mav, I was thinking I would resurrect it later. You can write me on that.

Voss and others from the 13th. My reply is in the old squad forum.

Just a few pictures of the past preserve the heritage of the 13th TAS!

Salute to all the past members... Ice wherever you are... Thanks for your leadership... It was the finest Pony Squad I ever flew with!
Thunder
-
You mean Ice quit?? I hope not, I like him.
-
I am not sure.. heard he flies from time to time.. maybe under a new handle. He was one of the best pony pilots in the game.
Thunder
-
Not trying to be nosey, but you guys don't even know what happened to each other? How long were you all flying together?, musta been some bad blood there er somethin, too bad.
-
Don't think theres any bad blood at all.. I know and respect every ex 13TAS member... I know that Ice wanted to spend some more time with his family and wanted to enjoy his style of flying when he occasionally got on. I respect that and admire him for it.
Even if I did know his handle.. if he even has one (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif).. My tounge would be cutout and a wiseguy named Guedo would visit me and break my kneecaps if I revealed it. hehe

Well...
Looks like I'm over a decade late to the disbanding party. Stumbled on these boards by accident and seeing such a wide spread of familiar names from my sim flying days brought more than a few fond memories back. Hope some of you are still around and if you are, you have my sharpest *salute*
Thanks for letting me be part of this community :)

I remember when squads like the 13th tas roamed the skies, and everybody was in a squad like that. One of the things I noticed when I came back to AH was that most players didn't seem to be in a squad, and of the squads that did exist, only a couple seemed to behave like squads.

2 original 13 TAS guys left that I know of. I'll let them pipe in if they wish
-
As a former member of 13 TAS for a number of years, I'm very sad to see them go. In the height of our membership, we were a great bunch of friends. Yeager, Pugg, and all my former squaddies... :salute
-
Well I am from the AW Dos era but I must say I was very very impressed to discover how long it lived after over the many other sims.
Good memories for sure :)
