My handle comes from Air Warrior days.

Hajo = Nickname for Hans Joachim Hermann leader of the JG300 Wilde Sau.

In Air Warrior I usually flew the 190A8. And I flew it like a bomber pilot:rofl

I did AOR (Album Rock) radio for many years, so I wanted something to reflect that.

When I first signed up on Air Warrior..."ROCKS" was already taken...bummer...

I had to settle for "ROX".


The 68th uniform was added upon joing the squad last March.

back before Al Gore invented the internet.... my drinking buddies and i decided we needed a way to find each other as the 4x4's we drove didn't get very good gas milage.. so we decided to get cb's.. while sitting in the local watering hole drinking down some cold ones and discussing handel possiblities a lady walked up and asked which of us cowboys wanted to dance. being the smart one in the bunch i told her that left me out becuase i was an outlaw not a cowboy. she ask what was the differnce and i told her a cowboy rode for 8 sec's then got off a outlaw would ride for days if the mount was any good.  the line worked so well that from that day forward my buddies refered to me as outlaw on the radio. when i started flying online we could only have four leters so started out as out3 in beta warbirds when they made it where we could get the full one in i made it outlaw and have flown undr it ever scince.

I started playing this stuff back in 98.It was AW then.I was reading a book "JG26 Top Guns Of The Luftwaffe".I was hard pressed to figure a name.I didnt want to use a pilots real name.For some reason I felt it to be a little disrespectful.A nickname would do though.I was reading about Josef "Pips" Priller at the time.They said he was a good sort that could make peeps laugh in the worst of times.Including "The Fat One" Herman Goering.I personalized it a touch and Ive been Pipz since 1998.Funny thing is I have people in the real world calling me Pipz:lol

When I was in AW everyone seemed to have a bird of prey name (Hawk, Eagle, Falcon, etc.)  There were none left so I became crash ('cause that's all i did early on), then later ^Crsh to conform to our squad names.

When I moved here I wanted an all new fresh identity and it was still pretty early on and since I'm older and... well, it just fit (and I finally got a bird of prey name).
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.
