Just put in for a B-25 slot, but if you need fighter pilots I'd be up for flying the P-39 as well. :)

You should stay in B-25's, as they are your first choice and are a very important role in the scenario.

It must be, out of the thousands of Aces High players, that a mere SIX MORE can join me in La-5's for glorious battle! :)

Ok Brooke, you got 1 more

Comrade!  Welcome to the team!

Please start flying the La-5 as much as you can in the Main Arena.

I need 6 more brave La-5 pilots to join us!  :salute

Total # russian pilot slots for scenario...  152
Total # german pilot slots......  144

Math not your strong suit?   :D
Allies: 70 players registered out of 152 available positions.
Axis: 118 players registered out of 144 available positions.

Maybe reading isn't yours? And actually, that's shot up by ten or fifteen players on their side since last I looked.

Gentlemen, if you don't mind, I'm trying to recruit six more La-5 pilots into my 229 IAD squadron, not trying to host a debate.  :aok

Can't wait to have an LA-5 in the gunsights of my 190!!!   :t

So the Germans are putting tail guns in their 190's for this battle?  ;)

Nothing to debate, just illustrating the need for pilots and keeping your topic at the top. :)

Like I said, Moray, I feel bad the numbers are looking one sided. Makes me want to get out of bed with 3 hours sleep to fly for the under dogs.

(btw Moray, that was some pretty big 'fail' on your part)

Have those darn deadlines around the same time @ work and school.
Otherwise I would fly with this squadron, those numbers are not looking great.

A brief allegorical interlude.

A guy stands there, chatting up a gal, when a few of his pals come up behind him.

A first says, "Fred, buddy, I really hope you get a date with her.  It's been like a year since you last had a date.  That's totally not right."

A second says, "Actually, you're wrong.  It's only been four months."

The first says, "No. *You* are the one who's wrong.  Here -- this is a picture at his last date, and the timestamp clearly says . . ."

Meanwhile, the woman has fled the scene.  :cry

And now back to our regularly scheduled program.

La-5's.  Yes -- La-5's and the glorious 225 IAD.

We shall cut a bloody swath through the skies above Germany!

Six more dedicated pilots are needed.  Only six more.  Who is with me?

For glory and the Motherland!
