Howdy Ammo.

I flew with the Blue Knights under "Nomadd" in the Warbirds Fighter Operations arena when the squad motto was "We Vulch, We Steal Kills, and oh yes... We Vulch"

Good to see you.

Blue Knights still around?


yes.  The BKs are rebuilding our presence in the skies.

Ammo! Good to see you bud!

Saw that hblair posted in this long thread too! :) Good to see you both and your doing well.

My best to you and your family.

I am around, but not flying much. :) Finally retired from the CM group. Peek in the forums now and again.

Daddog,  man it's been years.  I hope all is well with you!

I just checked this post after originating it months ago.  I need to work on my intrawebs etiquette.  Tell Ghosth I said hello!

Just curious. For personal reasons, I quit AH in 2004.  My decision was not based on the AH product at all.. great product with a lot of upside. My own agenda drove my decision.  I was an "addict" and realized I couldn't achieve my personal goals as long as I had an active online account. 

I flew in warbirds when it was pay-by-the-hour and it almost cost me a divorce... silly,huh?  I weathered through that period HiTech and Pyro estasblish Aces High.  So I migrated over to the skies dominated by the NiK1.  I can't remember the exact year but I estimate 1997-1998.

I had so much fun during those years.  I made some good friends; some I still communicate with.  I was part of the creation of the 56th FG (all Jug Squad) with a guy named Sancho. After recruiting some class act guys the squad enjoyed a lot of success in the MA and the SEA. 

So I'm wondering who's still around from "my era"?  I have seen a post or two by widewing.  I'm at a point when I can afford the time to play and I haven't lost my desire to obliterate an ME109 or FW190.  Are  any of the old hats still here?


I remember flying with you... and I also had to quit around 2004 for approaching divorce. After that I've been flying on and off - and the latest tour shows I've completely lost my touch. Gunnery is totally lost and for the first time ever I think my k/d is below 1 :)

  Dont feel bad. Took me several flights to realize that I had my secondary button set to auto pilot somehow and every time I went to fire cannon the plane would just lock up. I know when Im flying what buttons I use to use, but it takes a few flights to get em all straight lol.
