I remember he wanted a base that had no vehicle spawns into it and a river midway between it and the nearest friendly field.

CptDell simply upped a LTV, said "I'll get back to you guys in an hour when I am in position", and rumbled toward the river.

An hour later, he comes back on and the claim jumpers hit the town hard, furballed a bit, and drew the enemy back away from town which allowed Dell to take the town.



That was one of his specialties.  I personally don't know of ANYONE who would regularly do this.  CPTDell had no problems doing this and I'm sure got a "WTF!?" reaction from folks on the other side. :D

I did not know the gentleman but all the tributes told me me he was a good man.

I wish I would have the chance to known him.

Smooth air for you.

Dell was an amazing person from what i have heard and experienced talking to him in game.. He deserves the memorial flight. Although i do not play Aces High anymore I will do my best to attend the memorial flight scheduled. <S>
