Good to see you guys back in the game tearing it up!

FSO could always use a dedicated bomber group..

Thank you, sir. We're still at it. Trying, anyway.

91st still has our door open for more members who love flying the heavies. We're on more during the weekends, so you'll probably catch me, Zener, or Stomplab on Bishop vox 191. We've been doing a lot of other things besides bombing.. We go with whatever the situation is at the time.

Very soon toward the end of the month, I'll be on vacation, so Zener will have the ball for a while.  :D

Would be great to see you guys commanding He 111s in The Hardest Day. <S>
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

For the next few weekends, I won't be. I have things I need to catch up on, which includes family time, then I'm on vacation to the other side of the planet. Be back in the States in mid September.

XO Zener has the ball.

Hello again, folks.

With the influx of "Steamers" checking this game out, 91st is still looking to do its part. Our recruiting door is still open for those who have a thing for heavy bombardment, and would like to learn how our our particular bunch goes about it.

Our X.O., Zener, has command at the moment while I'm just about to go on vacation this week until mid-September. We are reachable on Bishop vox 191, or you can message him here. We have a current roster of eight members. Our squad nights are held at 8pm Eastern.

We once held around 30 members (that's 90 B17's the way this game is engineered if all of us were on  :D ) in our bomb group in Aces High 2, and commonly had fighter groups volunteer their time to escort our missions in the Main Arena. We're still working to replenish our ranks.

If you're interested, stop on in and hang with us for a while. <S>

See ya' when I get back.

A new guy was looking for a bomber squad to train up with.  I recommended he look up the 91st.  Good luck fellas!

Thanks, Waystin..  <S>

Also, I should clarify my squad night statement a little better in my earlier post. Sorry, my coffee had not set in yet.  :D Squad nights are Saturdays @ 8pm Eastern.

Just got back from vacation in the real-life Mindanao (Davao City area), and just got done with squad night on the virtual Mindanao.

Had a great night with Zener and our newest member, JRiffle. Duked it out with Snailman (Lusche, I am thrilled to see you back.  :rock ) and a few others as we bombed a few factories from 28K and limped home. It's good to be back. Fun stuff.  :D

Yeah, Snailman, great job evaporating one of my planes first pass and getting me so off course I couldn't even drop on my primary target.  Good to see you back in the virtual skies, sir <S> !  Some good attack runs by those 190s - 3 of them I think plus another (F4u?).  Shot the living ^%$@ out of my control surfaces on the surviving planes.  Took me 20 min to land because the only way I could descend was gravity with engines off  :confused:

That's the kind of missions we like.  Fight all the way in, do a little something to the target, fight all the way out, and put some barely flying scrap metal back on the runway.  :aok

I had a great time flying with you all and the fight we had with a good group of foes was good fun. Thank you Zener for taking the time to train me.

The great thing about this game is there are people willing to help out in every country and even across country boundaries.

As our CO (ThndrEGG) has posted a number of times in these forums, the 91st BG will help anyone wanting to learn in the area of our primary focus - bombing.  We were pleased you chose to fly with us and you are definitely a great addition to our squad. <S>

....the 91st BG will help anyone wanting to learn in the area of our primary focus - bombing. 

Saturday, 8pm eastern, Bishop vox 191, squad night. Door is open for those who'd like to see what we're about. Strategic and tactical formation bombing, gunnery.. every mission and sortie is different. We never know what situation we will run into next, and we never know what the outcome will be. Takes a bit of patience, but the eventual run into action is worth it.
