I remember flying cover for the 91st back in the day (when I was vSYKES) in Devils Brigade. Welcome back Thndregg..

Here's a little inspiration.. escorting two large bomber formations back in 2013.

So far over the past month, we've seen some great, albeit small missions as a few of us have rejoined the 91st, trying to bring to AH3 the great amount of fun we all had in AH2.

We're slowly getting there. Our ops night has been moved slightly to Sundays, 6pm Eastern.

XO Zener has been working steadily at providing resources for the group's use (website, custom maps, etc..) and of course we are definitely recruiting- looking for folks with patience and a genuine interest in high alt, strategic heavy bombardment. We invite you to tune in and check us out.

Welcome back 91st!

Don't see you folks in FSO yet ... If any of your crew is looking for an FSO Squad with which to link up,  have them PM me, and we can have them try a test ride.  All we ask is that folks do their best to communicate and execute per plan -- we are kinda pedantic about that (We do what our CiCs ask us to do...or die trying)

Getting ready to roll another Squad Ops tonight @ 8pm eastern with our heavies in the Melee..   :airplane:

We're still quite small in numbers at the moment (currently eight on the roster), so the door is still open to folks interested in the high alt level bomber aspect of AH. Fly with us for a while, drop in on our squad ops tonight (on the good side of the fence, please  :D ), while we form up, make our run, and provoke a high alt fight against the the Knits or Rooks. ;)

Many of you remember our glory days in AH2, the massive formations (sometimes called "frame rate 'hell'), escorts, sometimes teaming up with fellow bomb groups like the DHBG, and some great opposition pitted against us (<Salute> guys ). We're hoping to rekindle that again...

Feel free to stop by, or if you hear of a player interested in what we do, send them our way.

So THATS why ThndrEGG insists I carry butter and sour cream on flights into Knitland... they're for those Zoneytaters he loves eating.  :D

Haven't flown AH in years but decided to stop by the boards today to see what was going on. Really glad you guys are making a comeback. Some of my best memories online are from flying escort for you guys with the 82nd FG back in the day. Thndregg and crew are stand up guys and I highly recommend flying with them if you get the chance.

I really hope we do make a comeback. To be honest, AH3 is very much more a "tough room" and a ghost town than #2 because the vast majority of "old hands" are just simply gone, and the newer folks never got to see what we (the 82nd, the 91st, the DHBG, the 125th, BOP,... my gosh, the list goes on.. ) did back in AH2 that resulted in an enormous amount of fun for all sides of the "fence". How many HUGE missions did we all team up with, and fight against in those days? ;) Not just solely bomber/escort runs, base takes, late-ride fighter sweeps, etc.. but a whole host of odd ideas outside the box.

Lately, we've experienced some very sporadic small-scale successes, and we'll still keep the 91st it going in the hopes it will grow again.

I hope that, soon, HTC will rediscover their subscriber base.

It is still a great game.

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

FSO could always use a dedicated bomber group..
