I think it was Trip who hosted Bigweek after AW died.  A few years ago he lost the ability to continue doing so.  The Bigweek crowd moved to Facebook, but I've lost track of them because I don't do Facebook.

I think you may be right.

If you didn't pay 6 bucks an hour on GEnie or more on Compuserve to fly the unfriendly skies of Air Warrior you will always be a noob.

I was prolly considered new, I waited until AOL hosted it. The PC I had before that def would not haul AW in any playable enjoyment.

Brother...You are just fine! I never knew you "In the good ole days"!   I do however know you since your return, and you are in FINE SHAPE and it came back QUICKLY!  Went from, "Muppets need a new drummer...." to "Who TF is that Pony Driver?"   in a matter of like 2 weeks or so? :rofl  Sorry Brooke...this feller is more a P38 guy!  Would love to have you in the Scenario, Animl.  :aok

I appreciate the compliments and invites, but right now, with my crazy not normal work schedule, it can be difficult to make some commitments. It would prolly be more of a Walk-On thing. I am certainly interested and I'm sure I'll make a few of them. Retirement is not far away, at which point I'd prolly become a pest. :)
