He's retired but I still sometimes call him by his rank. He was in the Air Force for 20 years.

Do me a favour Crash... just tell me in this thread what you think the "solution" is.  I want to discuss it, but I don't remember what you posted or where, I there is not a search function that works anymore.  (That I'm aware of).

Why?  Start an argument over how it wont work?  So we can all waste even more time debating it.  So I can spend hours substantiating it to the endless stream of people who won't fully read it and make sure they understand it before posting their objections....no thanks.  The information's out there for anyone who wants it.  BTW there is a search function.

No, but I played one on TV;).  Actually, I was in Space Command, flying satellites.  Before that...well, if I told you I'd have to kill you:D.  I've got all of about 13 hours in Cessnas, though I did get to take the stick of a T-6 Texan for a while once.  Aerobatics!  Most fun I ever had with my clothes on.

You are right, there is a search function.  I found something you wrote about making the CT more "scenario" like, but I'm just guessing that's what you are talking about.  I'm not sure I would like something like that, but I'm not closed-minded about the whole thing.  Shame you don't seem willing to discuss it.

20 years here too, 4 active security police, 16 Air Guard, security police, transportation officer and then supply officer.  Gettin ready to go back in this month or next as security forces again only this time as an officer.  I'd like to get at least 10 more in if its possible.  Not sure, I'm goin back in as a captain most likely.  I'm due to pin on major soon but I'm inclined to postpone if possible, dont wanna go back into a new field (as an officer anyway) too high in rank, no good for the af and no good for me:)  
Only have a few hours in cessnas here too but I'll be changin' that once I'm back in.  I may actually have time to do it then:)

Okie Dokie Leph, ya got me.  The difference is in fact organization.  Two sides flying historical terrain and a/c with realistic military objectives.  Thats it, simple.  How do we make it happen in the ct, well one of two ways.  We run a mini scenario once or twice a week or someone at htc runs one as often as possible.  My vote is for htc to do it and I dont mind payin a buck or two more a month to make it happen.  We have open singups the week before, everyone gets tossed into a unit and we go.  The days we're not runnin one people will come to the ct to practice.  Once we get rollin' people will submit scenario ideas like mad and I would be inclined to be very liberal with regard to what gets run.  The more reasons you come up with not to do something someone suggested the less likely people are to make suggestions.  Its a game, people have fun even when the scenario's poorly designed as long as they get to fight.
     If I know that every wed and fri night theres gonna be an organized event in the ct I'll plan my flying time around it.  People who didnt sign up will very likely come out of the ma to play reducing the load in the ma.  Squads will plan their squad nights around it.  Its lookin' like for the CT to work this is gonna need to happen.  
     Its my view that htc should provide the organization. As far as I'm concerned they could have left it 30 bucks a month and provided more service in this regard, but hey, who am I?
