LOL Creamo... I agree.  

Methinks we will have more of these historical adverary encounters in the SEA now that the groundworks been done... but I wonder; did the Italians ever up their Macchi's against the dreaded LW ??

Hmmmm... if they didn't; maybe now they have a chance. Why not get a gauntlet and smack 'em Creamo; see if they take up the challenge.

205  

As Gatt keeps pointing out, the Itailians mostly slept through the war. Macchi was primarly a big cot that could sleep 10.

This was due to the fact that the Itailians didnt know who they where fighting for on a day to day basis. Axis,Allies,Axis,Allies  

Allthough the Macchi does make a nice Art Deco cot

205-

Yup Wardog, but still the point without being histerical...um, Im mean Historical...

The point is, at one time I heard Thunder say, "Damn,this is a nice bird." (205)

And we did indeed destroy alot of sh*t...and often.

The 205 is a great ride with the proper wingman, that's all.

1776; thanks agin.. u guys were great in the 190's; gave us an excellent scramble.

The 13th TAS will be having a session in the training arena Monday night 8:00pm EDT. We will be doing much the same thing we were doing at the Sunday Rumble practice.

If any would like to join and fly either a FW or pony; stop on by. I assure you you'll get some good fights.
