Pretty much the same kind of post, but different day..

But, as always, the door is always open to bomber enthusiasts who have the patience to make this aspect of the game work. We do a mix of short runs and long haul heavy deep runs, mostly with B17's, but occasionally with others. We're very relaxed, but we try to implement a good sense of coordination and teamwork in our missions. Drop in on Bishop vox 191.. check us out.

Old thread, but I'm going to be coming back - missed this game!
Downloaded Flight Simulator 2024 last week, tried it a little and thought to myself "Wonder what Aces High is like these days?!?!"
Waiting on support to try to get my old account back <fingers crossed> since I have no idea what the login was and no longer have the old email I used to use.

I don't get on the BBS much, and I'm not able to get back in the game yet as my laptop is in the shop with a graphics hardware issue. Be back as soon as I can, I hope. <S>

Finally got my hardware problem remedied. MSI gaming laptop needed a new screen. Long haul strat flights will resume shortly.  :salute :airplane:

<S> Egg.  It's been a while.  You never know, one day I might bring a Mossie back for a run.

Solar!! <SALUTE>, sir. Yes, it has been a long many years since we were on the same channel. Good to hear you're still around. Yeah, if you're on Bish, I'm on vox 191 with the guys, mainly on weekends.

I still get occasional messages of interest in joining our group, so I thought I'd give another shout. You're welcome to stop in on Bishop vox channel 191 and fly with us. The door is always open, especially to more dedicated heavy bomber pilots. B17's are our main platform, but we've flown others - B24's & B29's, for example. Stop in and check us out. <S>

The good old 91st. To many good, fun and exciting missions.

A little update on that, buddy. I've had passing thoughts about you & I doing missions together along with the gang. Sorely missed.
I've tried over the past two years or so to bring it back in some form with respect to having not been in charge for a long time, but it just ain't taking.

So, I've taken myself out. I intend on flying with the DHBG for awhile. 91st, if you remember, has flown B17's with them in the past - we called it "frame rate hell" - there were so many involved. I've already done several long-haul runs with DHBG and their escort group.

It remains to be seen whether I may decide to start another small BG of my own. I've already got a squad/group name in mind and hope to try again with having a little fun around a core specialty regarding targeted precision demolition with just a few others.  :D  :cool:

We will see.  <S>
