Congrats Sir!!

Lets try not to break any of the planes this time around. I should expect a high speed flyby down my street sometime soon? LOL

Awesome! We'll have to meet for lunch some time. I'm down the street in Hangar 2 with VFA-25. Older Legacy 'C's, but not everyone can fly the hot rods. ;)

Congrats on picking up Rhinos! Apparently they haven't watched a track of you trying to dog fight the Chief! :lol:

I keed! I keed!

Oh, you pick up JG yet?

Eh, I hold my own against you Crash, as long as its not a Spitfire, you seem to have that bird figured out. Anyways, lucky for me, if anyone yanked on the stick like you do, they would black out right away and I would just slip in behind them and put an AIM-9 up their tailpipe. I've got a year as a JG already. Get promoted to LT next May. Send me your contact info. I can't stroll up to VFA-25 and say, "Hey, I'm looking for Chief Crash from IL-2."
