I guess come June 7th you aill need a new name as you will no longer be STUDENT NAVAL AVIATOR

Too cool! Congrats!

Good galley over on the air field side.

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

Yeah break the sound barrier over Decker's house and a flyby over a "general's daughter" j/k. Lol!

Congratz, SNA! yeah, it does seem you may need a new callsign at that LOL! A nice array of aircraft as well..*turns green with envy*

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!

I keed! I keed!

Oh, you pick up JG yet?

V/R

Chief sends

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."

hmmm Do i trust a pilot who usted to ram me in virtual airplane with a super expensive plan payed for by our tax money. SURE! Very Kool SNA Congrats!

So now that you fly a grey bird what does this mean?
