    My grandfather was a captain flying a C-47 over the burma hump.
    Sorry I didn't know how to edit the BBcode in order to provide a smaller preview image. It was huge.

    If you don't know much about the hump it's a pretty interesting theater.

    Unfortunately my grandfather died in Feb 2008. I am grateful that I now possess his flight gloves, an original cloth RAF set of wings and one of his captains bars pin.

    When we were talking once he said one of the weirdest things he carried over The Hump was a load of plastic bugles. He supposed they were to boost the moral of the troops. I had heard of ocarina's being issued but not plastic bugles. He had a lot of interesting stories.

    For his 70th birthday my aunt purchased for him a flight in a P-51. He was downright stoked about that present.

    Just played inside BoB for 1 hour and achieved only 100 kills. There's only couple of P40 and the rest are dlc planes with 4 skilled players including myself. Tough fight.

    I really suspect GN is shared by more than one players. Even if I can have whole day to myself, I just can't spend more than 2 hours total time in the day on this game. This will be hyper dry and boring to only play this game if given a free day to do anything u want. There's so much better things to do in free day.

    I think GN really deserved to be no1 looking at his intense passion & love for this game.

    Maybe GN is short for SGN! And it's them constantly testing stuff!

    I'm only half serious. Well, mb 1/4 serious. I mean what if, is all.

    I'm just sayin'.

    Do you remember how many deaths you had?

    I've been in a funk lately. I think that when I first started playing because I was playing a lot of other people that first started playing. Now people are more experienced so the KD ratio is a bit more difficult.

    I can't take note of number of death when I go for high killls. But my overall avg is always stay at 5.3:1, fluctuating around this value.

    Note that death = message that say u're killed by someone, regardless of your bailings. Ie, if u bail out and someone killed your plane within 3sec, or u bail out after someone killed your plane, it's a death count for u. The only time it's not a death count is when u bail out after your plane health drop to less than 80% and your plane self destruct after 3sec, and there's no message that say u're killed.

    Lol. And the 4 zeros probably represent 4 players, each covering shift of 6hrs per day, and each shift has a quota to met.

    V has switched from Zero to Spitfire. I just had a FFA with V and Gaff Wiscott, who is a very good Spitfire pilot. So the top3 are spitfire.

    Let's form a spitfire clan. Fast u interested? We can call our clan the Red Lobsters!

    Ok. I'm not serious. :D

    Well, since we already have our clan, perhaps you could be the Red Lobster Wing of Sgarrista Air Brigade.

    The Battle of Britain in Eygpt is really a party that never ends. I just done 150 kills in that room (actually is 2 sessions of 75 kills each - gotta take a break inbetween). People leave and the next moment new player come in.

    Shall we see who has the least players in the BoB room when he's inside? Current record holder is Tm, who have reduced the number to 3(not sure if this number include himself) before fresh new players flocked in and filled up the room. :D

    Have u accepted the invitation to be SAB member? I'm looking forward for your entry.

    I can't form the Red Lobster wing as I have converted to Cosair which I find my killing rate improved (but not kill death ratio which has slightly degrade). With time constraint, I prefer high killing rate than high kdr.

    Nowadays I'm seeing a lot more light blue planes than the usual brown planes.

    GN-0000 can be killed. I have killed him and seen others killed him, like any player in the game. The guys played 6 hours each. They are 4 guys sharing the same iPhone, so I suspect.

    I think u qualify to be SAB member if u really interested. U just need request to join.

    The RAF later has the Corsair also, with the RAF symbol that looks like a target board for enemy to aim at. So I'm still in RAF... until my country declare independance and I'll be in RSAF. :D
