Archangel

Heads up, we should have a little JTF2 spice in our mix tomorrow!

I loled. It was funny to me. I have some questions for y'all though, and If you guys have any questions about American Football, feel free to ask me.

That tank is pretty old. seems legit. perfect for Opfor

RES, AS IN RESISTANCE
 
 
 
 
 
I THINK

So, Here's how it works: Once a week, we will Schedule the Flight tests. Sign up here, and we will put you on the board.
 
The Flight test is drastically different from any previous version you might have been privy to. Three Ghosthawks will fly infantry to a nearby town, drop them off, then offer support while the infantry engages enemy infantry. When the enemy is eliminated, the Infantry will move to an extraction point, and The Helos will pull them out. That's it, Mission Complete. Sounds easy, No? You try.  
 
Now, for a bit of technical stuff, the reason the test took so long to make, and the reason that version was abandoned, was because the test was large and elaborate and designed to run with as few as 2 test staff and 1 tester. That one hit so many brick walls, that I got burnt out and gave up. Now, we have this test, which works much better, and best of all, is complete, however, here's the catch: we need a Test staff of at least 5 people, with optimally 8, and can support up to 12. Wowzers!
 
So, We need volunteers. For every test taker, we will need a staff of 2 pilots, and 3 ghosthawk gunners. On top of that, The test will be a lot better if we also had: 3 other gunners, as well as a pilot and spotter for AH-9 Pawnees (2 of these are available)

IT'S FINALLY READY!!!!! ATTENTION!!!! THE FLIGHT TEST, I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON FOR...6 OR 7 WEEKS IS FINALLY DONE*!!!! SIGN UP!! SIGN UP!!! ALL OF YOU'S!!!!!
 
 

Howdy, Y'all!
As some of you may know, we here at Ahoy have been efforting putting together a Flight test that'll give you guys a chance to earn those wings and the status of accredited Pilot.
What is the significance of the ACCREDITED PILOT stamp you'll earn? Well, at the moment, nothing more than bragging rights, as well as a nifty little pin in the TS channels you'll get, that hopefully will fill future passengers of yours with the utmost of confidence that you'll deliver them safely, and in one piece, to their deadly, deadly LZ's.
In the future, however, we may consider this test as part of the admission process to Ahoy's Flight Club.*
So, this is the place to sign up for testing, as well as discussing any questions or comments you might have about the flight test, and putting forward any ideas you might have for an eventual flight club.
Lastly, I want to make sure everyone understands that this is not meant to lead to any exclusionary or unfair practices. Accredited Pilots will not by default have any special rights or privileges in our public servers. I think everyone can agree that one of the hallmarks of our community is the presence of an equal playing field, and we do not aim to disturb that.
*not yet a "thing", but it's on our radar

Just to offer a hand of support to any would be "new Pilots"

Good catch, Danny... perhaps you will have a gun Saturday.
 
As for everyone else, I've spoken to JTF2, and it seems 15:00 is a little early for them here in the Americas, so would we be okay pushing the mission start back to 17:00 UTC?

An update with all the final details regarding the Op. would be awesome please Just asking because I looked on the JTF2 site and they have the mission scheduled at 12 Noon EST which means the time must have changed as the original was posted as 15:00 UTC but noon EST would make it 17:00 UTC.

Bruce, let me tell you, flying a helo full of doomed souls into the depths of an AO is an my specialty. I approve.

*narrows eyes with disdain and contempt*

You people...

Our base was overrun and most of our forces destroyed. We're lucky to be alive, and you people want VAS?

You know what, Danny? I think you fell during the retreat. Yeah, maybe tripped over a rock or something and broke your gun. Sorry mate, looks like you're starting the mission unarmed.

Lol.

No but seriously, the slots have no specific designation. We've all been promoted to Rifleman. There will be 2 squad leads, so you guys can ask for that here.

All of us will start with 343's. I'll put up radio stuff tonight or tomorrow.

Love,

Archangel.

In, out, in, out, shake it all about 
 
Sounds good, packing my mags in prep now, pointy bits go forwards right

Oh sure, yeah, he listens to you, but I still can't get him to take out the trash once a week. Pfft.

I'll second the idea of pulling out the UAV's and replacing them with 2 CAS UAV's.
increased liklihood of UAV operator's working WITH infantry.

Hoax. As hero of ahoy, I will give you a pass on practice, this time. ;P

Welcome to Ahoy world. Remember: have fun and be cool. *smokes a cigarette*
