Hi Baron, Krafft is all set for the Blue Team.

Copy and paste error. All fixed. You should be seeing red again.

This is fascinating! Thanks for posting it.

PS: Daryl's House is great.

Those are great cuts Vonrd! Always a big fan of Booker T. When my wife and I were driving through Memphis about 10+ years ago, we got the chance to see the Stax Musuem, built on the location where Booker T. and the MGs recorded Green Onions. It was amazing. Honestly, the list of artist that had recorded at Stax is amazing too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stax_Records#Stax_artists

I love the Enuff Z'Nuff video! I remember seeing it on MTV. Great song!

Very sad to hear that Malcolm passed.

I have to admit, I am excited about the possibilities. I'll pre-order Bodenplatte and the two aircraft. And I'll start trying to get some stick time in BoX. It does suck that Flying Circus basically means RoF will be abandoned. But, from a development standpoint, it basically is already. I guess it's a de facto / de jure issue. Provided 1C / 777 can give us a clear way forward, I think WW1 can survive in the the Great Battles framework.

S! All, The following JG I pilots are being recognized for their actions during Session A3 of Flanders In Flames 2017 "Fall Campaign" (flown on 11 November 2017). Congratulations! . . .

For me, I've been listening to The Sensational Alex Harvey Band. For those who haven't heard of them, SAHB was an influential band from Scotland. They predate AC/DC by about a year or so, but you can definitely hear how they influenced Bon Scott. The mime guitarist is Zal Cleminson.

Hard to believe we're coming up on 2 years since both Bowie and Lemmy left us. Great cover.

That's a great medley! Some awesome tunes there. Anthem has always been a favorite of mine. As well as Bastille Day and A Passage to Bangkok.

Hi Wilhelm, That's a great photograph! There is a cropped version of it within Above the Lines, by Norman Franks, et al. The description is: It's also on page 103 of The Illustrated Red Baron, by Peter Kilduff. It's also cropped. But here is a photograph (as best as I can do):

Yes, thanks 4Speed!

Hi Wilhelm, It's great to hear from you again! I'm not sure if you remember me, but I flew under you in Jasta 6, circa 2000. I was also one of the people who moved on to create II./JG 1. As Butzzell says, you are more than welcome here. And you have nothing to apologize for. I'll drop you an email today, just to send you the current Dicta. But as Butzzell says, there isn't any need for a membership review. We'll get you squared away in no time! Welcome back!
