Hi Spectre, You're all set for the Blue Team. Welcome! Make sure to check their area for the TS information. Looking forward to flying with you!

Very nice screenshots! Thanks for posting them Baron!

Hi Hanz Blitz, Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. You're cleared to fly for the Blue Team. Welcome! As I mention above, make sure to get the TS information from the Blue sections of the FIF boards.

I think Rose can be equipped with night vision goggles, and a Zafir with a Nightstalker optic.

http://www.titanichg.com/ For those interested. It's an in-development recreation of the R.M.S. Titanic, that allows you to try it out with an early demo. http://www.titanichg.com/demo/ Their goal is to completely map out the entire ship in as much realism as possible. Here is what they've done so far: http://www.titanichg.com/progress-plan/ I've walked around a bit, and it's extremely impressive. Let me know what you guys think! I personally can't wait for this to be fully released.

Hi theself, You're all set for the Blue Team. You should now have access to their area within this forum. Make sure to get their TeamSpeak information. Flying times are Saturdays at 2PM EDT. Looking forward to flying with you!

Thanks.

Hi Michal0045, I'll send you an email later today. Hope to talk to you more soon!

Very nice! It's great to be able to watch this. Especially since I can't fly on Saturdays.

Hi All, The FIF Admins are aware of the uneven pilot numbers during Session 5. We will do what we can in order to bolster numbers, and create a fair environment for everyone. Should anyone have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks! . . .

S! Everyone, The FIF Admins take the dead-is-dead rules within the Flanders In Flames tournament very seriously. And we are extremely appreciative that the FIF community has been so good at policing itself. You make our jobs much easier, and really help to create the fun environment that FIF is known for. During Session 5 of the current campaign, a Red Team pilot re-flew after death. This is a clear violation of our standing rules. http://forum.jg1.org/topic/2216-flanders-in-flames-ruleset/ The pilot in question has been banned from the upcoming Session 6 (which is to be flown on 23 July 2016). Should anyone have any questions or concerns, please direct them to either Butzzell or myself. We'd be happy to help. Thanks!

Great screenshots, Baron!

The rank of Offizierstellvertreter is a senior noncommissioned officer. It literally means "officer deputy". It compares to a Royal Air Force "Acting Officer" and a US Army Air Service "Warrant Officer".

Good idea.

It would be cool if you could interview your opponent sometime. Get his perspective on the events your watching. Kind of like two boxers talking about the fight on a replay.

Very nice video Barton! I can tell that you've been afflicted with throat trouble... as they sometimes say. For future videos, you may want to remove your opponents names. Or get their permission.

Hi Tree, Definitely. You're all set. Make sure to check their area for the Blue TS information!

Hi Wolf, It was great talking to you earlier. I'm glad that you and Baron are already in contact. I'll give you recruit access to our boards. Hope to fly with you soon!
