Featured Replies

S! All,

The following JG-I pilots are being recognized for their actions during Wings 2018 event (originally scheduled to be flown on 16 June 2018).
 
Even though the event was postponed due to technical difficulties, the contributions of these pilots towards the readiness of JG-1 cannot be understated.

Congratulations!

Although the party was cancelled, we were definitely prepared for the ball. It was very refreshing to see the unit come together to prepare for the DiD competition, I was very impressed.

 

Thank you to all individuals named above as well as Pfeil and Baron for offering their Viggen skills in the mix. Interestingly enough, if either Baron or Pfeil was on in an alternate form, we could have offered you up as the flight of 4 Viggens from Wardogs lost a pilot between the second and third start attempt.

Cool medals!  Extra special meaning here, few will be able to claim to have one.  Great to see you guys getting some recognition in the squadron news section for once!  It takes a better breed to be able to become proficient in multiple sims, or even just in the complex jet sims.  My hearty congrats to all of you folks; at times the rest of us could get a glimpse of the hard work being done in the other areas of the squadron, even without access to those sections of the forum.  S!!
