"LEADING THE BSG UNIVERSE"
Hi everyone,
I'm posting our next mission as a discussion because our squadron page is soooooooo busy at times that a message posted soon ends up on the next page and nobody would know it's there!!!!!LOL
Keep up the great work Tiger's after all, We're Flying, They're Dying!!!!!!!
SO SAY WE ALL! ! ! ! !
“Attention” Flying Tiger’s
This is the back story of our mission tomorrow night. The message exceeds the length allowed so it’s being posted in two parts. Please read part 2 just below this message.
Our squadron has grown to 19 pilots of which 10 have earned their wings. In the beginning, missions were flown only by pilots with wings. I decided that it’s better to allow everyone wings or not to get involved. An active member is a happy member.
The mission Saturday night will be squadron maneuvers. We will form up in our individual flights in Diamond formations and then Delta Formations to perform precision flying maneuvers. These two formations are flown by the Blue Angles during all of their air shows. The four and six plane formations are a perfect fit for our Viper squadrons aboard the Raven. I added a few images so you get the idea of what the Diamond and Delta formations look like.
It’s very important for a Viper squadron to continue to hone its skills until we become as Admiral Kane put it, “Razors.” It has been said, there is safety in numbers. The standard formation flown by the Flying Tiger’s offers superior safety and fire power in combat as long as the formation sticks together.
Our new pilots have completed their simulator training and they are now ready to climb into the cockpit of a real Viper to log flight time before they earn their wings. The same thing was done in season 1 episode 4 Act of Contrition of the RMD BSG. Starbuck took the nuggets out to practice their flying skills and the Cylons showed up on the scene. Starbuck ordered all of them back to the Galactica but Hotdog turned back to fly as her wingman during the battle and claimed his first Cylon kill.
The same thing will happen during our mission on Saturday night. The only difference will be that no one will turn away; we all will attack the Cylons together!!!!!!!
When our mission is interrupted by the Cylons, the Extermination/Re-cycling segment of the mission will begin.
The mission will be performed in the Forum Chat area on the home page of the BFC at 10:PM EST tomorrow night.
Everyone is welcome!!!!!!
8-24-2013 Tonight's Mission Briefing
“Attention” Flying Tiger’s “Attention”
Our new pilots have completed their simulator training. They are ready to climb into a Viper cockpit for the first time to complete their training and earn their wings.
We will form into our individual flights first in Diamond formations and then Delta formations to perform precision flying maneuvers.
It’s very important for a Viper squadron to continue to hone its skills until we become as Admiral Cain put it, “Razors.” It has been said, there is safety in numbers. The Finger Four Formation flown by the Flying Tiger’s offers superior safety and fire power in combat as long as the formation sticks together.
We will practice until it becomes second nature as if we were one!!!
Any Questions?
Skids up in fifteen on the starboard flight deck.
Dismissed!!!!
