S3 Series

~S~ Gentlemen.

Be why it may let me lay out the reality of the expected bomber numbers this series.

"Only the Nomads and UMM are in a bomber role. Together we are only 6 pilots on the roaster."

100% participation is rare, some could have disco issues and others limited time.

I wish this could be different but hey if wishes were horses..

Just want to make sure all frame COs and planners are aware of the situation.

Salute!

The Nomads are still alive as "nomads".

Pd has thrown in with UMM, but Gofly, Gundoc and Gums are retaining our original squad membership for various reasons.

We can still fly as a three-ship on special missions, but our feeling is we contribute the most when attached to another unit.

We have had 3 pilots show damned near every frame in every S3 for about a year, so that's the number to use. THREE.

UMM has been averaging 1.x, that's ONE on average.

Hope that clears up things.

Gums sends...

I understood I would have 4-5 bombers that is why I asked some of the escort to go heavy.

Salute!

Yeh, Beaver. That's what we were planning for - 5 or 6 buffs.

We had a disco, a MIA and a late show. So I took Gundoc to blow something up, heh he.

Gums sends.....

For clarification,I will not make it the 17 nor 24 May. My Bride and I are taking our Daughter on a special trip for her 50th birthday. Will be flying to Seattle for a few days then on to a 7 day cruise to Alaska with multi ports to visit. Plan to go see the Boeing AC museum in Seattle, as well as other points of interest.
After a 2 year assignment at Grand Forks AFB ND, not sure why I want to go that far north again if the mosquitoes are even bigger:)

Just Get em!
