99, F99th

OK everyone, Blue Flag has been on the cusp of a blue victory for the past few days. We always need just that last little push that, for one reason or another, we can't manage to attain to smash the reds and win the mission. I have work in the morning but will be flying the mission in the afternoon. If we could get as many members of the F99th as we can muster and maybe some of the squadrons friends together on blue perhaps that will give us the edge to really break the reds backs and send them high tailing to Anapa. Sweeper has been there kicking ass and taking names and the rest of our Eagle Drivers have been providing yeoman service in the campaign so far. We could really use the services of our outstanding dedicated ground attack squadrons plus those of our skilled helo drivers as well. It would be great to have all of the F99th active in force and will show that we are truly a force to be reckoned with. Another advantage to this is that this is great team practice for the upcoming Joint Warrior as well. I'd like to see the F99th make a real difference and be THE reason blue wins Blue Flag Round 5. Anyone want to roger up help us win this?

I'll be around..

How do we go about capturing FARP's Cities and Airbases, is the CTLD stuff the way to do it?

I got a Flanker kill with my Huey tonight... Woot! I found myself directly in the middle of a slow speed turning fight between an Eagle and Flanker at Sochi... Flanker got the Eagle and I got the Flanker. We really could have used some competent CAS pilots tonight. I spent over an hour sitting in my Huey 1.25 miles from Sochi waiting for the blue forces to get their heads out of their asses and clear the objectives so the helos could capture the field. It took sweeper switching from CAP to CAS to get things rolling again...

Tried to get in on that but server was full. =/

Wanted to fly Sunday morning but my son got sick so I had to take care of him. Was able to fly this morning and PO1Ruia hopped in as well for a sortie with me. We did a supply run to Sochi and rescued a downed pilot before the server mission change. Next mission rotation we made good progress and I ended up parked just outside Maykop for the last 40 minutes or so waiting to drop my troops off and capture the airfield. Red forces had started to really push back and slowed the momentum we had built. The reds discovered me in Maykop just before the server mission change so while I was being flushed out of my hidey hole I ran across two red SA-6 sites and made short work of them... Huey Iron Hand! Was fun when blue finally sorted things out and got moving with capturing objectives. It would be nice to see some F99th ground pounders on to clean up the target areas.
