Another week has passed and the most urgent questions for us Kappans
is still where Astarosta might be. Hermann, who also lives in
Argentina, though several hundred miles away, is trying to find him
now - good luck with that, Hermann! I hope you can find something out!
Roasty's absence has effects - apart from the personal ones. I think
it's a bad sign for our motivation if only three of us eight managed
to fly TC 125, which was announced top-priority by our WC. I can't
conceal that I'm a bit disappointed here.
Good work Zyrax and Algy for holding up the Kappa flag in this part of
the MPB, well done! I especially want to mention Algy because he
managed to fly it although he obviously had a lot of RL stuff to do
(business trips).

A quick message to wish a very happy birthday to my CA, Admiral

birthday wish list was spankings from the crew of the Challenge...so
hop to it lads.

That's right! Since the beginning of the recorded AoT history, there
has now been exactly 1000 courses passed!! We are the first academy
other than IWATS to hit this mark! The lucky person to be the 1000th
test taker was Mejas Doto, who just joined and is now in DiploServe!


Congrats to all TTDR's past and present!


The AoT is open to anyone who wishes to expand their knowledge
