Just for fun, we're still playing trivia! Thanks muchly to CM Chris McCollum who is moderating this for me this month. Trivia works thusly:
The Pilot with most correct answers will receive 3 points, the second 2 and the third 1. When two pilots have the same number of correct answers the one who submitted first will get the point.

At the end of the month the pilot with most points will receive an IS-SR, the runner-up an IS-BR. The third in line will get an extra point for the next month’s contest.

~Fleet News~
We are Tornado Squadron and we dont care.

~From the Vault~
Hidden deep somewhere in the Challenge is a giant safe hidden from everyones eyes, inside are detailed files on the EH Command staff (and other staff) and what can be used as discriminating evidence, as well as lots of infomation and Kessler's private pic's of several cadets (YUCK). Only few know of the Vaults existance even fewer have the combination to get in, Master is lucky enough to know it, so for you heres a small snipit of info

Red Six's Flight Recorder Recovered From Yavin

The newly formed Imperial Survey Corps today reported on their successful reconnaissance of the orbital space around Yavin IV, and it seems that the Flight Recorder of Jek Porkins, the Rebel pilot known as Red Six, has been recovered from the debris zone surrounding the last known location of the first Death Star. The following is a transcript of the last minutes of Red Six's flight.

Porkins: "Red six standing by"
[fumbling noises and the distinct sound of a zipper being undone]
Pfssssst! [massive glugging gulps followed by a large belch]
[crackle of plastic wrapper]
Pop! cruch crunch.
Red Leader: "Cut the chatter"
Porkins (mumbling): "cut this you SOB"
[loud vibrant Pooot!]
Porkins: "aaaah, damn!"
Red Ten: "I've got one on my tail"
Porkins (Muffled): "shit"
[another raucus fart]
Porkins: "Whoo! I'm with you Red Three."
[choking]
Porkins: "I've got a problem here!"
[several farts]
Red Three: "Pull up Porkins!"
Porkins; "I can hold it."
Porkins(muffled): "damn nachos"
[more farting]
Red Three: "EJECT!"
Porkins: "I can hold it AAAARRRRGHH!"

Analysis of the wreckage indicates that Porkins forgot to take into account the weight of the pork pies, hostess cupcakes, salami, leg of ham, cheesesticks, bucket of coleslaw, bratwurst, beef jerky, doritos, Cadbury's Milk Chocolate Bars, pork rinds and bacon sandwiches he had stashed in the glove compartment.

If only he hadn't eaten the bag of salted peanuts before he took off, he'd never have been able to get the X-Wing off the ground and would still be alive today.

Kiss my ass, fatty!
