-All Tempest pilots are encouraged to participate in the Third Annual Tempest FCHG race! This FCHG race will award an IS-BW to the pilot how manages to increase their FCHG score by the most in the course of a month! The current standings are as follows:
Locke - 114
Chris McCollum - 40
Master - 36
Dirk Logan - 16
Rover - 0
Prost Varsis - 0
The race is starting to pick up! Personally I had a lot of free time the past couple days, but that won't be happening the rest of the month, so if you guys want to pull this thing off it can still be anyoine's game!
-A Training Session Competition is being ran by the WC in a effort to see how the squads to against the current Black Eagle Flight. Now, I'm a part of this Flight, and I'll be honest: I won't be going easy on you guys. But, if any squad is gonna be able to beat us 4 hotshots, it'll be this squad! I am making the TIE mission for this comp, TIE-TC #233, mandatory flying, so get to it! Deadline is the 26th of June!
-Recruit! While 6 is a good number, it is only half of what we could be :) If you have friends or such who like Star Wars, get em in here! If you meet some guy in the Zone who seems cool, get him in here! More pilots the better!
-If you guys have a comp idea, send it on over :) I always like trying new things, as you guys should well know as I invented TIE Golf as well as throwing speed comps down your throats long before they were used as Wing comps ;)
-The first big news story for us is that RA Sephiroth announced COM's Own for the Month of May, and I am very proud to say that the Month of May was a complete sweep by Tempest Squadron! Congrats to Colonel Master for being awarded Pilot of the Month, congrats to myself for being awarded Commander of the Month, and congrats to each and every one of you, for we as a whole have been awarded Squadron of the Month! :) This is a great start for us guys, now let's see if we can't push the bar even higher and continue to push for excellence! :D
-Second big news story is the long-awaited new Tempest webpage is finally up!!! While there's still a few more things I want to add to it, at the moment everything is working fine and going good. Check it out over at http://tempestsquadron.mine.nu/. And yes, you all should reconize the layout somewhat ;)
-While most of you may not have noticed, our Squadron citations skyrockted this week to 61. The main reason for this is COL Master, who has created a list of battles each pilot can fly that would give our squad another citation, which CPT Chris McCollum and I have been testing out along with him. Soo, if you guys are looking for some battles to fly, please try to take some time to fly one of the ones under your name :) The citation list is as follows!

-Twas a pretty quiet week this week, with not a whole lot of action in the Wing circuit... don't worry, I'm sure something will explode soon ;P
-The EH Message Boards are moving over to http://theholo.net/mb/. I haven't decided yet if I want to revive the Tempest Message Board with all the EH ones, or provide my own funky Tempest one which I can control more. Perhaps we shall hold it to a vote later this week :)
