Iron Mission Creation Results Match #3
19:16 - AD Frodo

VA Locke Setzer the last minute entry for IMC played round 3 in place of LC Ric and won! Congratulations Locke, although LCM Impulse did give an excellent performance.

The winner of the flying challenge was COL Brucmack again! Medals were reccomended.

Unfortunately, due to a few inconvenient circumstances we're going to have to wait until Friday for the release of these two missions, hence, there won't be a flying challenge this week. I suggest you all participate in the FO Comp instead.
