Wing News
-------------------------------------

Already usual "WC blabla" section will be short today. Some of you have already noted that a couple of last weeks I was sending out the Wing Reports on Monday ... such a decision was made to better refelect the results of the whole past week and to wait until all the Weekly Squadron Reports arrive to my inbox. Many times before I was repeating that WSRs are to be sent on Fridays, or at least Saturdays, but it appears that sending out WSRs on Sundays is more convenient for part of our CMDRs. So from now on the Wing reports (if there will be no objections) will be released on Mondays.

And hey hey hey! Attention Squadron Commanders! The Monthly Squadron Evaluation time draws near. MSEs are expected on 30th of November or at least on 1st of December. Please submit them to me in due time.

1. Colossus vs Avenger. According to Commodore Ari, our glorious Wing has officially won the competition with the pretty high Wing Total Score of 2,324,049 points. I must admit tho that our participation was pretty low and this should not happen again.

But! Have fun and lets party ... we won over the Avenger proving that raw power is stronger than force! Soon, very soon a brand new and more interesting test of our power against jedi force will have place, so polish your fighters and fix your flightsticks as for Colossus is going on a new adventure raid. [more details will follow during the week]

2. Eta vs Cyclone. The competition is over with Cyclone winning over Eta. As per CPT Brandon (current Cyclone CMDR) "Wooooo, it was a close run thing huh :P Looks like I managed to scrape together a victory by the skin of my teeth! :P Comiserations on your defeat, but congratulations for making us work our arses off for it :) "

Eta: Top Three average: 90745 Top Gun: CPT Drake
Cyclone: Top Three average: 96620 Top Gun: CPT Brandon

Eta is currently the smallest squadron in the Wing, but has currently proved herself as the most fierce one. Way to go assassins!

3. The Battle Cry magazine has started new round of competitions. Information on comps can be found at http://battlecry.ehnet.org/battlecry9/tc-mag9.html . Currently there are two types of comps: 1. Writing competition! and 2. Flying competition! So if you feel like your uniform could use more medals on it go and participate.

4. Mu CMDR. The applications are still accepted and the new Mu CMDR will be announced during the week.

5. Colossus Arena. Looks like our own Tie Fighter ladder is seeing more and more interest. Currently there are 5 challenges in progress on the Arena. Lohr Zadash, the current Iota CMDR topps the ladder with 88 points (somebody stop him! ;P).
With the departure of Captain Drake to the reserves of the Tie Corps the new Arena Master is Captain Troutrooper.

6. Colossus Elite 12 vs Praetorian squadron. As agreed with Rear Admiral Akagi this competition is postponed until "better times" ... Elite, watch out for a battle cry as for this comp can start anytime soon.

7. The second and last week of AWOL is over. Those who will fail to reply until 30 of November will be removed from the roster of ISD Colossus and sent directly to the reserves. This AWOL will result in loosing some pilots, but only those who are really active will stay.

As of today I have the replies from the following pilots:

This week

LCM Fox (Iota)
CM Kromtal Stormfyld (Omicron) checked in two times in a row ;P
CM Devin McCloud (Omicron)
LCM Dall Star (Omicron)
CM Shae Kitane (Iota)
LCM Anthony Starr (Omicron)
LT Jorfar Danley (Pi)
LCM Tyler (Eta)

Last week

CM Darkstar (Iota)
LT Daniel Stephens (Omicron)
LCM Wap Eal (Eta)
LT Alain Dindareanu (Eta)
LT Crevent Thrawn (Omicron)
CM Kromtal Stormfyld (Omicron)
CM Owen Nivarian (Pi)
CPT Troutrooper (Eta)

Mu ... Mu got zero replyes ... nada ... null. Mu! Wake up ... you have time until 30 of November to drop a simple letter into my inbox. Is it the change of command crisis or the squadron is sleeping?

Pi ... 2 replyes out of 8 ... Not very good ah? Niv, I'll contact you soon ...

Omicron got 6 replyes from 8 possible. Pretty decent.

Iota got 3 from 8 possible (tho better say 7 possible as for SL Shino joined us just today), and finally

Eta got 100 % replyes (Nic Rety is not counted as for he just rejoined Eta).

CMDRs please make sure every pilot in your squadron understands the importance of this event and reply as soon as possible. I will contact all and every CMDR on the 1st of December providing the awol pilots list.

8. Promotions, assignments and awards/misc.

CM Kromtal Stormfyld (Omicron) - PC
CPT Troutrooper (Eta) - ISM

CPT Drake (Eta) - transfered to the RSVs ... indeed a great loss for the Ship, we all hope Drake will be back soon
LCM Jague Philu (Omicron) - transfered to the RSVs
LCM Nic Rety - transfered back into Eta ... welcome back assassin!
SL Shino Kisaki - joins Iota squadron straight from Daedlaus ... welcome onboard Shino!

LT Daniel Stephens (Omicron) has completed IWATS mIRC 1 course with 90%
LCM Tiger (Iota) has completed IWATS mIRC 1 course with 100%
LCM Tiger (Iota) has completed IWATS mIRC 2 course with 90%

9. Officially approved BSFs count for this week - 27 (now where is my chainsaw?)

10. Top five FCHG pilots -

[832] CPT Troutrooper
[769] CM Shae Kitane
[649] MAJ Chei-Ras
[563] CM Darkstar
[391] COL Oldham

11. Membership count: 37

------------------------------------------------------
Squadrons summary
-----------------------------------------------------

1. Mu squadron

Mu's still recovering from the shock after the "Dark Talon case" and it being suspiciously too quiet these days. 0% replyed to AWOL and this truobles me much. Lets hope the new CMDR will put the squadron back to its glory height.

2. Pi squadron

Pi 's also being rather quiet these days. CMDR Niv released the BoW to the squadron, but prolongued it until the next Friday seeing little responce from the squadron to the BoW. Get Pi in gear Niv ... and dont forget I got nothing but 2 replyes from Pi on AWOL.

3. Omicron squadron

Most of our Omicron boys were on the leave this week giving their CMDR McCloud time to think over interesting ideas and plans for Omicron life. Expect something new next week in McCloud's report ... Looks like he got a candy inhis pocket ;P

4. Iota squadron

Iota squadron's been quiet this week exept for their CMDR Lohr Zadash who is terrorising the Colossus Arena looking for some points to add on his rating. New pilot came in and we all hope this young SL will soon become a true Colossus warrior with the spirit of the unbeatable imperial officer inside.

5. Eta squadron

Small in numbers, but big in spirit and moral Eta lost a great pilot to the reserves this week - Captain Drake. Drake gave lots of time not only to his squadron, but also to the Wing ... Good luck Drake and return soon! However this week an old Eta member Nic Rety returns onboard the Collie and into the Eta of cause.
