Talon reviewed the performance reports on his pilots and he admitted to himself that they could endure vast improvement. The TieCorps had grown complacent in the past few years and it was time to take the fight to the enemy. He called in Colonel Corrin and Captain Blackheart to his office.



"Reporting as ordered sir." Talon looked at both men. "Colonel I am placing Captain Blackheart as the Flight Leader of second flight. I will be placing Colonel Yoda in your flight."



He gazed out the viewport of his office for a moment and then looked back at his flight leaders. "I want to see improvement by the end of next week gentlemen or I will boot every single pilot out of this squadron and replace them with green Lieutenants if I have to. Dismissed."




News:

After a week of being your commander I am overly pleased with some aspects and utterly annoyed with others. First I would like to congratulate Captain Horus Blackheart on his promotion to the position of Flight 2 flight leader (Report to me with Flight Activity on Wendsdays Captain).



I would also like to congratulate Colonel Corrin on his fine activity. He has participated in two of the Colonel Uthers competitions and continues to set the example for each of you.



AWOL check ends in nine days. Three of you are set to be AWOLed due to total lack of contact and three more of you I want to see some kind of activity from or a damn good reason why you cant or you will also be added to the list. The Tiecorps is full of enough dead weight taking up roster space. I rather have n00bie Lieutenants who are willing to learn then complacent, lazy vets.



I am getting the squadron back into multiplayer activities. Captain Blackheart and Colonel Corrin as well as myself all have the 3d mod for XWA and are about ready to start flying against eachother. If you are interested in the mod for XWA, email Colonel Corrin or myself.



Still looking for input on Squadron and individual flight mottos. Flight Leaders I expect to have your flight mottos by next weeks report.
