Hey Squadron Report for December 23rd through 29th 2002.

Hey Hey! It's time for another Hey Squadron Report. Not too much in the
way of news, not too surprising though is it? :) Anyway, let's do it!

SQUADRON NEWS
-------------

SL Derek Klivian filled out his INPR as I mentioned in last week's report,
and has recieved his promo to LT. Congratulations! Drinks are on you, but
I'll buy the first round.

The Hey Squadron Top Ace Competition proposed by CM Maw'la is pending
approval, so it may not start on the 1st of January, like we'd hoped. More
on that when it's approved.

LoC system update
22:06 - SA Astatine [jpboyce@indigo.net.au]
The database has been updated to correctly reflect the new LoC system. In
addition, the code now also correct calculates the number of addons you

after it. A similar update has been applied to the display of DFCs too.

Merry Christmas!

From everyone in the Flight Office to all the TIE Corps: Merry Christmas and
