Vortex Weekly Squadron Report #6 

Today is Friday the 24th October 2003        
Last report on Friday the 17th October 2003        

 
Fiction for a good start:

I was sitting next to all of my other squadronmates in the corridor. The line of benches, now full of Vortex pilots was ending before large door. The plaque at the door said "Wing Commader's Office - LC Gilad Pelleaeon"

Our activity was low. Well... there was no activity at all.. We knew that - the the things haven't changed for several months. Nobody in our squadron was an example to follow for the others. Even the newly appointed Squadron Commander. I stopped my thoughts here for a second. Keiran tried to make us fly simulator missions, pass the courses and so on.... But he should do them too! In the last few weeks he seemed to be bored with his job. Now he was in The Office. Lieutenant Colonel Pelleaeon wasn't pleased - he expected honest and fair work from his subordinates. His voice was laud but the walls made the words notunderstandable. I wouldn't like to be in our CMDR's skin... We were all sitting in silence.
 
15 minutes later

   
Some words seemed to replay several times. I recognized them as "no activity" , "responsibility" , "not allowed" , "never happen again". The Wing Commander said them lauder than the other words.

10 minutes later

   
The door opened. Commander Laserlight left The Office withs his head down. He gave us a look of a man who just left the funeral of his best friend. I felt guilty of the situation here. It wasn't only his fault. Of course CMDRs are responsible for their squads and have to take all the punishment on themselves. He wasn't active too... Nor was I. Nor were the others. Now we should rise our efforts. Rise them dramaticaly. Rise them quick.

"Come on boys... Let's fly something!" - Keiran said to us. And then he left heading straight to the simulation chamber. 
 

Vortexian Leader's Office:

That's true - our activity is horribly low - even my own. I am worried about that. So this weekend is going to be a TC weekend. Try to do your best to make me proud. I'll do. Get prepeared for some heavy BSF job Gilad. I would like to see my subordinates flying too. Come on boys... let's fly something!

Some interesting NEWS:


- Fleet

1. COL Dax Corrin resigned as the Avenger Elite Squadron CMDR. His replacement has been chosen! The new AES CMDR is... LC Azazel! Way to go mate!
2. Imperial Storm IV : The Battlegroups Revenge status : We're at the middle of the war! Sovereign lost another CRV. We just wait for a battle to fly!
3. Wing V has been closed. Remaining members has been moved to Wing III.
4. The Flight Officer appointed a new Command Attache. Congratulations go to VA Reaper.
5. Wing IX and Wing XI Wing Commanders has been appointed. The names are MAJ Ky Terrak and LC Triji Boliv
6. By the order of our TAC we can still fly the old battles (.zip formatted) until the end of the year. Yay!
7. #tiecorps regained it's X. If you're WC or higher contact FA Cyric for ops. They didn't gave me one... What a shame...

- ASF/Ship/Wing

1. #wingxiii has the X too! It's working fine. Better for him and us ;)
2. Sarin is on a leave - escorting people...
3. I run a small competition in our channel. The point was to find Vance on his class photo. Kodiak found him. ... And the OPS approved such a silly competition...
4. Don't get eliminated.
5. CPT Justin started a new project - pass him the name of a country do you live if you have a second OK?
6. Competition ! IS-GW to win! Check the competition section of course.

 - Squadron

1. Activity is none. This week this has to change. I'll do my job - Will you make yours?
2. The Deadline for the Shield and Catch the Vortex in the Web competitions was 15th October. However no one decided to make an entry. The medals will be awarded for the first submission I'll get. The medals are now extremaly easy to win!
3. You remember what I was saying last week about the new guy? He lied me and joined Wing III. He didn't keeped given word. That's what I hate the most.
