SQUADRON NEWS:

- ECR Round 4 is still on. With Darksaber's daily warnings, I don't think we have any excuse not to get 100% activity on this one. So far I got files from Ezop, Jari, Deimos, Bobecc, Nuno and myself.
- It seems like Kapp Dendo, former Phantom pilot, is not dead after all. Mr. X, as we call him, who made several clones, said they were dead, and even said one of them was his fiancee, has been expelled from the EH and banned from all message boards. This upsets me because Spear had to make armbands for two of them; honour Kapp Dendo on one special report; I had talked to one of them a few days before he was "killed" and his words were in my mind for a while; and another one died in a car accident on the same day I enlisted on a driving school, which wasn't very "inspiring" :P
- Hotshot returns!: one of our most commended pilots, who was inactive due to computer problems since I got here, is back and he's flying like hell! I'm talking of no other but LCM Jari, who not only flew XWA-Free 40, but also managed to fly 2 battles this week. I never saw so much enthusiasm on someone, believe me :)
- Enemy pouncing offensive neutralized: Ghost squadron's pouncing on our Message Board is over. I congratulate all participants for a job well done, including those who were not part of Phantom, namely Gutt, Spearhawk, and Malik (sorry, I can't award any sort of "Phantom Collaboration Medal"). Roguewing ended the pounce with dignity, which he has accostumed us to, thanking everyone as well for bringing new life to the Immortal message boards. You know, if me, Toran, and DS put stuff like "Quotes of the week" on their reports, it's because of Roguewing, who's an inspiration for leadership. We salute you, Ghost CMDR.

SQUADRON STATUS:

- Everyone is ordered to fly XWA-Free 40 and deliver it to Darksaber ASAP. Remember Werdna's first victory? It on the flying phase of the last ECR, where we all grabbed 1st place and escorted the BGCOM to the Relentless. Lets do that again! Deimos wants this victory so badly that he flew XWA-Free 40 3 times just to get the score as perfect and inside the desired average as possible :D
-By a strange coincidence, the only pilots who haven't flown this mission are the 2 Marks! You guys are clones or something? Get to your ships! ;P
- Competitions approaching: I'm planning some comps for after the ECR round, both for flyers (Deimos: Let me have'em!) and non-flyers (Deimos: doh! | Spear: I'm heading back in!). Stay tuned.
- Challenge CM Mark for the title of Phantom Ace.
