Wing XX FCHG race #1
 
Basicly, fly as much as you possibly can! All FCHGs count, but missions are easier to count :P
 
Current leaders: Bryan, and Alsdyr. They have flown massive amounts of missions, but can still be caught (*hint**hint*)
 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Commander's Club: July 2004
 
This award is for most missions flown in a month. Bryan is the current leader.
 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Last competition: Clash of Titans!
 
Yes, we are taking on the Relentless. I expect nothing but complete victory. I know you guys can do it. But now I want you to prove it. You win, we all win. And the Wing IX banner is changed to one saying "Wing IX was PWND! by Wing XX". But, it's the same the other way around. Ok? Good. The competition details can be found here:
 
 
And dont worry, Im also particpating :P

Squadron Summer League:

This year's Summer Patrol begins today and is open to the fleet! What's the Summer Patrol? Well, like last year's patrol (which was a Sovereign only competition) it consists of a weekly patrol of missions and battles to choose from that lasts 8 weeks long. Pilots are free to sign up by flying a battle or set of missions and submitting them to the moderators.
Sounds easy, right? Last year we saw a large group of pilots participate in this patrol but only a handful survived on the last week. Those who do not submit their pilot files for a week are automatically dropped out and the patrol continues on without them.

Those who do survive this patrol of weekly flying are awarded the Iron-Star Gold Wing.

This week's patrol starts off fairly easy. Your objective is to fly one of any of the 15 battles below. Each of these battles is four missions long. Next week may be a little more demanding.

TIETC-121
TIETC-24

TIETC-103

XvTTC-50

Submit your Summer Patrol pilot file for this week to tieknt@juno.com and "dweezil's" with the header "Week 1 Summer Patrol (ID LINE)"

Due date: July 25th (Sunday)

Good luck and I hope to see you out during patrol.
