COLOSSUS REPORT
W/C 17th February 2003


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SHIP STATUS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The Colossus is currently in dock undergoing a general refit. As such all Wing VIII squadrons have been reassigned:

Mu and Pi - VSD Bombard
Omicron - FRG Kelly
Nu and Eta - A/FRG Imperator
Iota - FRG Onamo

During the first part of the refit the Bombard and Kelly will assist local law enforcement. This will involve patrolling the Aurora system and outlying regions, while the remaining ships guard the Colossus. When the refit is 50% done the two ships will return and the Imperator and Onamo will replace them on patrol.

As the refit continues the Colossus will be assigned new crew member, as each one arrives i'll be posting some information for all to see. Below are our first arrivals.

Don't forget to fly DB-TIE #11 for the next round and the Wing IV comp.

The search for a new Wing Commander is going well, and hopefully an announcement can be made by the end of the weekend.

The Operations office is no longer awarding Bronze Stars for flying, so this means a change to our weekly medals. For the time being the 80 missions for a BS award is dropped, though i'll continue to award ISMs and PCs. Those with outstanding BSs will be dealt will shortly.
This info and lots of other related things can now be found in the Wing VIII Basics section of the Wing Website.
